Rainfall seasonality and drought performance shape the distribution of tropical tree species in Ghana
Abstract Tree species distribution in lowland tropical forests is strongly associated with rainfall amount and distribution. Not only plant water availability, but also irradiance, soil fertility, and pest pressure covary along rainfall gradients. To assess the role of water availability in shaping...
