When we think of restoration, we often think of planting trees. While adding trees might be useful for restoring (some) forests, restoring grasslands often need tree-removal. Encroaching trees on grasslands, like t #invasive Prosopis juliflora in India, are a restortn challng 2/n
Understanding how to best manage encroaching woody plants in biodiverse #tropical grasslands is critical for sustaining biodiversity and people. 3/n

1/8 Our paper in a #nutshell 🌰The prevailing view is that dryland areas like the Sahara or Sahel are largely free of trees and shrubs 🌴🌳. However, we find that’s not the case!😯🤓🤖the relatively high density of isolated trees challenges prevailing narratives #desertification
2/8 Although the overall canopy cover is low, the relatively high density of isolated trees challenges prevailing narratives about dryland desertification (see photo below) 🌴👉
