Earlier fall precipitation and low severity fire impacts on cheatgrass and sagebrush establishment
In arid and semiarid ecosystems, invasion by exotic grasses may be driving state changes in vegetation defined by losses of native shrub communities.

This figure shows the true habitat type of Dryophytes suweonensis that this paper aims to demonstrate. ABSTRACT The Suweon treefrog (Dryophytes suweonensis (Kuramoto, 1980)), a critically endangered amphibian endemic to the Korean Peninsula, is widely regarded as being closely associated with rice paddies.

External ecotones are local hotspots across cultural and natural landscapes. Floral composition reflects external ecotones and regional species pool influence. Patchy mountain croplands are essential for long‐term conservation strategies. ABSTRACT The Mountains of Central Asia constitute one of the world's most vulnerable yet least protected ...

Decadal effects of fuel treatments and annual grass invasion on sagebrush ecosystem carbon stocks
Abstract Fuel treatments are implemented across large spatial scales in sagebrush (Artemisia spp.) ecosystems of the US Intermountain West to limit wildfire risk and spread, but treatment effects on ecosystem carbon storage remain poorly understood. Fuel treatments can reduce aboveground carbon storage and may also influence belowground carbon storage ...

Biosecurity risks from weeds in crop seed lots imported into Canada: prevalence, trends, and herbicide resistance [PDF]
The international crop seed trade is a major pathway for the unintentional introduction of non-native invasive plant species and herbicide-resistant weeds, posing biosecurity threats to agriculture and ecosystems.

Phenology forecasting models for detection and management of invasive annual grasses
Non‐native annual grasses can dramatically alter fire frequency and reduce forage quality and biodiversity in the ecosystems they invade. Effective management techniques are needed to reduce these undesirable invasive species and maintain ecosystem ...

Group effects of a non‐native plant invasion on rodent abundance
Cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum) is the most prolific invading plant in western North America. Investigations determining the impact of this invasion on population state variables and community dynamics of rodents have largely occurred at the community or ...
