Asynchronous Response of Plant Productivity and Soil Aggregate Nutrients to Grazing Exclusion Duration in Alpine Steppe

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 16, Page 11671-11681, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Grazing exclusion is a critical restoration measure for degraded alpine steppe ecosystems. However, research remains limited on the key factors influencing soil aggregates that affect plant productivity and the mechanisms influencing nutrient distribution across aggregates of different size fractions during long‐term grazing exclusion.

Plant Trait‐ and Soil‐Mediated Responses of Herbaceous Aboveground Biomass Across Community Types Along a Degradation Gradient in the Desert Steppe

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 16, Page 11900-11911, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Grassland degradation profoundly alters the structure and function of desert steppe ecosystems. However, the responses of herbaceous aboveground biomass (Herb‐AGB) to degradation across different plant community types and the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood.

Estimation Accuracy Obviously Increased of Soil Organic Carbon Content Based on Habitat Patches Scale Using Interpretable Machine Learning in Southwest China

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 16, Page 11926-11940, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Although machine learning models have been successfully applied to estimate soil organic carbon (SOC), the lack of interpretability research has resulted in the absence of mechanistic explanations for these models. Therefore, in this study, we adopted the following workflow: first, we divided the whole study area into several subregions using ...

Elevation‐dependent soil and plant responses to a decade of warming and species removal

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 10, October 2026.
Understanding how ecosystems retain or release carbon under warming is a critical challenge. Dominant plant species, which contribute the most biomass, can mediate ecosystem responses to warming by modifying microclimate and nutrient cycling. To investigate how warming and shifts in plant dominance interact to affect carbon and nutrient dynamics, we ...
