Research PartnershipsTahoe Science Projects supported by SNPLMAModeling Cheatgrass Invasion RiskResearchers are developing and applying a spatially explicit model of cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum L.) invasion risk in montane meadows of the Tahoe basin by examining regional and local moisture gradients and other factors that affect plant invasion in meadows. The research will predict future impacts and suggest management solutions to cheatgrass invasion under projected climate scenarios. Full Title: Predictive modeling of cheatgrass invasion risk for the Lake Tahoe basin Proposal [pdf] Lead Researchers: Brian Anacker, and Susan Harrison, UC Davis; Hugh Safford, USFS Region 5 Goal Sites: A minimum of 40 plots in the Sierra Nevada that represent the range of environmental conditions found in the basin. Timeframe: August 2008 through May 2010 (1.5 years) Products
