Overgrazing and climate warming are important drivers of alpine grassland degradation worldwide. Local indigenous peoples will be the first impacted by such degradation due to impacts on animal production and the availability of local medicinal plants. Studies on plant responses to overgrazing and climate change are rarely performed to assess threats to these biolo… Show more
