Monsoonal climate and asymmetric heating facilitate the slope-aspect to influence landscape-scale tree structure in the Western Ghats, India by Devi Maheshwori, Shreyas Managave, Girish Jathar, Sham Davande

“…We thus demonstrate that even in low-latitude regions, the slope-aspect plays an important role in determining the TC and CH heterogeneity at landscape-scale if the relief is higher. The role of aspect in controlling vegetation structure at landscape-scale needs to be considered while formulating and executing programs aimed at increasing tree cover and conserving biodiversity, especially in the high relief areas in the tropics having seasonal rainfall, such as in the WG.…”
