- Title: Livestock exclusion increases the spatial heterogeneity of vegetation in Colorado shortgrass steppe
- Journal: Applied Vegetation Science
- Authors: P. B. Adler, and W. K. Lauenroth
- Date: 2000
- Summary: The effects of long-term protection from moderate cattle grazing on the abundance and spatial heterogeneity of the dominant plant species within a shortgrass steppe was investigated on the Central Plains Experimental Range (40° 49' N; 107° 47' W) in northeast Colorado. Canopy cover, density, litter, bareground, soil texture, and small mammal activity were recorded on eight paired plots of moderately grazed pastures and long-term (60 year) and short-term (8 years) ungrazed exclosures were recorded. ...
