Nonnative Shrub Ranking <br />To assist in prioritizing areas for control of nonnative shrubs, a methodology created by Paui <br />Bockenstedt for assessing European buckthorn Rhaninais cathartica infestation levels in M1V <br />State Parks was utilized. This method seeks to assess, within an individual natural comrriunity, <br />the extent of nonnative shn�b cover, shurb size, seed production, and other rclated parameters to <br />detcrmine the threat they pose to existing natural cornmunities. The nonnative shrub assessment <br />method yields a numerical sco.re where the higher the score is, the greater the infestation Ievels <br />of nonnative shrubs. These numeric scores can then be used within, or across parks to priot�tize <br />treatment sites. <br />City of Roseti�ille 5� <br />Pa�lcs Nan�ral Resource Mnnagement <br />
