surroundings, which in turn are likely to affect their immune systems and exposure to …

Herbivores are a main driver of ecosystem patterns and processes in semi-arid savannas,
with their effects clearly observed when they are excluded from landscapes. Starting in the …

Woody plant encroachment threatens grassland biomes at a global scale. Pyric herbivory
combines prescribed burnings and targeted grazing to restore open habitats and has proved …

The influence of fire regimes on soil microbial diversity in montane grasslands is a relatively
unexplored area of interest. Understanding the belowground diversity is a crucial stepping …

Shifts in animal husbandry and landscape use have significantly changed ungulate grazing
effects on ecosystem functioning. These changes are now the subject of extensive research …

Knowledge about how pastoralism and kraaling may contribute to desired global objectives,
such as soil fertility, is in danger of being lost. We tested whether short duration kraaling …

Prescribed fire frequencies have been widely used to reduce the risk of severe wildfire
occurrences. In addition, several studies have been conducted to assess the impact of fire …

Objectives An indirect method for estimating plant biomass using a drop-plate meter was
explored for use in broad array of crop systems. Methods Drop-plate data collected by more …

Premise In frequently burned southeastern USA pine‐grassland communities, wiregrass
(Aristida stricta and A. beyrichiana) are dominant bunchgrasses whose flowers are infected …

Promover o estoque de carbono torna-se uma ferramenta importante para a mitigação de
