Interpretation of soil delta(13)C as an indicator of vegetation change in African savannas
Question: The relationship between carbon-13 in soil organic matter and C3 and C4 plant abundance is complicated because of differential productivity, litter fall and decomposition. As a result, applying a mass balance equation to δ13C data from soils cannot be used to infer past C3 and C4 plant abu...
