Grazing effects on intraspecific trait variability vary with changing precipitation patterns in Mongolian rangelands
Abstract Functional traits are proxies for plant physiology and performance, which do not only differ between species but also within species. In this work, we hypothesized that (a) with increasing precipitation, the percentage of focal species which significantly respond to changes in grazing inten...
