Title: Grazing impacts on litter and roots: Perennial versus annual grasses: Journal: Journal of Range Management; Authors: E. Mapfumo, M. A. Naeth, V. S. Baron, A. C. Dick, and D. S. Chanasyk; Date: 2002; Summary: Mapfumo et al. evaluated grazing intensity (light, moderate, and heavy) effects on litter and root mass, C and N pools of perennial grasses, smooth bromegrass (Bromus inermis) and meadow bromegrass (Bromus riparius), and the annual grass, winter triticale (X Triticosecale). Litter mass and C pool for the perennial grasses were greater than those for triticale. Root mass was greater for the perennial grasses than for triticale at all grazing intensities. Increasing grazing intensities decreased litter mass and C and N concentrati ...; Agrovoc Control Words: Riparian zones, Rangelands, Wildlife; View more details about this article

Title: Mule deer-induced mortality of mountain big sagebrush: Journal: Journal of Range Management; Authors: E. D. McArthur, A. C. Blauer, and S. C. Sanderson; Date: 1988; Summary: In the summer of 1984, research was conducted in Utah on mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus)-induced mortality of a mountain big sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata ssp. vaseyana) community that was bisected by a deer fence. The sagebrush community was located on an exposed, west-facing slope that was generally snow-free during the winters of 1982-1983 and 1983-1984. On the freeway side of the fence, the site was essentially free of browsing animals, while above the fence, the shrubs were exposed to concentrations of mule deer.
