Publications

Here you find the list of this year's papers published by members of the Grassland Sciences group as well as our Download Guidelines on Authorships (PDF, 11 KB) which we developed at our group retreat in 2006.

For papers from earlier years please check our Publication Archive. Publication lists of each group member can be accessed through the People section of our website.

We often publish in open access journals (about half of all our papers since 2012). All other papers (published since 2017) are available as postprints (i.e., the accepted manuscript after the peer review process) after the respective embargo periods of the publishers (between 2 and 36 months) in the ETH Zurich Research Collection. If you experience difficulties in finding copies of listed articles, please do not hesitate to contact the corresponding author.
