Trajectories and state changes of a grassland stream and riparian zone after a decade of woody vegetation removal

Ecological Applications, Volume 33, Issue 4, June 2023., 2023
Abstract Riparian zones and the streams they border provide vital habitat for organisms, water quality protection, and other important ecosystem services. These areas are under pressure from local (land use/land cover change) to global (climate change) processes. Woody vegetation is expanding in grassland riparian zones worldwide.
