Riginos C, Kimuyu D, Veblen K, Porensky L, Odadi W, Sensenig R, et al.
Ecol Lett . 2024 Dec; 27(12):e14466. PMID: 39739248
The Kenya long-term exclosure experiment (KLEE) was established in 1995 in semi-arid savanna rangeland to examine the separate and combined effects of livestock, wildlife and megaherbivores on their shared environment....

Masudi S, Odadi W, Kimuyu D, Gachuiri C, Sensenig R, Young T
Ecol Appl . 2024 May; 34(5):e2975. PMID: 38747033
Fire and herbivory have profound effects on vegetation in savanna ecosystems, but little is known about how different herbivore groups influence vegetation dynamics after fire. We assessed the separate and...

Werner C, Kimuyu D, Veblen K, Sensenig R, LaMalfa E, Young T
Ecology . 2020 Dec; 102(4):e03270. PMID: 33340104
Grassland and savanna ecosystems, important for both livelihoods and biodiversity conservation, are strongly affected by ecosystem drivers such as herbivory, fire, and drought. Interactions among fire, herbivores and vegetation produce...

Sensenig R, Kimuyu D, Ruiz Guajardo J, Veblen K, Riginos C, Young T
Ecology . 2017 Mar; 98(5):1455-1464. PMID: 28273343
Although disturbance theory has been recognized as a useful framework in examining the stability of ant-plant mutualisms, very few studies have examined the effects of fire disturbance on these mutualisms....

Pringle R, Kimuyu D, Sensenig R, Palmer T, Riginos C, Veblen K, et al.
J Anim Ecol . 2015 Jun; 84(6):1637-45. PMID: 26033175
Disturbance is a crucial determinant of animal abundance, distribution and community structure in many ecosystems, but the ways in which multiple disturbance types interact remain poorly understood. The effects of...
6.
Kimuyu D, Sensenig R, Riginos C, Veblen K, Young T
Ecol Appl . 2014 Jul; 24(4):741-9. PMID: 24988772
Despite the importance of fire and herbivory in structuring savanna systems, few replicated experiments have examined the interactive effects of herbivory and fire on plant dynamics. In addition, the effects...

Sensenig R, Demment M, Laca E
Ecology . 2010 Nov; 91(10):2898-907. PMID: 21058550
The high herbivore diversity in savanna systems has been attributed to the inherent spatial and temporal heterogeneity related to the quantity and quality of food resources. Allometric scaling predicts that...

Gregory N, Sensenig R, Wilcove D
Conserv Biol . 2010 Jun; 24(6):1606-16. PMID: 20561002
In East Africa fire and grazing by wild and domestic ungulates maintain savannas, and pastoralists historically set fires and herded livestock through the use of temporary corrals called bomas. In...

Demment M, Young M, Sensenig R
J Nutr . 2003 Dec; 133(11 Suppl 2):3879S-3885S. PMID: 14672285
To alleviate poverty in developing countries, economies must grow. Without the necessary investments in human capital, national economic growth may not lead to poverty alleviation and socioeconomic development, nor be...
