Fuel and fire characteristics in savanna–woodland of West Africa in relation to grazing and dominant grass type
Fuel characteristics, fire behaviour and temperature were studied in relation to grazing, dominant grass type and wind direction in West African savanna–woodland by lighting 32 prescribed early fires. Grazing significantly reduced the vegetation height, total fuel load, and dead and live fuel fracti...
