Title: Nonequilibrium dynamics of sedge meadows grazed by cattle in southern Wisconsin: Journal: Plant Ecology; Authors: B. Middleton; Date: 2002; Summary: The effects of cattle grazing and exclusion on the long-term structural characteristics of sedge meadows in the Lodi Wildlife Area, WI (43Ëš 19â€™ N; 89Ëš 37â€™ W) were examined to test the equilibrium theory from 1977-1997. Four sites (reference-very lightly grazed, lightly grazed, moderately to heavily grazed and recovering-no grazing since 1973) were examined. Four environmental factors including recovery time (years since grazing), tussock height, frequency of hoof prints, and water depth at base of tussock (if present) were calculated and measured. ...; Agrovoc Control Words: Riparian zones, Grazing, Wildlife; View more details about this article
