Desert sagebrush-bunchgrass steppes of Central Kazakhstan
Vegetation of Russia, 2016 The considerable vegetation researches of the Kazakhstan steppes were realized in 1957–1959, 1964–1968. The vast materials with relevés of desert steppes’ communities were collected in according to the generally accepted methods of geobotanical investigations either with assistance of detailed field routes or at the scientific stations (Kratkoe…, 1952;

Grazing exclusion alters ecosystem carbon pools in Alxa desert steppe [PDF]
New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, 2011 The Alxa desert steppe has been strongly degraded by overgrazing, contributing c. 22% of the total springtime dust originating from Asia. Previous work in this region has focused on the impacts of grazer exclusion on restoration of vegetation and soil fertility, yet carbon dynamics are not well known.
