Downy Brome (Bromus tectorum) Control for Pipeline Restoration [PDF]
Invasive Plant Science and Management, 2015 Energy-extraction disturbances entail soil handling and often have large edge-to-area ratios. These characteristics should be considered when designing weed-control strategies. In western North America, many energy developments coincide with infestations of downy brome, an annual grass that severely curtails productivity, diversity, and habitat value ...

Season of grazing interacts with soil texture, selecting for associations of biocrust morphogroups
GeodermaLivestock grazing, a widespread land use in semi-arid systems, is often placed in opposition to the perpetuation of biological soil crusts (“biocrusts”: lichens, mosses, and algal crusts including cyanobacteria) that live on the soil surface and provide ...

Fertilizing western rangelands for ungulate conservation: An assessment of benefits and risks
Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2015 Intensive natural gas development causes habitat loss that reduces nutritional carrying capacity for ungulates and other species of conservation concern. To offset habitat loss from energy development, wildlife managers are experimenting with large‐scale

Integrated Management of Downy Brome (Bromus Tectorum L.) Infested Rangeland
, 2013 Invasive weed species are a threat to the health and functionality of many rangeland systems. Downy brome (Bromus tectorum) is an invasive annual grass that affects the productivity of rangelands by decreasing the grazing capacity for livestock as well as altering the wildfire cycle and competing against more desirable vegetation for limited resources ...
