This data release includes data and metadata on soil total (organic and inorganic) carbon, total nitrogen, organic matter, moisture and foliar carbon and nitrogen of dominant plants within Keamuku Maneuver Area (KMA) on Hawaii Island. Broadly, this study looked at how microtopography and biotic interactions influence post-disturbance recovery and native planting success in native shrub-dominated and non-native, invasive grass-dominated dryland habitats.

This data release includes data and metadata on 155 vegetation plots that were random stratified across different substrate ages and geological features at Keamuku Maneuver Area (KMA) on Hawaii Island in order to capture vegetation patterns across the landscape in relation to geology and climate. This data set also includes coordinates for the plots and geological data. This data was also used to determine dominant vegetation types across KMA.

This data release includes data and metadata on post-disturbance native shrub recruitment and survival within recovering vegetation after disturbance for sites within Keamuku Maneuver Area on Hawaii Island. This study looked at how microtopography and biotic interactions influence post-disturbance recovery in native shrub-dominated and non-native, invasive grass-dominated dryland habitats.

This data release includes data and metadata on post-disturbance percent cover of recovering vegetation after disturbance for sites within Keamuku Maneuver Area on Hawaii Island. This study looked at how microtopography and biotic interactions influence post-disturbance recovery in native shrub-dominated and non-native, invasive grass-dominated dryland habitats.

Executive summary: The avifauna within the Sky Islands of southeastern Arizona includes species found nowhere else in the U.S. Thus, birdwatchers from across the globe visit the region, providing a vibrant state and local ecotourism industry. RMRS scientists initiated a study in the 1990s on avian distribution and habitat associations within the Sky Islands. Since then, the region has been under increased stress from ongoing droughts and wildfires, likely associated with climate change. By re-measuring vegetation and bird populations in 2014 following wildfires and applying climate change models, we will assess the singular and synergistic effects of climate change and wildfire and provide strategies for managing...
