The Ancient Agroecology of Perry Mesa: Integrating Runoff, Nutrients, and Climate (2013)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Melissa Kruse-Peeples.

Understanding agricultural land use requires the integration of natural factors, such as climate and nutrients, as well as human factors, such as agricultural intensification. Employing an agroecological framework, I use the Perry Mesa landscape, located in central Arizona, as a case study to explore the intersection of these factors to investigate prehistoric agriculture from A.D. 1275-1450.
