Grasslands store approximately one third of the global terrestrial carbon stocks and can act
as an important soil carbon sink. Recent studies show that plant diversity increases soil …

Two major environmental challenges of our time are responding to climate change and
reversing biodiversity decline. Interventions that simultaneously tackle both challenges are …

Megafauna (animals≥ 45 kg) have probably shaped the Earth's terrestrial ecosystems for
millions of years with pronounced impacts on biogeochemistry, vegetation, ecological …

There is growing interest in aligning the wildlife conservation and restoration agenda with
climate change mitigation goals. However, the presence of large herbivores tends to reduce …

Human activities have more than doubled reactive nitrogen (N) deposited in ecosystems,
perturbing the N cycle and considerably impacting plant, animal, and microbial communities …

Grazing by mammalian herbivores can be a climate mitigation strategy as it influences the
size and stability of a large soil carbon (soil-C) pool (more than 500 Pg C in the world's …

Enhancing soil carbon (C) storage has the potential to offset human‐caused increases in
atmospheric CO2. Rising CO2 has occurred concurrently with increasing supply rates of …

Grasslands have been widely grazed for livestock production by cattle and sheep. However,
previous studies have mainly focused on the impacts of single-species grazing on grassland …

Aim Biodiversity drives the delivery of multiple ecosystem functions related to carbon and
nutrient cycling (ecosystem multifunctionality, EMF), and biodiversity and ecosystem …

All species within ecosystems contribute to regulating carbon cycling because of their
functional integration into food webs. Yet carbon modeling and accounting still assumes that …
