Can savannas become forests? A coupled analysis of nutrient stocks and fire thresholds in central Brazil
(2013-07-26)
Aims: The effects of fire ensure that large areas of the seasonal tropics are maintained as savannas. The advance of forests into these areas depends on shifts in species composition and the presence of sufficient nutrients. ...

A research agenda for the restoration of tropical and subtropical grasslands and savannas
(2021-04-01)
Despite growing recognition of the conservation value of grassy biomes, our understanding of how to restore biodiverse tropical and subtropical grassy biomes (grasslands and savannas; TGB) remains limited. Several tools ...
Fire promotes functional plant diversity and modifies soil carbon dynamics in tropical savanna
(2022-03-15)
Fire is an evolutionary environmental filter in tropical savanna ecosystems altering functional diversity and associated C pools in the biosphere and fluxes between the atmosphere and biosphere. Therefore, alterations in ...
Morphology, secretion composition, and ecological aspects of stipular colleters in Rubiaceae species from tropical forest and savanna
(2015-11-19)
Colleters are secretory structures that produce and release mucilage or a mucilage-resin mixture protecting meristems and young structures against desiccation, herbivores, and pathogens. The secretions may vary in colleters ...
