Mau-Crimmins T, Mauzy M, Studd S, McPherson GR. 2004. Continuation of a Non-native Plant Mapping Project at Montezuma Castle and Tuzigoot National Monuments. National Park Service, Sonoran Desert Network, Inventory and Monitoring. Tucson, AZ
The goals of this project were: 1) to map the spatial location, distribution and abundance of 50 nonnative plants in Montezuma Castle and Tuzigoot National Monuments for a second field season; 2) to map the spatial location, distribution, and abundance of 50 nonnative plants in the expansion lands adjacent to Tuzigoot National Monument; 3) to further test the efficacy of roaming surveys for nonnative plant mapping using a modified version of the "Beyond NAWMA" (Stohlgren et al. no date) weed mapping standards suggested by the North American Weed Management Association (NAWMA) in these National Parks; and 4) to implement an analytical prioritization technique such as Hiebert and Stubbendieck (1993) for management planning.
