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:

Grazing intensity enhances spatial aggregation of dominant species in a desert steppe
TL;DR: It is suggested that spatial aggregation can enhance the ability of S. breviflora to tolerate grazing and that smaller isolated clusters are beneficial to the survival of this dominant species under heavy grazing.

Grazing Management, Season, and Drought Contributions to Near-Surface Soil Property Dynamics in Semiarid Rangeland
TL;DR: In this paper, a study was conducted to assess effects of grazing management and season on soil property dynamics and greenhouse gas flux within semi-arid rangeland in North Dakota.

Impact of woody plants species on soil physio-chemical properties along grazing gradients in rangelands of eastern ethiopia
TL;DR: This study evaluates the impact of two dominant woody plant species ( A. senegal and B. aegyptica ) on soil physico-chemical properties along grazing gradients in rangelands of eastern Ethiopia and finds that this tree has a significant effect on soil fertility improvement in resource poor rangeland.

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.
