Influence of shrub encroachment on aboveground net primary productivity and carbon and nitrogen pools in a mesic grassland (2004, background): “This is a minor variation of permanent plot or tree-based methods to estimate wood production (Norris et al. 2001b), and although shrub mortality was not quantified, it was rare in these young, expanding islands.”
State-and-Transition Models, Thresholds, and Rangeland Health: A Synthesis of Ecological Concepts and Perspectives (2005, background): “…primary production and soil carbon and nitrogen pools have been demonstrated to increase substantially in mesic environments (Archer et al. 2001; Norris et al. 2001; Hibbard et al. 2003), and net aboveground production remained similar in semiarid environments (Huenneke et al. 2002), following…”
