Coevolutionary dynamics in the grass-livestock social-ecological system of China's alpine pastoral areas: A case study of the Qilian Mountains region in China. by Ligan Cai, Junhao Zhao, Jian Chen

“…Evaluating the dynamic co-evolution and feedback mechanisms within socio-ecological systems is crucial for determining the resilience and sustainability of environmental governance strategies. The grass-livestock system, as a complex entity encompassing livestock nutrition, foraging behavior, vegetation ecology, pastoralists' economic income, and policy interventions, indicates that any change in a single element may trigger a chain reaction within the system. …”
