[net.bio] Need primary sources on effects of slope on plant distribution.

A friend of mine needs some help from those of you in the Biology communnity.
Her plea follows...

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I am doing a project on the effect of slope on plant growth and distribution.
The weeds I am studying are:  Bermuda Buttercup (*Oxalis pes-caprae*),
Chickweed (*Stellaria media*), Sweet-Scented Bedstraw (*Gallium Apperimum*),
and as yet unidetifiable species each of wild oats and thistles.  While
it would be very nice to have sources dealing directly with the effect of
slope on these plants, anything related would  be helpful.  As the end of 
the semester is *RAPIDLY APPROACHING* I would appreciate information as
soon as possible.
                                                     Thanks in advance,

                                                     Angie

Since she has no access to the net, I am posting this for her.  She has spent 
quite a lot of fruitless time searching here at Berkeley, but she might have
missed something.  Anyone with information that might help please respond to my
account via e-mail( ucbvax!ucbtopaz!phoenix ).Thanks.
