Global change (e.g., nitrogen deposition or shift in precipitation pattern) and anthropogenic activities (e.g., mowing) substantially alter grassland ecosystem structure and functions, whereas how glo
Grazing can directly or indirectly influence carbon (C) inputs, turnover, and retention in grassland soil. However, relative to the plant response to grazing, belowground biota and process responses a
1) We investigate where bottom-up and top-down control regulates ecological communities as a mechanism linking ecological gradients to the geography of consumer abundance and biomass. We use standardi
Long-term monitoring of grasslands is pivotal for ensuring continuity of many environmental services and for supporting food security and environmental modelling. Remote sensing provides an irreplacea
1. The turnover of litter layer is a biogeochemical process fundamental to carbon and nutrient cycling, influencing seed germination, species coexisting, and carbon storage. Winter snow depth is under
