We assess the impact of release from cattle grazing on the abundance and diversity of both winter and summer annual plant communities at an upper Chihuahuan Desert scrub site in south-eastern Arizona. In contrast to previous studies, we found that removal of herbivores (cattle) had little impact on
## Abstract Waterlogging is a challenge to wheat (__Triticum durum__ Desf.) productivity under the rainfed system on Vertisols in the Ethiopian Highlands. However using suitable seedbed types and manipulating planting dates can minimize the effects. A fourβyear (2000β2003) field experiment was cond
## Abstract Largeβscale grassland rehabilitation has been carried out on the severely degraded lands of the Tibetan plateau. The grasslands created provide a useful model for evaluating the recovery of ecosystem properties. The purposes of this research were: (1) to examine the relative influence o
Due to burrowing activity and selective feeding, the highveld gerbil, Tatera brantsii A. Smith, has a great influnce on grassland vegetation. Within old colonies, in comparison to control sites, total biomass of plants was reduced by 47.6% from an average of 234.0 g/m to 122.6 g/m. Root biomass was
