This study will document demography of desert shrubs along an environmental gradient created by the receding Mono Lake, taking advantage of the transgressing lake to understand physical factors affecting recruitment of juveniles. Shrub demography, seedling survivorship and patterns of thinning at 5 representative sites along the gradient will be continued as part of the long-term study necessary to understand the demography of slow-growing, long-lived desert shrubs. Results will be applied to restoration of Owens Lake bed (and others) that will ameliorate impact of water diversions, primarily air pollution from PM10, and impact of grazing or groundwater pumping on arid rangelands
