Abstract
► Cattle trampling has strong, nonlinear effects on ground cover and soil erosion. ► A mathematical model relates trampling intensity to stocking rate and herding pattern. ► Modeling relates landscape-scale effects to plot-scale measurements. ► Disruption of sandy surface layers affects erosion more than does cover reduction.
