Abstract
Investigates methods to establish vegetation on migrating sand dunes in Texas to prevent damage to rangelands. Applying mulch and excluding dunes from livestock grazing were sufficient to establish vegetation. Seeding, transplanting, and fertilizing did not result in increased cover.Suggested Citation
