Changes in tropical ecosystem productivity as a result of altered climate and fire regimes

Abstract:

Tropical forests and savanna ecosystems play a fundamental role in maintaining and supporting biological diversity and ecosystem services. Tropical ecosystems regulate climatic processes by actively sequestering atmospheric carbon into plant structures, a process known as net primary productivity (NPP). However, anthropogenic impacts are increasingly threatening long-term carbon stability across tropical regions. In this context, understanding how shifting climates and fire regimes affect pro...
