Savannas and tropical grasslands
Year:
2009
Author:
Riccardo Pravettoni, UNEP/GRID-Arendal

Savannas cover large areas of Africa and South America and can store significant amounts
of carbon, especially in their soils. Activities such as cropping, heavy grazing and increased
frequency or intensity of fires can reduce carbon stored in these systems.
