This article describes the evolution of the African rainforest over a 40 year span, seeing the

effects of the forest on climate change and how important of a driver it is towards it. The

researchers studied tree abundance, diversity, and structures that were first researched in 1978.

They then studied the evolution of life history strategies, and predicted how concerning a change

in the forest would be.
