Grasslands are ecosystems dominated by grasses and herbaceous plants, with minimal tree cover. They are found on every continent except Antarctica and are characterized by a mix of grass species that are adapted to various environmental conditions. Grasslands are important for biodiversity, supporting a wide range of plant and animal species, and are also vital for providing ecosystem services such as carbon storage, water filtration, and soil protection. They are highly vulnerable to factors such as climate change, habitat loss, overgrazing, and invasive species, making them a focal area for conservation and management efforts. Research in grasslands typically focuses on understanding the dynamics of plant communities, interactions between plants and animals, ecosystem functions, and the impacts of human activities on these ecosystems.
