Effects of Frequent Mowing on Survival and Persistence of Forbs Seeded into a Species‐Poor Grassland (2007, background): “…(Rogers & Hartnett 2001), northern Great Plains mixed grass prairie (Wilson & Pärtel 2003), Kangaroograss (Themeda australis) grassland in Southeast Australia (Hitchmough et al. 1996; Morgan 1997), California coastal grasslands (Maron & Jeffries 2001) and old fields (Goldberg & Werner 1983).”
Herbivore and pollinator responses to grassland management intensity along experimental changes in plant species richness (2012, background): “Mowing can also change plant species assemblages, with often positive effects on plant diversity (Maron and Jefferies, 2001;Williams et al., 2007).”
Gone but Not Forgotten? Invasive Plants' Legacies on Community and Ecosystem Properties (2012, background): “Maron and Jefferies (2001) found soil N levels were higher in soils that had formerly been invaded by the N-fixer bush lupine (Lupinus arboreus Sims) as much as 35 yr earlier, as compared with uninvaded soils, and levels remained high for at least 5 yr after bush lupine removal.”
Does the Type of Disturbance Matter When Restoring Disturbance‐Dependent Grasslands? (2007, background): “In this savanna, many native species are dispersal limited, as has been reported in other grassland systems (e.g., Maron & Jefferies 2001; Foster & Tilman 2003; Maret & Wilson 2005).”
Soil recovery after removal of the N2-fixing invasive Acacia longifolia: consequences for ecosystem restoration (2009, background): “The reduction in soil N may prevent fast growing exotic species and ultimately favour re-establishment of native species (Hulme 2006; Kulmatiski et al. 2006; Maron and Jefferies 2001; Perry et al. 2004).”
Stability of exotic annual grasses following restoration efforts in southern California coastal sage scrub (2008, background): “The effects of mowing are variable and can increase ( Maron & Jefferies 2001 ) or decrease (Kimball & Schiffman 2003) plant diversity, with the outcome presumably influenced by the identity of the targeted species, the timing and intensity of the mowing treatment and also by various abiotic factors ”
Litter legacy increases the competitive advantage of invasive Phragmites australis in New England wetlands (2011, background): “In our study, simply removing litter from Phragmites stands with a brush trimmer prompted the vigorous revegetation of native plants, a response consistent with mowing studies performed in a number of other heavily invaded grassland ecosystems ( Maron and Jefferies 2001; MacDougall and Turkington 2”
Impacts of the exotic, nitrogen-fixing black locust (Robinia pseudoacacia) on nitrogen-cycling in a pine–oak ecosystem (2004, background): “Nitrogen availability can be reduced in soils by facilitating nitrogen loss through leaching, by reducing nitrogen pools by harvesting or burning, by diluting available nitrogen by tilling, or by temporarily immobilizing nitrogen in microbial biomass by mulching Marrs 1985; Marrs 1993; Marrs et al. ”
