Title
Characterization of the overlap area between encinal and pinyon-juniper woodlands.
Roy Roberto Arnoco. Pollisco UA Campus Repository (The University of Arizona) 1995
Other claims from this paper (9)
- Association Slope and aspect were not critical to overlap area occurrence.
- Observation Overlap areas had stonier soil surfaces than the other woodland types.
- Observation Oak volume exceeded pinyon-juniper volume at some overlap sites.
- Observation Oak trees appeared more mature and established than pinyon-juniper trees in overlap areas.
- Association Smaller pinyon-juniper trees might indicate recent occupation of overlap areas.
- Observation Oak regeneration was generally more abundant than pinyon-juniper regeneration.
- Recommendation The authors advised selecting stony to very stony overlap areas for re-establishment after harvesting.
- Recommendation The authors advised caution when harvesting warm, steep slopes because pinyon-juniper could become dominant.
- Association The authors suggested oak might eventually dominate pinyon-juniper in overlap areas.
