The Useful Plants of Uganda
Accelerating anthropogenic pressures threaten over two in five plant species globally with extinction, with an estimated 21% of threatened species on the IUCN Red List holding socio-economic value, imperiling species vital for global health. Important Plant Areas (IPAs) is an area-based conservation tool that recognizes the importance of useful species for human well-being and livelihoods. This study aims to identify hotspots of useful plants in …
Adapting wild biodiversity conservation approaches to conserve agrobiodiversity
Enhancing knowledge among smallholders on pollinators and supporting field margins for sustainable food security
Forest clearance and regrowth in northern Ethiopia during the last 3000 years
Pollen and charcoal analysis of sediment cores from two lakes in the highlands of northern Ethiopia provide evidence that the vegetation has changed in response to human impact during the last 3000 years. The natural, pre-disturbance vegetation of the area was Podocarpus-Juniperus forest. At about 500 bc, following Semitic immigration to northern Ethiopia, the forests were cleared and replaced by a secondary vegetation of Dodonaea scrub and grass…
Vegetation response to rainfall variation and human impact in central Kenya during the past 1100 years
Pollen data from a 625 cm sediment core from Crescent Island Crater, a subbasin of Lake Naivasha, Kenya, provide an 1100-year record of vegetation change at a mean time resolution of 15 years. Earlier data from the same core show a record of lake depth (and thus inferred rainfall variation) in the form of changing sedimentary facies, supported by salinity inferences based on diatom and chironomid assemblages. Stratigraphic variation in the abunda…
