 Abstract:             Palaeoecology of Africa, volume 31 presents two compressed English versions of the PhD thesis by J. Eisenberg and M. Sangen, produced in the framework of the German Research Foundation,s funded \"Rain Forest Savanna Contact\" project that has been carried out between 2004 and 2009 in Southern Cameroon (Central Africa). A complementary introductory, as well as summing up articles by two Cameroonian colleagues (B. Kankeu, M. Tchindjang) complete the results of this joint German-Cameroon research project. This book will be of interest to all concerned with ecosystems dynamics, tropical fo
