Nonindigenous Plants' Database, Army Lands Inventory

The Army Enviromental Center (AEC) gave the Waterways Experiment Station (WES) the task of developing a database covering noxious and nuisance plants because there is no central database on nonindigenous plant species on Army installations. There are a few databases that exist that identify the composition of vegetation at some military installations; however, these systems were developed to account for threatened and endangered species or for management of lands that have been disturbed during training operations.
