The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between total community and Plant Functional Types (PFTs) Aboveground Net Primary Production (ANPP) with soil variables. Sampling done in two altitude gradients (20-3300m) and 25 sites at the rangelands of the northern Ardabil province in 2016. In each site, PFTs ANPP and soil were sampled. […]
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of environmental factors on the plant composition and diversity in QezelOzan – Kosar rangelands of Ardabil province, Iran in 2016. Eight sites with elevation ranging from 900 to 2100 meters above sea level were selected, and three 100-m transects with 10 plots of 1 m2 […]
The object of this study was to compare predictive accuracy of some individual modeling methods versus ensemble modeling approach in estimating the spatial potential distribution and identifying ecological requirements of Artemisia sieberi in desert rangelands of Yazd province, Central Iran. For this purpose, the species presence data were collected using the random systematic sampling method […]
In rangeland management, the ecological needs and response of plants to the environment is studied by investigating the relationship among measurements of plants and environmental factors. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between plant density, vegetation cover and biomass of Salsola turcomanica with the soil physico-chemical properties. For this purpose, in […]
