Complex effects of nitrogen pollution and grazing on nectar resources of the adult Bay Checkerspot Butterfly (Euphydryas editha bayensis)
TL;DR: Jain et al. as discussed by the authors investigated the effects of nitrogen enhancement and grazing on the shoulder-season nectar resources of the federally threatened Bay Checkerspot Butterfly (Euphydryas editha bayensis).

Vegetation Effects on Hydrology and Erosion: Grazinglands
TL;DR: In this article, the authors focus on the effect of vegetation on hydrology and erosion dynamics in rangelands and focus on two important factors related to soil health: plant foliar cover, biomass, growth/life forms, individual taxa, and management.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors used a geospatial model approach in a high-country pastoral livestock production system in New Zealand as a case study to understand and explore the spatio-temporal impact of grazing strategies on soil surface erosion.

Effects of grazing exclusion on soil infiltrability and preferential flow in savannah livestock grazing systems
TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors evaluated the effect of exclosures management on hydrological functions and services and assessed the role of different functional vegetation types in improving these functions, particularly in dry-hot savanna systems with heavy livestock grazing.

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.
