“…There was reduction in the relative frequency of climbing plants, Cyperaceae, and monocot species (poor cover), and increase in broad-leaf species (good cover) and grasses. In both seasons, the highest percentages of points with bare soil were found in the high conventional treatment, while the lowest percentages were found in all treatments under medium and low organic management, and in three out of the seven treatments under medium conventional management. …”

Understanding the impact of vegetation dynamics on the water cycle in the Noah-MP model by Atefeh Hosseini, David M. Mocko, David M. Mocko, Nathaniel A. Brunsell, Sujay V. Kumar, Sarith Mahanama, Sarith Mahanama, Kristi Arsenault, Kristi Arsenault, Joshua K. Roundy

“…This indicates that the incoming net radiation limits the total evaporation, as the presence of adequate soil moisture allows for higher soil evaporation when LAI limits transpiration; (b) regardless of the model version, the force of the precipitation largely dictates the accuracy of evapotranspiration (ET) simulation; (c) Overestimation of LE resulted in underestimation of streamflow, particularly over the land surface type dominated by a combination of grasses and cropland in the western and central part of the state; (d) all of the tested Noah-MP 4.0.1 vegetation physics produced spatial patterns of drought that more closely matched the USDM as compared to version 3.6. …”

Land Space Ecological Restoration Zoning in Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Bay Area from the Perspective of Supply and Demand of Ecosystem Services by Zhou Rubo, Lin Meizhen, Wu Zhuo

“…Territorial spatial ecological restoration zoning is an important basis for implementing differentiated protection and restoration strategies and an important premise for promoting the integrated protection and restoration of mountains, rivers, forests, fields, lakes, and grasses and regional coordinated governance. In the current research on territorial spatial ecological restoration zoning, less attention is paid to human demand for ecosystem services and territorial spatial ecological restoration zoning from the perspective of the supply and demand of ecosystem services. …”

Influence of soil warming magnitude and duration on soluble sugar pool in fine roots and rhizomes of subarctic grasslands: Differences at species and plant community level adaptati... by Biplabi Bhattarai, Andreas Richter, Dennis Metze, Bjarni D. Sigurdsson, Páll Sigurdsson, Niki Leblans, Ivan Janssens, Ivika Ostonen

“…However, it increased the TSS and sucrose concentration in rhizomes, which positively correlated with the abundance of grasses. The TSS pool in fine roots decreased with soil warming in MTW, mainly due to a decline in fine root biomass that described 70 % of the decline in the TSS pool. …”
