Seed Dispersal, Seed Entrapment, and Seedling Recruitment in a Temporally Variable Desert Playa
Natural establishment of seedlings in desert playas with temporally variable precipitation hinges on many factors, including seed production, seed dispersal, seed entrapment, seed germination, and seedling survival. We investigated natural seed dispersal patterns and the effects of surface texture, wind barriers, resource availability (water and nutrients), and protection from... |
