There has been a rapidly developing literature on the effects of some of the major drivers of
global change on carbon (C) sequestration, particularly carbon dioxide (CO2) enrichment …

Savannas are heterogeneous ecosystems, composed of varied spatial combinations and
proportions of woody and herbaceous vegetation. Most field-based inventory and remote …

Besides water vapour, greenhouse gases CO2, CH4, O3 and N2O contribute~ 60%, 20%,
10% and 6% to global warming, respectively; minor contribution is made by …

Australia is among the most fire-prone of continents. While national fire management policy
is focused on irregular and comparatively smaller fires in densely settled southern Australia …

Northern Australia stands out as one of the largest natural areas remaining on Earth-
alongside such global treasures as the Amazon rainforests, the boreal conifer forests of …

Although the demography of woody plants in savannas has long been shown to be due to
many factors, there still is no consensus as to the relative importance of the top-down …

Savannas comprise a large area of the global land surface and are subject to frequent
disturbance through fire. The role of fire as one of the primary natural carbon cycling …

Although biomass burning of savannas is recognised as a major global source of
greenhouse gas emissions, quantification remains problematic with resulting regional …

Tropical savannas are typically highly productive yet fire‐prone ecosystems, and it has been
suggested that reducing fire frequency in savannas could substantially increase the size of …

Tropical savannas are characterized by high primary productivity and high fire frequency,
such that much of the carbon captured by vegetation is rapidly returned to the atmosphere …
