Plant-Soil interactions in temperate grasslands

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a conceptual model in which plant-soil interactions in grasslands are characterized by the extent to which water is limiting, and the degree of accumulation in these resource islands is strongly influenced by plant functional type (lifespan, growth form, root:shoot ratio, photosynthetic pathway), with the largest resource islands accumulating under perennial bunchgrasses.

TL;DR: In this article , the relative importance of differences in fire-caused tree mortality, which limits seeds available for tree regeneration, to the impacts of warm, dry climate conditions in determining postfire conifer regeneration was compared.

Tamm review: The effects of prescribed fire on wildfire regimes and impacts: A framework for comparison
TL;DR: In this article, the authors synthesize available scientific literature on relationships between prescribed fire and wildfire regimes, and their associated ecological and societal effects, focusing specifically on simulation modeling studies that consider wildfire probability and empirical and modeling studies considering prescribed fire at spatial and temporal scales beyond individual events.

Soil Organic Matter Recovery on Conservation Reserve Program Fields in Southeastern Wyoming
Marcos D. Robles,Ingrid C. Burke +1 more
TL;DR: Soil C and N have increased only slightly after 6 yr of CRP management, and future changes in land use management on these CRP fields, including grazing and cropping, may accrue some small benefits associated with improved soil fertility status.

Legume, grass, and conservation reserve program effects on soil organic matter recovery
Marcos D. Robles,Ingrid C. Burke +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the short-term dynamics of soil organic matter and nutrient supply on a farm in southeastern Wyoming that had been involved in the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP), a federal program that pays landowners to convert cultivated land into revegetated grasslands.
