Abstract
Photo 1. RestoreNet site at the Canyonlands Research Center tests seeding with pits (small depressions), ConMods (artificial nurse plants), and mulch. Photo credit: Katherine Laushman, US Geological Survey. Photo 2. Connectivity modifiers (ConMods) at RestoreNet sites serve as artificial nurse plants that create a favorable microclimate for developing seedings.
