Tree Cover Bimodality in Savannas and Forests Emerging from the Switching between Two Fire Dynamics
Moist savannas and tropical forests share the same climatic conditions and occur side by side. Experimental evidences show that the tree cover of these ecosystems exhibits a bimodal frequency distribution. This is considered as a proof of savanna–forest bistability, predicted by dynamic vegetation m...
