摘要： The Mongolian Plateau represents an integrated physical geography unit characterized by ecological gradient continuity and similarity. Under long-term divergent management regimes, the social-ecological systems (SES) of grasslands in China and Mongolia have demonstrated distinct evolutionary trajectories. Clarifying these evolutionary patterns holds significant importance for promoting innovative regional grassland management. This study employs segmented linear regression methods to identify the evolutionary processes of grassland SES in Mongolia, while conducting comparative research with the evolutionary patterns observed in Inner Mongolia, China. Key findings reveal that from 1921 to 2020, Mongolian grassland SES underwent four distinct phases: traditional nomadic pastoralism period, collectivized production period, post-transition pastoral period, and community-based grassland management period. A comparative analysis between Inner Mongolia and Mongolia reveals that, under different management frameworks, both regions have exhibited overall positive trends in their most recent stages of SES evolution. Dynamic changes in key indicators during recent stages further validate this improving trajectory of grassland SES. The process-tracing analysis reveals that the positive development in Inner Mongolia primarily stems from the implementation of ecological conservation policies, whereas Mongolia’s improvement is mainly attributable to natural ecosystem management that emphasizes community-based approaches. Although both management systems demonstrate unique advantages, they are facing increasingly uncertain environmental challenges, making cross-border grassland governance imperative. Future efforts should focus on exploring deeper institutional matching models and adaptive governance practices between both parties to establish an effective regional SES governance framework. This cross-border synergy will better address emerging environmental uncertainties while optimizing the social ecological sustainability of grasslands across the Mongolian plateau.
