AU Jamnadass, R.H. AB This book represents Volume 4 in a seven-volume series that documents the potential natural vegetation map that was developed by the VECEA (Vegetation and Climate change in East Africa) project. The VECEA map was developed as a collaborative effort that included partners from each of the seven VECEA countries (Ethiopia Kenya Malawi Rwanda Tanzania Uganda and Zambia). • In Volume 1 we present the potential natural vegetation map that we developed for seven countries in eastern Africa. In Volume 1 we also introduce the concept of potential natural vegetation and give an overview of different application domains of the VECEA map. • Volumes 2 to 5 describe potential natural vegetation types also in - cluding lists of the “useful tree species” that are expected to natural - ly occur in each vegetation type – and therefore also expected to be adapted to the environmental conditions where the vegetation types are depicted to occur on the map. Volume 2 focuses on forest and scrub forest vegetation types. Volume 3 focuses on woodland and wooded grassland vegetation types. Volume 4 focuses on bushland and thicket vegetation types. In Volume 5 information is given for vegetation types that did not feature in Volumes 2 to 4. • Volume 6 gives details about the process that we followed in mak - ing the VECEA map. • Volume 7 shows the results of modelling the distribution of poten - tial natural vegetation types for six potential future climates.
