In an article in the Journal of Environmental Management titled “Restoration of foothills rough fescue grassland following pipeline disturbance in southwestern Alberta” by Peggy Desserud, C. Cormack Gates, Barry Adams, and Richard D. Revel stresses the complications of many restoration practices aimed toward restoring fescue grassland in southern Alberta. The authors used extensive scientific data including species lists and specific experiments to test their theories about effectiveness of certain restoration practices. The authors’ apparent purpose in this article is to shed some light on how futile many of these practices are. The authors’ intended audience for this article are biological and ecological professionals due to the presentation of the scientific data.
