Facilitation or Competition? Tree Effects on Grass Biomass across a Precipitation Gradient
Savanna ecosystems are dominated by two distinct plant life forms, grasses and trees, but the interactions between them are poorly understood. Here, we quantified the effects of isolated savanna trees on grass biomass as a function of distance from the base of the tree and tree height, across a prec...
