| Comment |
Nonsorted stripes, both large and small, occur on slopes of 5-6?, downslope from nonsorted polygons or nonsorted nets. In some places the vegetated and non- vegetated strips are equally wide; in other places vegetated strips of 0.3-0.6 m are spaced from 3 to 4.5 m apart. They can be several hundred metres long.
