Factors influencing local ecological knowledge of forage resources: Ethnobotanical Evidence from West Africa's savannas

Recording local ecological knowledge (LEK) is a useful approach to understanding interactions of the complex social-ecological systems. In spite of the recent growing interest in LEK studies on the effects of climate and land use changes,...

Towards an understanding and harnessing of local ecological knowledge of forage resources for sustainable rangeland management in West Africa’s Sudanian Savannas - Dissertation 2017

Farming

Despite the fact that dryland savanna ecosystems provide a host of essential ecosystem goods and services to both humans and livestock, they are often confronted with dangerously vacillating levels of locally available natural resources to...

Local valuation criteria for available forage resources from the perspective of local agro-pastoralists in northern Ghana and southern-central Burkina Faso, 2012-2013

Farming

This table contains relevant socio-demographic variables of local agro-pastoralists(and including varying climatic aridity)and number of valuation criteria cited from 2012 to 2013. The number of valuation criteria for the rainy season, dry season...

The soil properties of the Dano Catchment for Modelling, Burkina Faso, 2016

Soil

Soil properties in the present excel files concern field and laboratory analysis data of the Dano catchment. Data are related to carbon content, nitrogen content, CEC,sand, silt and clay content.

Daily Observed Gridded Precipitation for Burkina Faso, Ghana, Benin and Togo from 1970 to 2009 in 0.1° x 0.1° Resolution

Climate

This gridded precipitation set is a test data set (BETA VERSION). The daily precipitation data set was created using a spatial interpolation technique using ordinary kriging. The gridded data set is based on 410 daily observed precipitation time...
