Abstract

The south central ecoregion was a mosiac ecoregion of forest and grassland continnum which is transiting towards closed canopy forests and losing ecosystem benefits. We studied role of active management, its economic benefit, and landonwers atttitdue and behavior towards restoring ecosystem services in this region. We further studed how the economic benefit varies in this region with the change in rainfall.
