Effect of burn season and grazing deferment on mountain big sagebrush plant communities

<p>Relative species and cover group data from a four-year long replicated experiment comparing the effects of season of fire (spring or fall) and sheep grazing deferment on sagebrush-steppe rangelands in east Idaho, USA. Study conducted by USDA-Agriculture Research Service Range Sheep Production Efficiency Research unit staff at the US Sheep Experiment Station near Dubois, ID. Deferment treatments included either no grazing for one or two growing seasons after fire, or no deferment, in which domestic sheep returned in the season after fire. Data also include species lookup table, precipitation data, and data library.</p> <p>Resources in this dataset:</p> <ul> <li> <p>Resource Title: Species Lookup Table File Name: SpeciesListPrint2.csv Resource Description: Species code and cover group code table</p> </li> <li> <p>Resource Title: Data dictionary File Name: DataDictionary_SFF_2023.xlsx Resource Description: Data dictionary for data tables</p> </li> <li> <p>Resource Title: US Sheep Experiment Station Long Term Precipitation Record (inches) File Name: PrecipUSSESInches.csv Resource Description: US Sheep Experiment Station Long Term Precipitation Record (inches).
