Abstract
On the Ground
- Quaking aspen is widely regarded as a key resource for humans, livestock, and wildlife with these values often competing with each other, leading to overuse of aspen in some locations and declines.
- We review trends in aspen science and management, particularly in Utah. Historically, research conducted here holds a prestigious place in international aspen circles.
- We highlight recent studies continuing the tradition to keep rangeland managers informed of important developments, focusing on aspen functional types, historical cover change and climate warming, ungulate herbivory, and disturbance interactions.
