Response of soil carbon and plant diversity to grazing and precipitation in High Nature Value farmlands [PDF]
Mediterranean oak-dominated agro-silvo-pastoral systems of southwestern Europe (called montado in Portugal and dehesa in Spain) are semi-natural, savannah-style High Nature Value farmlands (HNVfs) shaped by centuries of anthropogenic (e.g., cultivation ...
