Restoration of grazing management and its effect on vegetation in an upland grassland (2007, background): “) increased in cover in all managed treatments, as in other studies testing intensity or grazing itself (Bullock et al. 2001; Pavlů et al. 2003; Pykälä 2005; Louault et al. 2005).”
Extinction debt for plants and flower‐visiting insects in landscapes with contrasting land use history (2014, background): “These grasslands harbour a rich diversity of specialist plant and insect species (Eriksson & Eriksson, 1997; Pyk€al€a, 2005; Sj€odin et al., 2008).”
Livestock Type is More Crucial Than Grazing Intensity: Traditional Cattle and Sheep Grazing in Short‐Grass Steppes (2018, unknown): “…study hypotheses: (i) sheep grazing maintains a lower taxonomic and functional diversity, lower amount of forbs compared with cattle grazing (Pykälä, 2005, Jerrentrup et al., 2015); and (ii) the effects of grazing are highly intensity-dependent: the differences detected between cattle and…”
