Climate and soil effects on tree species diversity and aboveground carbon patterns in semi-arid tree savannas

Climate and soil effects on tree species diversity and aboveground carbon patterns in semi-arid tree savannas

Abstract Climatic and edaphic effects are increasingly being discussed in the context of biodiversity-ecosystem functioning. Here we use data from West African semi-arid tree savannas and contrasting climatic conditions (lower vs. higher mean annual precipitation-MAP and mean annual temperature-MAT)...
