Ecosystem management can mitigate vegetation shifts induced byclimate change in West Africa
tThe welfare of people in the tropics and sub-tropics strongly depends on goods and services that savannaecosystems supply, such as food and livestock production, fuel wood, and climate regulation. Flows ofthese services ...
Restoration of Degraded Lands in West Africa Sahel: Review of experiences in Burkina Faso and Niger
This is a comprehensive literature review of land restoration activities in West Africa Sahel.
Water constraints and the inherent soil poverty are the major factors that limit crop yields and productivity of cropping systems ...

Poster of Stakeholders mapping, analysis and engagement in Southern Mali
Relationships between soil seed banks and above-ground vegetation along a disturbance gradient in the W National Park trans-boundary biosphere reserve, West Africa
Aims
Vegetation succession depends on the availability of suitable propagules
in the soils, thus knowledge of soil seed banks is essential
for formulating effective strategies for restoring the vegetation of
degraded sites. ...

Planting basin (Soil and water conservation) planned comparison protocol
Agricultural productivity in arid and semi-arid areas,such as Kitui and Makueni counties of Kenya,
is limited by several challenges. These include water scarcity resulting from unpredictable and
unreliable rains, and land ...
Food banks and technology parks
The indigenous fruit and vegetable trees of Mali in the Drylands of the West African Sahel grow in varied but well adapted environments. The highly diverse indigenous trees are year-round sources of food and nutrition ...
Spatial Variation in Tree Density and Estimated Aboveground Carbon Stocks in Southern Africa
Variability in woody plant species, vegetation assemblages and anthropogenic activities derails the efforts to have common approaches for estimating biomass and carbon stocks in Africa. In order to suggest management ...
Perspectives in restoration: storage and pretreatments of seeds for better germination of Sudanian savanna-woodland species
Insufficient knowledge of the germination
ecology of local species is one of the main constraints to
restoration of degraded rural lands. We tested seeds from
fourteen Sudanian savanna species targeted for restoration
for ...
