- Library Collection RecordKnowledge of how climate and management influence livestock and perennial grass production is needed to address potential consequences of both increasing climate variability and the need to double…Publication Date 2014
- Library Collection RecordKnowledge on the potential fire behavior of an ecosystem provides the foundation for understanding how many plants respond to fire and for developing fire suppression strategies; however, fire…Publication Date 2014
- Library Collection RecordLand managers concerned with declining aspen cover at the Lutz Farm near Bozeman, Montana studied aspen stand response to mechanical treatment as an alternative to prescribed fire. All aspen stands…Publication Date 2015
- Library Collection RecordLand managers' decisions to restore degraded or at-risk rangelands require a certain amount of faith: that we know enough about the site to be able to make the right choices, that seed will be…Publication Date 2015
- Library Collection RecordLand use and land cover change in Mexico's drylands has been highly dynamic in space and time concomitantly coupling and decoupling ecology, culture, economics, and politics between people and…Publication Date 2015
- Library Collection RecordLand use decision making today is made within a complex system with numerous interrelationships of ecological, economic, and social considerations. Farmers and ranchers alike face constant changes in…Publication Date 2014
- Library Collection RecordLANDFIRE has been producing and updating land cover data products across all 50 United States for a decade. Although many have thought of it as only a wildland fire data set, the rich array of data…Publication Date 2015
