Resource Description:
This case study evaluates the effectiveness of an experimental site preparation practice implemented in South Lake Tahoe, CA: the mastication and spreading of unmerchantable biomass on over 1,000 hectacres of postfire forested land. The practice proved to be effective at preventing erosion, reducing drought stress, and controlling understory shrub regrowth.
