Vegetation change in variable rangeland environments: the relative contribution of drought and soil type in arid rangelands

open access: yesEkologia, 2013
AbstractThe response of a plant community to protection from grazing, as a function of year and soil type, was studied in the arid rangelands of southern Tunisia between 2007 and 2009. The vegetation of rangelands is often altered under grazing pressure, but unfortunately, removing the grazing pressure often does not reverse the changes in the way the ...
