Data collected September 7 & 8. 2007 utilizing ten 9.6 square foot quadrates to measure above ground biomass product,on, plant
species composition and ground cover type. Biomass production was measured usrng a double samptrng procedure of estimates
ad usted b actual values from re resentative sarn Ies Wei ht urnls are rams unless otherwise noted
Three of the ten quadrates were estimated then rlipped to derive an actual green weight correction factor used to adust estimated
green wer tits
The ratio between estimated and actual clipped reen wet tits
' Air d weight values were derived tram the actual wet ht of oven-dried cli ped samples for each species.
Spec-, es compositron values are based upon the percenta e of total above round biomass production for all species
Utihzuiq a NRCS & BLM standard conversion rate of grams to pounds per arse ;gram weights from ten 9 6 sq. ft. quadrates converts
