Summary
This project supports long-term research in rangeland ecosystem to better understand the relationships between livestock, wildlife, and other stressors impacting ecosystem resilience. Researchers will study the impact of multiple factors on competition and coexistence of livestock with wildlife, and the stability and resilience in a savanna rangeland community in the face of drought, fire, and other environmental stressors. This research provides a unique and essential baseline for the conservation, management, and restoration of rangelands including those in the United States, which lost most
