Influences of thinning, prescribed burning, and wildfire on soil processes and properties in southwestern ponderosa pine forests: a retrospective study

KC Grady, SC Hart - Forest Ecology and Management, 2006 - Elsevier
Following Euro-American settlement in the late 1800s, fire suppression and livestock
grazing in ponderosa pine-bunchgrass ecosystems of the southwestern US resulted in the …

Climate change perils for dioecious plant species

KR Hultine, KC Grady, TE Wood, SM Shuster, JC Stella… - Nature plants, 2016 - nature.com
Climate change, particularly increased aridity, poses a significant threat to plants and the
biotic communities they support. Dioecious species may be especially vulnerable to climate …

The invasive shrub European buckthorn (Rhamnus cathartica, L.) alters soil properties in Midwestern US woodlands

L Heneghan, F Fatemi, L Umek, K Grady, K Fagen… - Applied Soil …, 2006 - Elsevier
European buckthorn (Rhamnus cathartica), a prevalent invasive shrub in relict woodlands

Spectroscopic needs for imaging dark energy experiments

…, BL Frye, EJ Gawiser, N Gehrels, K Grady… - Astroparticle …, 2015 - Elsevier
Ongoing and near-future imaging-based dark energy experiments are critically dependent
upon photometric redshifts (aka photo-z’s): ie, estimates of the redshifts of objects based only …

Genetic variation in productivity of foundation riparian species at the edge of their distribution: implications for restoration and assisted migration in a warming climate

KC Grady, SM Ferrier, TE Kolb, SC Hart… - Global change …, 2011 - Wiley Online Library
We examined the hypothesis that genotypic variation among populations of commonly co‐occurring
phreatophytic trees ( P opulus fremontii, S alix gooddingii) and the shrub ( S alix …

Conservative leaf economic traits correlate with fast growth of genotypes of a foundation riparian species near the thermal maximum extent of its geographic range

KC Grady, DC Laughlin, SM Ferrier, TE Kolb… - Functional …, 2013 - Wiley Online Library
Plant functional traits involved in carbon and water acquisition are likely to be adaptive across
the range of a species if the availability of these resources varies across this range and …

Genotypic variation in phenological plasticity: Reciprocal common gardens reveal adaptive responses to warmer springs but not to fall frost

HF Cooper, KC Grady, JA Cowan, RJ Best… - Global change …, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
Species faced with rapidly shifting environments must be able to move, adapt, or acclimate
in order to survive. One mechanism to meet this challenge is phenotypic plasticity: altering …
