Abstract

The amount of deposited soil from pocket gopher (Geomys bursarius) mounds was quantified on a tallgrass prairie. Five percent of the total surface area was covered by mounds and the rate of mound formation was highest in early October at 64.57 mounds/ha/day. Mound-building activity and air temperature were not significantly related.
