In India, the stability of the forest savanna boundary (ecotone) has been questioned. To investigate the possibility of vegetation change at this boundary, we used the natural difference in the stable carbon isotope ratio (C/C, expressed as ฮดC) of C (forest) and C (savanna) plants, which is preserve
