The cascading impacts of livestock grazing in upland ecosystems : a 10-year experiment (2015, methodology): “…1999), recent changes in policy and regulations have resulted in an emergent process of abandonment of marginal grasslands at the continental scale (Tranter et al. 2007), with significant implications for species and/or habitats of conservation concern (Evans et al. 2006a, Sanderson et al. 2013).”
Large scale experimental effects of three levels of sheep densities on an alpine ecosystem (2008, background): “As large herbivores are also expected to have indirect effects on plants due to interactions with small herbivores (Evans et al. 2006), we also examine if sheep grazing affects rodent grazing as measured by a rodent sign index (Lambin et al. 2000, Evans et al. 2006).”
