Black Carbon Aerosol Size in Wild‐, Prescribed‐, and Agricultural‐Fire Smoke
Abstract Refractory black carbon (rBC), a primary aerosol material, is radiatively significant and a uniquely useful tracer of aerosol processes. Here we present analyses of open‐burning generated rBC size distributions observed both from a research aircraft and from ground‐based sampling.

Growth and age dynamics of juvenile plants of a dominant shrub in North American drylands
Long‐lived perennial species in drylands tolerate a range of environmental conditions over their lifespan, but young plants are more vulnerable to stressful conditions than mature plants.

Ecosystem resilience is evident 17 years after fire in Wyoming big sagebrush ecosystems
Recent policy has focused on prevention of wildfire in the sagebrush steppe in an effort to protect habitat for the greater sage grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus).

ECONOMIC EFFICIENCY VS. DISTRIBUTIVE EQUITY: THE "SAGEBRUSH REBELLION" [PDF]
The purpose of this paper is to interpret, from the viewpoint of an economist, some of the causes of the ‘Sagebrush Rebellion,’ a contemporary land reform movement directed toward the Bureau of Land Management and its control of the public domain ...

Evidence of Ringtail Expansion Into Idaho, USA
Given more than 20 years of incidental sightings and multiple detections during our survey, it appears that ringtails have expanded their range northward into southern Idaho and could be considered a resident species in the state. ABSTRACT Ringtails (Bassariscus astutus) are widely distributed in the western United States and across much of Mexico, yet

Saving the sagebrush sea: An ecosystem conservation plan for big sagebrush plant communities
Vegetation change and anthropogenic development are altering ecosystems and decreasing biodiversity. Successful management of ecosystems threatened by multiple stressors requires development of ecosystem conservation plans rather than single species plans. We selected the big sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata Nutt.) ecosystem to demonstrate this approach.

Moose indifferent to canopy loss from forest disturbance by bark beetles
Moose showed strikingly similar patterns of habitat selection before and after widespread forest disturbance following an infestation of bark beetles. Our findings indicate that beetle‐kill does not appreciably alter habitat quality for moose and highlight the importance of riparian areas in sustaining moose as they contend with changing forests ...
