Promoting Native Vegetation and Diversity in Exotic Annual Grass Infestations
Exotic plant invasions are especially problematic because reestablishment of native perennial vegetation is rarely successful. It may be more appropriate to treat exotic plant infestations that still have some remaining native vegetation. We evaluated this restoration strategy by measuring the effects of spring burning, fall burning, fall applied imazapic, spring burning with fall applied imaza...
متن کاملPost-fire seeding on Wyoming big sagebrush ecological sites: regression analyses of seeded nonnative and native species densities.
Since the mid-1980s, sagebrush rangelands in the Great Basin of the United States have experienced more frequent and larger wildfires. These fires affect livestock forage, the sagebrush/grasses/forbs mosaic that is important for many wildlife species (e.g., the greater sage grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus)), post-fire flammability and fire frequency. When a sagebrush, especially a Wyoming big...
متن کاملResearch Note Shrub Microsite Influences Post-Fire Perennial Grass Establishment
Woody plants can cause localized increases in resources (i.e., resource islands) that can persist after fire and create a heterogeneous environment for restoration. Others have found that subcanopies have increased soil organic matter, nitrogen, and carbon and elevated post-fire soil temperature. We tested the hypothesis that burned sagebrush subcanopies would have increased seedling establishm...
متن کاملShrub Microsite Influences Post-fire Perennial Grass Establishment
Woody plants can cause localized increases in resources (i.e., resource islands) that can persist after fire. We tested the hypothesis that burned sagebrush subcanopies would have increased seedling establishment and performance of post-fire seeded perennial bunchgrasses compared to burned interspaces. We utilized five study sites in southeastern Oregon. The area was burned in a wildfire (2007)...
متن کاملPost-Fire Vegetation Response in the Bishop Pine Forest at Point Reyes National Seashore
The eff ect of the 1995 fi re on the regeneration, composition and cover of the Bishop Pine (Pinus muricata) forest at Point Reyes National Seashore is examined. The human-caused fi re burned over 12,000 acres in and around the National Seashore engulfi ng most of the bishop pine forest along Inverness Ridge, where fi re intensity was the greatest. Bishop pine is a closed-cone pine that typical...
