So this particular area in New Haven seems to retain its forest floor terrain surface much longer than all other areas. Other areas, forest floor, which is not covered by trees, convert to dirt and grass in around eight years, whereas this area is still forest floor after more than ten years. I haven't been able to find an explanation to this in my analysis.
Admittedly, this is cosmetic and a curiosity at worst, but I'm still interested to see if someone has an explanation to it.
