As the largest terrestrial ecosystem carbon (C) sink, soils store about 2500 Pg C in the top 1 m depth. Rangelands make up around 40 % of global land surface and contain about 30 % of global terrestrial soil organic carbon (SOC). Grazing is the most important use of rangelands worldwide which whe...
