Effect of a Wildfire on Idaho Fescue and Bluebunch Wheatgrass

The accidental burn of a research site in sagebrush-grass vegetation created an opportunity to investigate some factors which affect the susceptibility of Idaho fescue and bluebunch wheatgrass to damage by fire. The former was more susceptible than the latter. Factors associated with relief increased and those associated with grazing prior to the burn decreased the detrimental effects of fire.This material was digitized as part of a cooperative project between the Society for Range Management and the University of Arizona Libraries.The Journal of Range Management archives are made available by the Society for Range Management and the University of Arizona Libraries.
