Publisher's Synopsis
Sustainability is the overall goal in the management of grassland resources; it ensures that the institutional framework within each grassland use is planned and implemented. Recent developments emphasize the need to include ecosystem services (supporting, provisioning, regulating, and cultural) provided by grasslands into this framework. The reprint is a follow up of the successful Special Issue published in 2024, and focuses on research advantages related to the ecology and management of grasslands and to the safeguarding of related ecosystem services and provides an outline for future directions for sustainability. The reprint contains experimental studies and systematic reviews regarding grassland biodiversity, issues and threats related to grasslands, sustainable use of grasslands, ecosystem services they provide, and other topics.
