Resilience of ecosystem structure and function during succession following prescribed burning in a shrub-steppe ecosystem in Wyoming,USA

摘要：

Introduction Prescribed burning is applied in mountain big sagebrush ( A rtemisia tritentata var.v aseyana) communities across the Intermountain West,USA,to reduce shrub cover,increase herbaceous biomass,and enhance wildlife habitat and rangeland health.When properly managed,succession following burning in these upper elevation rangelands follows a predictable pathway.
