On the delineation of tropical vegetation types with an emphasis on forest/savanna transitions

TL;DR: In this article, the authors integrated observed variations in tropical vegetation structure and floristic composition into a single classification scheme by using clustering techniques to identify twelve structural groupings based on height and canopy cover of the dominant upper stratum.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structural, physiognomic and above-ground biomass variation in savanna–forest transition zones on three continents – how different are co-occurring savanna and forest formations?

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present detailed stratified floristic and structural analyses for forest and savanna stands located mostly within zones of transition (where both vegetation types occur in close proximity) in Africa, South America and Australia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pan-tropical prediction of forest structure from the largest trees

Jean-François Bastin, +142 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a pan-tropical model was proposed to predict plot-level forest structure properties and biomass from only the largest trees, which can be used to generate accurate field estimates of tropical forest carbon stocks to support the calibration and validation of current and forthcoming space missions.
