Livestock grazing and geodiversity modulate wild herbivore distributions in an African community conservation area

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
The rapid decline of African wildlife populations demands immediate action to mitigate further losses and restore ecosystems. A key factor influencing wildlife distribution is the relationship between the energetic needs of species and the availability of forage, both in terms of quality and quantity.

Integrating large mammalian herbivores into Dynamic Global Vegetation Models: Status and next steps

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Zoogeochemistry, the study of how animals influence elemental cycling within ecosystems, bridges the fields of zoology, ecology and biogeochemistry. Yet, most terrestrial ecosystem models, especially Dynamic Global Vegetation Models (DGVMs), remain largely plant‐centric

The impacts of large wild grazers on soil carbon persistence are strongly modulated by the environmental context

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Wild animals, particularly large mammalian grazers, can influence ecosystem carbon dynamics and soil carbon sequestration. However, we lack a mechanistic understanding of how wild grazer communities influence soil carbon persistence, specifically in terms of the size of
