Piñon and juniper tree removal increases available soil water, driving understory response in a sage‐steppe ecosystem
Abstract Over the past century, piñon and juniper trees have encroached into sagebrush steppe lands of the interior United States, and managers have for many years removed trees to stimulate the favored understory. While consistent understory response to tree removal in these semiarid lands suggests...
