Trait-mediated linkages and stocking rate thresholds in plant-community-soil feedbacks to long-term grazing in a Stipa breviflora desert steppe
This study advances the theoretical framework of multi-component coupling in arid grassland ecosystems, providing direct scientific support for determining critical stocking rates and implementing precise restoration of degraded grasslands in Inner Mongolia <i>S. breviflora</i> desert steppe.
