The response mechanisms of plant community composition, functional group biomass, vegetation‐soil properties, and community stability to plateau pika and mowing disturbance intensity exhibited distinct differences. Gramineae and Sedge aboveground biomass and soil nutrient content demonstrated more pronounced responses to both disturbances and their ...

Justice in coexistence: Pastoralism and large carnivores on the Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau
Abstract The conflict between livestock husbandry and large carnivore conservation presents significant challenges in grassland ecosystems worldwide. Achieving sustainable coexistence among herders, livestock and large carnivores requires reconciling diverse perspectives and interests through equitable, inclusive and fair processes that address both ...

Comparison of social-ecological resilience between two grassland management patterns driven by grassland land contract policy in the Maqu, Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau [PDF]
Embraced for decision-making, resilience has evolved as a meaningful term in areas such as ecology, the economy and society. After a policy of grassland contracts was implemented on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau, two grassland management patterns evolved ...
