The impact of cattle grazing on salt marsh and elevated hummock vegetation communities of a Texas barrier island /

To assess the effects of cattle herbivory on vegetation community structure and composition in a Texas coastal salt marsh, data measuring several vegetation parameters were collected in four distinct habitats within a heavily grazed marsh over an eighteen month period. Grazing reduced total biomass...
