<span style="font-size:9.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";color:#222222" class="ContentPasted0">For nearly a century, invasive annual grasses have increasingly impacted terrestrial ecosystems across the western United
States. Weather variability associated with climate change and increased atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) are making even more difficult the challenges of managing invasive annual grasses.

is being addressed by scientists at the USDA Agricultural Research Service to emphasize the need for additional research and future studies that build on current knowledge and account for (extreme) changes in abiotic and biotic conditions.

result in the establishment of perennial systems. In the future, research will need to address invasive annual grasses in an adaptive integrated weed management (AIWM) framework that utilizes models and accounts for climate change that is resulting in altered/new
approaches to management and restoration.<o:p class="ContentPasted0"> </o:p></span></p>
