Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 2, February 2026.Abstract Snow in the Great Salt Lake Basin is a vital resource for regional agriculture, municipal water use, and the Great Salt Lake. Accumulation of light absorbing particles (LAPs) on mountain snowpacks results in lower albedos and earlier melt compared to clean snow.

On the difference between exclosures and enclosures in ecology and the environment [PDF]
, 2008 Rehabilitation of degraded land in arid and semiarid environments often involves excluding livestock from degraded sites, creating what are usually but unfortunately not consistently, called _exclosures_.

Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 2, February 2026.Plant communities in two working rangeland mixed‐grass prairies were tolerant of implemented drought. However, plant functional traits within individual species shifted towards those that indicate drought avoidance and tolerance when rainfall was limited. One site and three traits shown for brevity. To understand how ecosystems like mixed‐grass prairie

Using SamplePoint to Determine Vegetation Percent Cover in a Sagebrush Steppe Ecosystem [PDF]
, 2017 Multi-temporal satellite imagery can be used to map species level vegetation across large areas. This is due to the fact that plants have unique spectral signatures in the electromagnetic spectrum and satellite imagery collects data from specific areas ...

Temperature‐dependent pollinator‐mediated selection on floral thermoregulation
New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 1716-1726, February 2026.Summary The thermal environment is one of the most pervasive agents of selection. Most plants cannot choose their microclimate, so understanding how they cope with thermal variability is of critical concern. Several floral traits can modify the floral thermal microenvironment, which may alleviate negative impacts of thermal extremes on gametophytes and

Desert sagebrush-bunchgrass steppes of Central Kazakhstan
Vegetation of Russia, 2016 The considerable vegetation researches of the Kazakhstan steppes were realized in 1957–1959, 1964–1968. The vast materials with relevés of desert steppes’ communities were collected in according to the generally accepted methods of geobotanical investigations either with assistance of detailed field routes or at the scientific stations (Kratkoe…, 1952;

Biochemical processes in sagebrush ecosystems: Interactions with terrain [PDF]
The objectives of a biogeochemical study of sagebrush ecosystems in Wyoming and their interactions with terrain are as follows: to describe the vegetational pattern on the landscape and elucidate controlling variables, to measure the soil properties and ...
