Grassland carbon sequestration and emissions following cultivation in a mixed crop rotation [PDF]

, 2012
Grasslands are potential carbon sinks to reduce unprecedented increase in atmospheric CO2. Effect of age (1 to 4-yr-old) and management (slurry, grazing multispecies mixture) of a grass phase mixed crop rotation on carbon sequestration and emissions upon

Nitrogen fertilizer regulates soil respiration by altering the organic carbon storage in root and topsoil in alpine meadow of the north-eastern Qinghai-Tibet Plateau

Scientific Reports, 2019
Soil respiration (Rs) plays a critical role in the global carbon (C) balance, especially in the context of globally increasing nitrogen (N) deposition. However, how N-addition influences C cycle remains unclear.

Prototype Biodiversity Digital Twin: grassland biodiversity dynamics [PDF]

Research Ideas and Outcomes
European grassland management has often favoured high production through frequent mowing and heavy fertilisation over biodiversity conservation, which is typically supported by less intensive management.

Potential impacts of land‐management schedules on grassland bird nests and fledglings

Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2023
Trade‐offs exist between timing of grassland habitat management activities (e.g., weed and brush control) while also ensuring other conservation objectives (e.g., grassland bird reproductive success) are met. On land set aside for grassland conservation (

Modeling vegetation and carbon dynamics of managed grasslands at the global scale with LPJmL 3.6 [PDF]

Geoscientific Model Development, 2018
Grassland management affects the carbon fluxes of one-third of the global land area and is thus an important factor for the global carbon budget. Nonetheless, this aspect has been largely neglected or underrepresented in global carbon cycle models. We

Grassland management and helminth control on cattle farms [PDF]

, 2017
Farmers manage their pastures and grazing animals primarily to ensure that swards provide adequate, quality nutrients to support animal performance, but it is also possible to provide useful levels of parasite control without compromising production.

Strengthening grassland carbon source and sink management to enhance its contribution to regional carbon neutrality

Ecological Indicators, 2023
Grassland ecosystems are an important part of terrestrial ecosystems. It is of great significance to fully tap the potential of grassland carbon sinks to achieve the goal of carbon neutrality in the region and even worldwide.

Sheepfolds induce significant increase of seasonal CO2, CH4 and N2O emissions in temperate steppes of Inner Mongolia

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
IntroductionThe changes in grassland management and grassland types are strongly linked with dynamics in soil physico-chemical properties and vegetation attributes, with important implications for carbon/nitrogen cycling and greenhouse gas (GHG) fluxes ...
