Significant reductions in above-ground biomass and vegetation height were only produced by repeated burning.
The vegetation height positively affected invertebrate abundance and biomass, and negatively the number of foraging birds.
This mosaic is therefore classified in distinct physiognomy classes based on their respective vegetation height and tree cover [46].
Mean vegetation height was greatest at the savanna edge and lowest in the centre of the plantation.
The DSM that was acquired in May 2016 included vegetation height, but the landslide scars had no vegetation.
Also, the application of interferometric SAR (InSAR) is employed to improve retrievals of AGB through proxies of vegetation height [15].
The smaller vegetation height in the centre of the fragment may also indicate older colonisation at the edges.
A: number of species (i.e. species richness), B: Fisher's alpha diversity index, C: Shannon's H index, D: Pielou's evenness index, E: Phylogenetic diversity (PD), F: Phylogenetic diversity rate, G: total number of individuals, H: mean vegetation height, I: vegetation height standard deviation, J: vegetation height coefficient of variation.
We hypothesized that prescribed burning and grazing will interact, affecting both the above-ground biomass and vegetation height.
Within openings, overall abundance and diversity decreased with vegetation height and increased with a metric representing floral richness and abundance.
There was a tendency for bumblebees to respond less positively to flower abundance and vegetation height than butterflies and moths.
