▼a In Chapter 1, I take advantage of long-term woody plant diversity data from the KLEE plots to measure the combined and separate effects of wild and domestic large mammalian herbivores on woody forage diversity. After 16 years, the exclusion of a |

▼a In Chapter 2, I use a combination of satellite data and ground measurements to ask how large mammalian herbivores impact herbaceous productivity. While ungulate herbivores generally reduce standing biomass, their effects on aboveground net prima |

▼a Finally, in Chapter 3, I examine how two savanna keystone guilds, termites and large mammalian herbivores, interact through shared dietary resources. Both termites and large mammalian herbivores have profound impacts on savanna ecosystem structu |
