Pitting fails to sustain increases in ecosystem structure in arid rangelands

David J. Eldridge; Jingyi Ding Restoration Ecology 2023. doi:10.1111/rec.13929

Other claims from this paper (9)

Intervention effect Pitting increased perennial forb and annual cover relative to untreated sites.
Intervention effect Pitting suppressed bare ground relative to untreated sites.
Association Site conditions modified pitting effects.
Association Greater prior plant cover and rainfall increased the pitting effect on litter cover.
Association Time since treatment increased the relative pitting effect on annual plant cover.
Association Greater rainfall weakened the negative pitting effect on bare soil cover.
Intervention effect Soil moisture was generally greater beneath pits than in control or inter-pit soil.
Recommendation The authors conclude that a single pitting treatment may fail to achieve long-term rehabilitation.
Observation The authors expect poor pitting success under current lower rainfall and higher temperature.
