Short-Term Butterfly Response to Sagebrush Steppe Restoration Treatments [PDF]
As part of the Sagebrush Steppe Treatment Evaluation Project (SageSTEP), butterflies were surveyed pre-treatment and up to four years post-treatment at 16 widely distributed sagebrush steppe sites in the interior West.

We evaluated the impacts of grazing, climatic variability, and vegetation productivity on the population dynamics of a northern Great Plains greater sage‐grouse population. We found winter temperature influenced annual population growth rates, but did not detect influences of drought, breeding season weather, vegetation productivity or short‐term ...

Indirect Measurement of Leaf Area Index in Sagebrush-Steppe Rangelands
Leaf area index (LAI) is defined as the one-sided area of leaves above a unit area of ground. It is a fundamental ecosystem parameter that is a required input of process-based plant growth and biogeochemical models.

HABITAT PREFERENCE OF CHILOPODA AND DIPLOPODA OF THE FAUNA OF THE CENTRAL CISCAUCASIA
Central Ciscaucasia is experiencing significant anthropogenic loads from the XIX century. About 90% of the territory of the Stavropol Territory is used for agricultural needs, which has a significant impact on the inhabitants of the soil.
