Do high soil temperatures on Namibian fairy circle discs explain the absence of vegetation?
Evenly-dispersed enigmatic bare discs known as ‘fairy circles’ occur within grasslands of the pro-Namib Desert. In spite of their conspicuous appearance, their nature and origin is still debated. The possible inhibitory effects of high surface and sub-surface soil temperatures on grass germination a...
