Co-limitation of photosynthetic capacity by nitrogen and phosphorus in West Africa woodlands.

TL;DR: A new model is presented representing independent constraints by N and P on photosynthesis, which assumes that limitation of photosynthesis will result from the least abundant nutrient, thereby being less sensitive to the allocation of the non-limiting nutrient to non-photosynthetic pools.
Journal ArticleDOI

Variation in soil carbon stocks and their determinants across a precipitation gradient in West Africa

TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of climate, soil properties and vegetation characteristics on soil organic carbon (SOC) along a transect of West African ecosystems sampled across a precipitation gradient on contrasting soil types stretching from Ghana (15°N) to Mali (7°N).
Journal ArticleDOI

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.
