Post-harvest establishment influences ANPP, soil C and DOC export in complex mountainous terrain

Creator:

Peterson, Fox S.

Abstract:

The link between aboveground net primary productivity (ANPP) and resource gradients generated by complex terrain (solar radiation, nutrients, and moisture) has been established in the literature. Belowground ecosystem stocks and functions, such as soil organic carbon (SOC), dissolved organic carbon (DOC), and belowground productivity have also been related to the...

Non-native and native plant species distributions and variability along an elevation gradient in the Wallowa Mountains, Oregon

Creator:

Averett, Joshua P.

Abstract:

Invasion by non-native plants into natural areas is an important component of global change that threatens biodiversity and ecosystem structure and function. Mountains are currently among the least invaded ecosystems, however, these biodiversity hotspots are increasingly under threat of exotic plant invasion. Evaluation of plant species distribution patterns in mountain...
