A DYNAMIC AND STOCHASTIC PERSPECTIVE ON THE ROLE OF TIME IN RANGE MANAGEMENT [PDF]
This chapter uses a new ecological-economic approach to analyze the role of time in range management in a dynamic and stochastic setting. We first construct a theoretical model of a parcel of rangeland in which time restrictions are used to manage the ...

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Endangered fish species, such as Delta smelt (Hypomesus transpacificus), in the San Francisco Estuary are threatened by a multitude of anthropogenic stressors. Tidal wetland restoration can partially mitigate these stressors by increasing food availability of aquatic invertebrate prey, but the efficacy of restoration remains ...

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.Abstract Land degradation is among a serious ecological problem that results in decreased land productivity, including soil nutrients and microbiota. Soil and water conservation (SWC) practices such as micro‐basin, Fanyaa juu, and soil bund construction are widely implemented to combat this degradation by reducing erosion and retaining water at Kara ...

Assessing forage mass using smartphone imagery for cereal rye under grazing conditions in Nebraska
Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 1, June 2026.Abstract Managing grazing efficiency requires reliable and practical tools to estimate forage mass. Traditional methods like clipping, though accurate, are time consuming and labor intensive. In this study, two imaging tools, Canopeo and the Crop Canopy Image Analyzer (CCIA), were evaluated for their efficacy in estimating the forage mass of cereal rye
