Litter decay processes and soil nitrogen availability in native and cheatgrass-dominated arid rangelands

Creator:: Harrison, Kristen S.
Abstract:: As large-scale restorations of degraded rangelands are initiated, land managers need to understand how decades of dominance by the invasive annual grass, cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum L.), have altered ecosystem processes. One way to assess such alterations is by observing differences in decay rates, since decomposition is determined by factors such...

Impact of Armillaria and annosus root diseases on stand and canopy structure, species diversity, and down woody material in a central Oregon mixed-conifer forest

Creator:: Fields, Kristen L. N.
Abstract:: White and grand fir are both valuable components of the mixed-conifer stand structure managed for late-successional reserves in central Oregon. However, they are often short-lived species because of high susceptibility to root diseases, defoliating insects, bark beetles, and wildfire. This study focuses on the effects of root diseases caused by...
