· Conservation Assessment of the Southeast
Coastal Plain of North Carolina, Using Site-Oriented and Landscape-Oriented
Analyses
Stephen P. Hall and Michael P. Schafale with John T. Finnegan,
March 1999
An analysis of the southern portion of the North Carolina Coastal
Plain done in partnership between NHP, NC GAP, and the NC Museum

of a comprehensive set of native ecosystems. Identification of
information gaps was also an important goal of this project.
This publication is also available on CD at a cost of $15.00.
