Grazing intensity levels influence C reservoirs of wet and mesic meadows along a precipitation gradient in Northern Patagonia
(Springer, 2015-11)
Wet meadows are important ecosystems for forage production and as carbon reservoirs in semi-arid areas. In Patagonia, Argentina, large areas of wet meadows have been classified as overgrazed by livestock. The objective of ...
Soil salinization in Patagonian meadows with different grassland condition
(2018-08)
Patagonian meadows (locally named “mallines”) are wetlands that develop in the lower parts of the landscape, were runoff water accumulates, and organic and humid soils appear, contrasting with the surrounding steppe. An ...
Particulate organic carbon is a sensitive indicator of soil degradation related to overgrazing in Patagonian wet and mesic meadows
(Springer, 2017-09)
Patagonian meadows are key for the development and sustainability of rural environments. However, they have been degraded due to a combination of weather conditions and overgrazing. Total soil organic carbon (TOC) has been ...
Long-term grazing negatively affects nitrogen dynamics in Northern Patagonian wet meadows
(Elsevier, 2014-10)
Wet meadows are seasonally saturated wetlands that can develop in arid and semi-arid areas. In the semi-arid region of North Patagonia, Argentina wet meadows are islands of high net primary productivity surrounded by low ...
Spatial and temporal variation of primary production of Patagonian wet meadows
(Elsevier, 2010-10)
In extra-Andean Patagonia, wet meadows contrast with the prevailing arid steppes, and present a gradient of water availability from the periphery to the center. The objectives of this paper are to describe the spatial and ...
Hydrological significance of rock glaciers and other periglacial landforms as sustenance of wet meadows in the Patagonian Andes
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2021-11)
Wet meadows in mountainous areas are important environments for the ecosystem services provided, mainly those associated with the water supply to local people. In the region of the Patagonian Andes wet meadows are spatially ...
Particulate organic carbon is a sensitive indicator of soil degradation related to overgrazing in Patagonian wet and mesic meadows
(Springer, 2018-06)
Patagonian meadows are key for the development and sustainability of rural environments. However, they have been degraded due to a combination of weather conditions and overgrazing. Total soil organic carbon (TOC) has been ...
Types and internal hydro-geomorphologic variability of mallines (wet-meadows) of Patagonia: Emphasis on volcanic plateaus
(Elsevier, 2013-10)
"Mallines" (wet-meadows) are Patagonian ecosystems that provide hydric, biological and scenic resources. They develop in landscape locations that are favourable for water concentration. The area of each "mallin" is usually ...
Spatial and temporal variation of primary production of Patagonian wet meadows
(Academic Press Ltd - Elsevier Science Ltd, 2010)
Hydrodynamic and hydrochemistry of wet meadows and shallow lakes in areas of the Patagonian basaltic plateaus, Argentina
(Elsevier, 2020-11)
Extra-Andean Patagonia, located in the south end of South America, is a wide arid region where the basaltic plateau landscape dominates. Associated with the basaltic plateaus, wet meadows and shallow lakes make up environments ...
