Implementation of the SEEDS experimental restoration framework can move management options toward strategic treatments that increase project success, reduce the need for repeated treatments, and reduce costs. We will restore functional and resilient Great Basin ecosystems through, 1) experiments using local management and researcher knowledge, 2) monitoring a suite of integrated ecosystem processes, 3) determining…
