Short-term land degradation driven by livestock grazing does not affect soil properties in semiarid steppe rangelands
The soil–vegetation relationships are reciprocal and fundamental for terrestrial ecosystem integrity. However, the long-term degradation of vegetation cover alters edaphic conditions, which can lead to degradation of habitats, and obstructs proper ecosystem functioning. This study aimed to assess th...
