Mapping the cheatgrass-caused departure from historical natural fire regimes in the Great Basin, USA
Cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum) is an exotic grass that has increased fire hazard on millions of square kilometers of semi-arid rangelands in the western United States. Cheatgrass aggressively out competes native vegetation after fire and significantly…
