The savanna biome consists of areas of open grassland with very few trees. Biomes are defined by their unique vegetation and animal life, and the savanna is a type of grassland biome. There are two kinds of savannas: tropical and semi-tropical savannas. Tropical savannas are typically found ne...

The long-term Quaternary vegetation and climate history in South Africa’s savanna biome since ca. 190,000 yr BP, is elucidated by the palynological record of lake sediments in the Tswaing Crater (the Pretoria Saltpan), and spring deposits from Wonderkrater, despite hiatuses in ...

The vegetation type is classified as central sandy bushveld within the savanna biome (Rutherford et al., 2006). The NNR has a seasonal climate with hot, wet summers in which an average of 85% of the 623 mm mean annual precipitation (MAP) falls between October and March (Huntley and ...
See Table 1 for the description of sites. The general trend in the frequency of root gaps across sites was similar for all except the 5th percentile threshold (Fig. 6). The frequency of root gaps was highest in the drier savanna sites decreasing along a plant available moisture gradient ...
