Spatial distribution of shrubs and perennial plants under grazing disturbance in the desert steppe of Inner Mongolia

Global Ecology and Conservation
The desert steppe is unique as a transition zone from the steppe to the desert of the Eurasian Steppe. The spatial distribution of shrubs and perennial plants has changed due to long-term disturbance caused by overgrazing in the ecosystem.
