Monodominant and Species-Rich Forests of the Humid Tropics: Causes for Their Co-Occurrence
TL;DR: A study of the structure and floristics at a transition zone from a monodominant to a more diverse forest in the African humid tropics was conducted to elucidate the mechanisms maintaining floristic diversity and the discontinuity between mixed forests and forests dominated by a single tree species.
Journal ArticleDOI
African environmental and climatic changes and the general atmospheric circulation in late pleistocene and holocene
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the environmental and climatic changes which took place in Africa from the late Pleistocene through the Holocene and the general atmospheric circulation patterns which likely correspond to them.

R. B. Owen,R. Crossley,Thomas C. Johnson,D. Tweddle,Irv Kornfield,S. Davison,D. H. Eccles,D. E. Engstrom +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the evolution of the Lake Malawi cichlid population has been discussed in relation to current ideas on allopatric speciation, and the changes in lake level imply longterm changes in climate; these are highly relevant in the field of droughtrisk assessment.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Middle Stone Age of East Africa and the beginnings of regional identity

A revised 30,000-year paleoclimatic and paleohydrologic history of Lake Albert, East Africa
TL;DR: In this paper, geochemical and palynological data and a sedimentological reinterpretation of two cores from Lake Albert allow a revision of the paleoclimatic and paleohydrologic history of northwest Uganda over the last 30,000 14 C yr BP.
