Abstract
To most people, the term ‘savanna’ conjures up images of wide expanses of open grasslands, dotted with a few flat crowned trees, and grazed by large herds of roving ungulates (Huntley,1982). Whilst these images, characteristic of nutrient-rich East African savannas, remain amongst the most enduring in the public consciousness, they fail to capture the diversity of physical, structural, and functional attributes that characterize the different savannas of the world.
