The hypothetical degradation trajectory in ‘Overgrazing leads to soil cracking that later triggers the severe degradation of alpine meadows on the Tibetan Plateau’ was not precisely right

Abstract

During reading the paper recently (Niu et al., 2019), I found that the hypothetical degradation trajectory was not of precisely validity. According to their data, they hypothesized a degradation trajectory of an alpine rangeland based on the cracking phenomenon induced by overgrazing.
