TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a synthesis of rotational and continuous grazing on rangelands and conclude that rotational grazing is superior to continuous grazing in terms of ecological effectiveness.
591 citations
TL;DR: In this article, the authors synthesize the ecological concepts and perspectives underpinning the development and application of state-and-transition models, thresholds, and rangeland health.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors summarized what we know (and don't know) about three fundamentally different kinds of pinon-juniper vegetation, and provided a source of information for managers and policy makers, and stimulate researchers to address the most important unanswered questions.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of grazing on soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks in grasslands were investigated and the major mechanistic pathways involved were established, including changes in net primary production (NPP), changes in nitrogen stocks (nitrogen pathway), and changes in organic matter decomposition (decomposition pathway).
330 citations
TL;DR: The goal of this synthesis is to initiate development of a unified framework for threshold assessment that is able to link ecological theory and processes with management knowledge and application and provide an operational definition of thresholds based on a probabilistic interpretation.
