(Universidade Federal de Santa Maria, 2022)
Floristics and characterization of the ferrugineous rocky grasslands at Serra da Calçada, Minas Gerais state, BrazilFlorística E Caracterização Dos Campos Rupestres Sobre Canga Na Serra Da Calçada, Minas Gerais, Brasil1
(2007-01-01)
Ferrugineous rocky grasslands are a peculiar environment frequently found at the Quadrilátero Ferrifero region, Minas Gerais State. The vegetation, associated to hematitic outcrops, presents physiological and morphological ...
Vegetation change in response to grazing exclusion in montane grasslands, Argentina
(National Botanic National Botanic Garden of Belgium and Royal Botanical Society of Belgium, 2012-11)
Background and aims – Natural montane grasslands in the Southern Pampas of Argentina are expected to show a high potential for recovery after heavy grazing due to their evolutionary history in the presence of large herbivores ...
Temperate Subhumid Grasslands of Southern South America
(Elsevier, 2019)
Temperate subhumid grasslands extend in the eastern part of South America. This region represents one of the most diverse,largest and less transformed grassland areas in the world. The grasslands occupy the vast and ...
Fire as stimulant of shrub recruitment in northwestern Patagonian (Argentina) grasslands
(Springer Tokyo, 2013-06)
One strategy of plant survival during post-fire succession is to persist and regenerate by recruiting new individuals from a fire-resistant seed bank. The heat, smoke, and charcoal released during plant combustion may act ...
Different grazing strategies are necessary to conserve endangered grassland birds in short and tall salty grasslands of the flooding PampasDiferentes estrategias de pastoreo son necesarias para conservar las aves amenazadas en pastizales halófitos cortos y altos de la Pampa deprimida en Argentina
(Cooper Ornithological Society, 2011-11)
We evaluated how grazing affects bird assemblages in short and tall coastal salty grasslands at Samborombón Bay, Argentina. We studied ranches with three patterns of grazing (spatial rotation, continuous, and winter grazing) ...
Progress in understanding the hydrology of high-elevation andean grasslands under changing land use
(2022)
High-elevation grasslands worldwide provide essential hydrological services including water provision, flow regulation, and erosion control. Despite their importance, hydrological research of grasslands in montane regions ...
To resist or to germinate? The effect of fire on legume seeds in Brazilian subtropical grasslands
(Soc Botanica Brasil, 2016-01-01)
Fire plays an important role in several grassland ecosystems in the world. Fire can trigger germination in several species, by breaking the physical dormancy of their seeds. Thus, we hypothesized that exposure to high ...
Determinants of grassland primary production in seasonally-dry silvopastoral systems in Central America
(2014-06)
Grassland primary productivity is the function that underpins the majority of the fodder production in cattle-rearing silvopastoral farms. Hence, understanding the factors that determine grassland productivity is critical ...
Modern pollen assemblages of surface samples and their relationships to vegetation in the campos region of Uruguay
(Elsevier Science, 2012-08)
This study documents the relationship between the modern pollen assemblages and the main vegetation types of the campos region of Uruguay. A total of 46 surface soil samples from grasslands, riparian forests, low mountain ...
