Annual production fraction of aboveground biomass in relation to plant shrubbiness in savanna
A new means of estimating the annual production fraction of aboveground biomass of woody plants along a full shrub-tree continuum in savanna is presented. A measure of shrubbiness was found to be quantitatively definable over a shrub-tree continuum, to closely relate to the annual production fractio...
