Abstract

(Please note, this is an abstract only) The Mesa project is a landscape scale restoration treatment for a pinyon/ juniper woodland. Primarily, the goal of the project is to reduce encroaching woodland on savanna grasslands, thus improving rangeland and wildlife habitat. This project is financed by several non-profit wildlife organizations.
