Solar Radiation Triggers the Bimodal Leaf Phenology of Central African Evergreen Broadleaved Forests

Abstract Central African evergreen broadleaved forests around the equator exhibit a double annual cycle for canopy phenology and carbon uptake seasonality. The underlying drivers of this behavior are poorly understood and the double seasonality is not captured by land surface models (LSM). In this s...
