What is Soil and Vegetation Heterogeneity in Grasslands about?

This study examines the effects of different land uses (uncontrolled grazing, grazing exclusion, and mowing) on spatial heterogeneity of soil properties and vegetation in a semi-arid grassland in northern China. Geostatistical analysis was used to quantify spatial heterogeneity over 10x10 m plots with 0.5x0.5 m grid cell sampling. The results show that land use affects small-scale spatial patterns of both plants and soil organic carbon, nitrogen, and C/N ratio. Specifically, grazing exclusion sites displaye
