Reconstructing savanna tree cover from pollen, phytoliths and stable carbon isotopes

Aim: To calibrate a model of the relationship between bio-proxies (pollen, phytoliths and δ¹³C of soil organic matter) and woody cover, measured as the leaf area index (LAI). This relationship, applied in palaeosequences, enables reconstruction of past savanna tree cover. Location: The samples are f...
