🔗 #Topography & grazing exclusion ➡️ vegetation and soil in typical steppe on the Loess Plateau

Results:
1️⃣ Soil moisture peaked at 3 years of exclusion.
2️⃣ Aspect and slope positively affected the relationship between soil properties and aboveground biomass significantly.
3️⃣ Livestock exclusion of sunny slope is more beneficial to soil nutrient accumulation than shady slope.
