We identi®ed and measured changes in soil characteristics, nutrient availability and microbial activity to a gradient of grazing intensity in the Chaco region of northwestern Argentina (248 430 S and 638 170 W). Three sites were selected for comparison: 1. highly restored (no grazing for 20 years); 2. moderately restored (eight years of restoration); and 3. highly degraded (a typical Chaco camp...
