From:International Journal of Agronomy (Vol. 2018) Peer-ReviewedStudies on the physical and chemical effects of extensive grazing on soils have been performed in Colombia, but the effects of dairy cattle rearing on the biological properties of soils are not well known. The objective...

From:Crop Science (Vol. 44, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedMore than a century since Charles Darwin slated that diverse grasslands produce more herbage than monocultures, scientists still debate the relationship between species diversity and ecosystem function. Postulated...

From:Australian Journal of Soil Research (Vol. 45, Issue 3) Peer-ReviewedOver large areas of south-eastern Australia, the original cover of native woodland has been extensively cleared or modified, and what remains is often characterised by scattered trees beneath which the ground-storey...
-
From:Australian Journal of Soil Research (Vol. 46, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedAbstract. Grazing by livestock has a great influence on soil characteristics with major effects on soil carbon and nitrogen cycling in grazing lands. Grazing practices affect soil properties in different ways depending...

From:The American Midland Naturalist (Vol. 178, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedGrazers may increase grassland plant species diversity through mechanisms such as selective consumption of graminoids resulting in release from competition in subordinate forb species, or the enhancement of small-scale...
-
From:The American Midland Naturalist (Vol. 163, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedWhile most studies of heterogeneity have focused on describing patterns of species or communities, few have focused on the relationships between biotic and abiotic environmental landscape-level gradients. Our study was...
