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 ...
Edaphic patchiness influences grassland regeneration from the soil seed bank in mountain grasslands of central Argentina
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2001-04)
The soil seed- banks in the main natural vegetation patches that makes up mountain grasslands on granite substrates in central Argentina were studied. The main natural vegetation types are moist swards, tall- tussock ...
A SIMULATION MODEL OF MESOPHYTIC PERENNIAL GRASSLANDS
(INST INVESTIGACIONES AGROPECUARIAS, 2012)
Grasslands are complex ecosystems and their processes are affected by soil, meteorological, and management variables. In this context, dynamic simulation models are useful to understand these processes and to design grassland ...
A comparison of bird communities in natural and revegetated grasslands in south Brazil
(Soc Brasileira Ornitologia, 2019-09-01)
Natural grasslands are declining due to loss, fragmentation and degradation, resulting in the decline of grassland-associated bird species. The Pampas Biome in south Brazil is not exception to this worldwide trend, facing ...

Natural grasslands are declining due to loss, fragmentation and degradation, resulting in the decline of grasslandassociated bird species. The Pampas Biome in south Brazil is not exception to this worldwide trend, facing ...
More stable productivity of semi natural grasslands than sown pastures in a seasonally dry climate
(2015-01-27)
In the Neotropics the predominant pathway to intensify productivity is generally thought to be to convert grasslands to
sown pastures, mostly in monoculture. This article examines how above-ground net primary productivity ...
Responses of birds to planting of Lotus tenuis pasture in the Flooding Pampas, Argentina
(Csiro Publishing, 2015-03)
The Flooding Pampas is the most important livestock region of Argentina, but is a region where replacement of originally natural, perennial tussock grasses by pasture species is changing the heterogeneity of the grassland ...
Pampean-grassland heterogeneity on the intersection of science, art, and culture
(Fondazione Internazionale pro Herbario Mediterraneo, 2018-12)
Since prehistoric times, temperate grasslands have provided favorable habitat for human subsistence. Ease of exploitation, however, has caused that temperate grasslands are among the most destroyed terrestrial ecosystems. ...
Overseeding legumes in natural grasslands: Impacts on root biomass and soil organic matter of commercial farms
(Elsevier, 2020-11)
Overseeding legumes in natural grasslands coupled with phosphorous fertilization are management practices oriented to increase forage production and quality, and to restore nutrient losses generated by livestock. Several ...
Feral horses dung piles as potential windows for alien plants in natural grasslands
(Springer, 2008-08)
Small scale disturbances could act as patches that provide sites for the colonization of competitively inferior species, promoting the establishment of non-native species in some cases. We analyzed the vegetation associated ...
