How to Use this Website

This website was designed using a very similar protocol to that assembled for yellow starthistle (http://wric.ucdavis.edu/yst/index.html). We "borrowed" this style for ease of presentation and appreciate the ideas provided by Dr. Joe DiTomaso and web designer Kitty Schlosser.

From the homepage it is possible to access specific topics on saltcedar including Introduction and Spread, Impacts, Biology and Ecology, Management, Restoration in the Southwest, Requests for Proposals and Contracts, Legislation, and Literature. Within most of these categories will be subcategories to more specific topics. For example, under the Biology and Ecology homepage is included sections on Identification and Taxonomy, Reproduction, Germination and Dormancy, and Growth and Establishment. Each of these subcategories will contain more specific information on that topic.

Throughout the text, words or phases are color-coded. Clicking the colored text provides additional information.

• Words or phrases highlighted in blue will denote a photograph associated with that topic;
  

• Words or phrases in red can be clicked to show data, maps or illustrations supporting the statement;
  

• Words or sentences in green will provide further text on that topic.

A complete list of saltcedar-related literature including references can be accessed from the Literature button on each page. Links in the text allow the user to move to the main menu or to the appropriate sub-menu from any window. Each section is available to download and print. There are also a number of links to other appropriate webpages.
