Modification of the Savanna Functioning by Herbivores

2006
Beyond consumption of a given amount of the net primary production (NPP), herbivores may have major effects on ecosystem structure, functioning and dynamics (e.g., [35]). Many authors have represented plant-herbivore interactions by predation-like relationships [8] assuming that herbivory has a purely negative impact on plant growth.

Savannas Need Protection

Science, 2010
The Savanna biome covers 20% of Earth's land surface; contributes 30% of terrestrial net primary production (NPP) ([ 1 ][1], [ 2 ][2]) (equivalent to the contribution of tropical forests); and accounts for 85% of the global area of land burnt annually ([ 3 ][3]).

Savanna futures

2016
Abstract Constant change is the driving force in the history of savannas, and some conception of the future can be gauged from evidence of past changes and from trends experienced today. The potential futures for savanna landscapes may be depicted as two interconnected sets of processes: variations caused by natural events including ...
