Soil carbon sequestration potential in subtropical grasslands estimated by DayCent‐CABBI
Abstract Soil carbon (C) sequestration by restoring degraded grasslands with adequate management practices offers significant opportunities for climate change mitigation while remaining highly uncertain. In this study, a combination of a biogeochemical model DayCent‐CABBI and eddy covariance (EC) flux towers was applied to evaluate soil C sequestration

Stoichiometric ratios in the soil of native and forage areas in a seasonally dry tropical forest
The availability of potassium (K), calcium (Ca) and magnesium (Mg) in the soil affects the nutrition and productivity of the plant cover. The Ca:Mg, Ca:K and Mg:K stoichiometric ratios indicate the nutrient load balance in the soil.

Tropical dry forests (TDF) are among the most‐threatened terrestrial ecosystems, experiencing ongoing conversion to agricultural fields, pasture, and human settlements. Human disturbances are often precursors to invasion of ecosystems by non‐native species, but research on invasion patterns in tropical ecosystems is sparse, and there is no ...

Studies on dieback of buffel grass (Cenchrus ciliaris) in Central Queensland
Buffel grass (Cenchrus ciliaris) is an introduced, summer growing, perennial tufted tussock grass which is used extensively in improved pastures in the grazing industry. Since 1993 there has been an increasing level of dieback in buffel grass in districts of Central Queensland districts, involving red leaf symptoms and occurring in roughly circular ...

Restoring Degraded Rangelands in Northern Kenya Using Buffel Grass
Abstract— This review paper seeks to explore the potential of buffel grass (Cenchrus ciliaris L.) in the fight against land degradation within arid and semiarid areas of the world, especially Kenya. Soil degradation impacts 1. 5 billion people globally and more than 60% of the Earth’s land surface experience poverty, hunger, and environmental pollution.
