Different responses of soil element contents and their stoichiometry (C: N: P) to different grazing intensity on the Tibetan Plateau shrublands

Different responses of soil element contents and their stoichiometry (C: N: P) to different grazing intensity on the Tibetan Plateau shrublands

Potentilla fruticosa, a major alpine shrubland type, is widely distributed across the Tibetan Plateau, and grazing is the most common disturbance in the shrublands of P. fruticosa. However, soil organic carbon (SOC), soil total nitrogen (STN), soil total phosphorus (STP), and their stoichiometry und...
