In order to describe the vegetation of the Jepirachi windfarm (Uribia, Alta Guajira), samples were taken from 24 September to 1 October 2001. The plant community in the area is mainly composed of Castela erecta, Prosopis juliflora and Opuntia caracasana. In general, the predominant structure is of sparse coverage, moderate abundance and reduced height. Most of the scrubs are distributed on the terraces, denudation surfaces and dunes, very exposed to strong winds. Winds induce xeromorphic characteristics in plants, also causing processes of anemomorphosys.
