Eco-physiological responses of dominant species to watering in a natural grassland community on the semi-arid Loess Plateau of China

Altered precipitation regimes significantly affect ecosystem structure and function in arid and semi-arid regions. In order to investigate effects of precipitation changes on natural grassland community in the semi-arid Loess Plateau, the current research examined eco-physiological characteristics o...
