Experts from the University of Seville have published a recent study in which they determine that the start of the increase in the verdure of vegetation (equivalent to the start of spring) in Africa is directly connected to the amount of hours of sunshine a day—that is to say, it would be the “photoperiod” which controls this process and not the arrival of the first rains, as was believed until now. This work has been published in Communications Biology, a new review from the Nature group.
