Western Land Managers will Need all Available Tools for Adapting to Climate Change, Including Grazing: A Critique of Beschta et al.

Creator:: Svejcar, Tony, Boyd, Chad, Davies, Kirk, Madsen, Matthew, Bates, Jonathan D., Sheley, Roger, Marlow, Clayton, Bohnert, David W., Borman, Mike, Mata-Gonzalez, Ricardo, Buckhouse, John, Stringham, Tamzen, Perryman, Barry, Swanson, Sherman, Tate, Kenneth, George, Mel, Ruyle, George, Roundy, Bruce, Call, Chris, Jensen, Kevin, Launchbaugh, Karen, Gearhart, Amanda, Vermeire, Lance, Tanaka, John, Derner, Justin, Frasier, Gary, and Havstad, Kris
Abstract:: In a previous article, Beschta et al. (Environ Manag 51(2):474–491, 2013) argue that grazing by large ungulates (both native and domestic) should be eliminated or greatly reduced on western public lands to reduce potential climate change impacts. The authors did not present a balanced synthesis of the scientific literature, and...

Influence of cow age/experience and landscape thermal regimes on distribution and grazing patterns of cattle in northeastern Oregon mixed conifer forested rangelands

Creator:: Wells, Micah
Abstract:: Two studies were conducted to determine the factors influencing distribution of cattle on northeastern Oregon mixed-conifer forested rangelands. The objective of the first study was the quantification of differences in distribution of cattle of different ages. Beginning in 1991, and continuing through 2001, radio telemetry collars were placed on a...

A Systematic Review of Diversity and Inclusion Scholarly Sources in Natural Resources (1919 – 2018)

Creator:: Brown, Jasmine K. and Rempel, Hannah G.
Abstract:: This dataset was created for the purpose of collecting and cataloguing sources that mentioned aspects of cultural diversity or workforce diversity within natural resource professions. The exploratory questions that prompted the collection of sources in this dataset were: - Is diversity discussed in scholarly sources within natural resources? - If...

Modeling animal movement to manage landscapes

Creator:: Larson-Praplan, Stephanie
Abstract:: Managing rangelands with livestock grazing is a tool that can be applied to obtain vegetation management objectives. Animals utilize available resources, which vary in quantity and quality, across the landscape. Their movements are adjusted to the spatial and temporal heterogeneity of resource distribution. Controlling livestock distribution is fundamental to economically...

The influence of cow age on grazing distribution and utilization of mountain riparian areas and adjacent uplands

Creator:: Morrison, Julie A.
Abstract:: The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of cow age on grazing distribution relative to mountain riparian areas. In each of two years, sixty cow-calf pairs were stratified by age into the following treatments: 1) thirty first calf heifers (442 kg, body condition score (BCS)=4.5), and 2)...

Influence of cattle grazing and forage seeding on establishment of conifers in southwest Oregon

Creator:: Alejandro-Castro, Mabel
Abstract:: The ability of controlled livestock grazing, in combination with seeding of palatable forages, to reduce understory competition and enhance conifer establishment, was evaluated during 1985 and 1986, on two adjacent sites in southwestern Oregon. In 1984, Site 1 was clearcut and broadcast burned to remove slash, and Site 2 was...

Wildland fire in ecosystems : effects of fire on fauna

Creator:: Lyon, L. Jack, Huff, Mark H., Hooper, Robert G., Telfer, Edmund S., Schreiner, David Scott, and Smith, Jane Kapler
Abstract:: Fires affect animals mainly through effects on their habitat. Fires often cause short-term increases in wildlife foods that contribute to increases in populations of some animals. These increases are moderated by the animals’ ability to thrive in the altered, often simplified, structure of the postfire environment. The extent of fire...

The influence of grazing systems on the performance and diet of yearling cattle

Creator:: Berry, Timothy James
Abstract:: Research was conducted at the Starkey Experimental Forest and Range in northeastern Oregon to determine cattle performance, diet quality, botanical composition of forage ingested, and production and utilization among rest-rotation, season-long, and deferred rotation grazing systems. The grazing season lasted from June 20 to October 10 of each year. Cows...

Creating Useful and Useable Climate Tools for Sagebrush Land Management Through Scientist and Manager Collaboration

Creator:: Brown, Melanie
Abstract:: The sagebrush ecosystem, home to numerous plant and animal species including big sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata) and the endemic greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus), has endured fragmentation and degradation of both quantity and quality due to the cumulative and synergistic relationships between an abundance of individual disturbances including grazing, invasive annuals and...
