摘要: In nature management, the introduction of large herbivores into human-influenced grasslands is thought to be effective maintain or enhance plant diversity. order test validity this assumption, we studied effect grazing by on species richness and community heterogeneity across a soil acidity gradient at different spatial scales in dry coastal dune western Belgium north-western France. The varied with scale acidity. Grazing had predominantly positive all habitats small (0.25 · 0.25 m). However, site (8 8 m) it only effects
