Simulating the Effects of Brush Management on Runoff and Erosion on the ARS Walnut Gulch Experimental Watershed. CEAP Science Note.

摘要

The Conservation Effects Assessment Project (CEAP)-Grazing Lands national assessment is designed to quantify the environmental effects of conservation practices on U.S. non-Federal grazing lands. The assessment includes science-based estimates of expected environmental effects of installed conservation practices using environmental models. As part of this effort, scientists with the Agricultural Research Service Southwest Watershed Research Center in Tucson, AZ, simulated results of brush removal and grass seeding on brush-infested rangeland in southeastern Arizona.
