TLDR
In this article, the authors evaluated the impact of multi-paddock (MP) grazing at a high stocking rate compared to light continuous (LC) and heavy continuous (HC) grazing on neighboring commercial ranches in each of three proximate counties in north Texas tall grass prairie.About:

Extracellular enzyme activity response to defoliation and water addition in two ecosites of the mixed grass prairie
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that while EEAs are strongly affected by environmental conditions, defoliation during the growing season may interact with the physical environment and regulate biogeochemical cycling.

Ecological water conveyance drives human-water system evolution in the Heihe watershed, China.
TL;DR: The results highlighted that analysis on the mutual feedback effect in the coupled human-water system, and dynamic adjustments for restoration measures are needed for sustainable watershed management.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pasture-derived greenhouse gas emissions in cow-calf production systems.
TL;DR: No clear trade-offs between GHG were observed; generally, GHG emissions increased from 2011 to 2013, which was likely associated with weather conditions, such as higher daily temperature and precipitation events.

Soil carbon sequestration in cool-temperate dryland pastures: mechanisms and management options
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an overview of the processes and mechanisms responsible for carbon sequestration in permanent pastures, and discuss the merits of traditional and emerging pasture management practices for increasing soil organic carbon (SOC) in pastures.

Resource Availability and Plant Antiherbivore Defense
TL;DR: Resource availability in the environment is proposed as the major determinant of both the amount and type of plant defense, and theories on the evolution of plant defenses are compared with other theories.

Analysis of factors controlling soil organic matter levels in Great Plains grasslands
TL;DR: In this article, a model of soil organic matter (SOM) quantity and composition was used to simulate steady-state organic matter levels for 24 grassland locations in the U.S. Great Plains.
