Changes in plant community structure are identified as a result of grazing in grasslands of the flooding pampa which evolved under supposedly light grazing conditions. The effect of excluding grazing upon total leaf area index was an increase of 30%. The largest response was observed in the distrib

In an experimental study on the effect of parrotfish (probably Scarus taeniurus) grazing on the structure of benthic reef communities, fishes in densities of 0.6 to 1.5 parrotfish per m 2 or 9 to 17 g wet weight of fish per m 2 of feeding surface were found to have an optimum effect, resulting in th

A survey was carded out on four stands of a chalk grassland (open, intensively grazed, tall and scrub) in order to monitor the permanent soil seed bank under various management regimes responsible for the decline of the ecological interest of this ecosystem. There was no real similarity between the

A replicated factorial experiment was designed to test the hypothesis that manipulating inputs of water and mineral nitrogen to a semiarid grassland would disrupt existing interactions resulting in alteration of the structure of the primary producer community. Alteration of community structure was m
