description:Abstract;Quantification of seasonal dynamics of herbaceous vegetation and tree foliage on sites for which the long term dynamics is also monitored (see CL.VegHerb_G). The main objectives are to analyze the different processes that control primary production and degradation of vegetation and to test models (e.g, STEP).
description:SeriesInformation;Aboveground herbaceous mass, vegetation cover fraction, LAI is monitored in sites located within the Hombori super-site and representatives of the 3 main components of the landscape: sand dunes (Agoufou, Hombori-Ondo, Tara and Timbadior), erosion surface seasonally inundated clay soils (Kelma) and millet (Bilantao). For mass estimation, the herbaceous layer is monitored using a stratified random technique. Measurements are performed at least every month during the rainy season, from June to mid-October and twice during the dry season. LAI is estimated using hemispherical photographs. For the Kelma forest, hemispherical photographs are also used to derive the Plant Area Index (PAI).

description:Abstract;Long term measurements (LOP) of the river discharge to documentate the surface water balance of 6 nested catchments (12 to 586 km2). The electrical conductivity of river water is an integrative measure that allows documentation of the origin of waters (rainfall, surface and sub-surface runoff, water table drainage). Associated to the chemical characterization of water (CE.Wchem_Od), these data give insight into processes of runoff generation, allow to compute water balance components and constitute validation datasets for hydrological models.

description:Abstract;Documentation of rainfall in the soudanian zone. The aim is to characterize the temporal and spatial variability of rainfall down to the local scale, in some sub-areas of the Oueme basin where process studies are carried on. Data is used in modelling and process studies.
description:SeriesInformation;Rainfall measurements collected since 1999 by recording raingauges to complement and densify the Oueme (CL.Rain_O) network, in particular over the Donga basin. NB: Negative values are missing values. Negative value other than -9999.9 is missing value estimated from the bucket. For a period with such missing data, although the same value is indicated for each timestep, the value applies to the whole time period.

Allow to relate runoff fluctuation to rainfall variability.  The electrical conductivity of river water is an integrative measure that allows documentation of the origin of waters (rainfall, surface and sub-surface runoff, watertable drainage). Associated to the chemical characterization of water (CE.Wchem_O), these data give insight into process of runoff generation, allow to compute water balance components and constitute validation datasets for hydrological models.
