Body
We show how the magnitude of vegetation response to major rainfalls can be determined from satellite data and be used to produce scaled paddock maps of landscape resilience. These maps assist in separating grazing effects from rainfall and landscape variability and should be a useful tool for paddock planning and future land management.
