For Oak Savanna we have a term and definition in Landscape.

The transitional community between prairie and forest, sustained by fires and characterized by scattered, open-grown oak and hickory trees and grasses and forbs which flourish in partly shady conditions. These savannas were often called "oak openings" by the pioneers. Definitions of density of trees vary widely, from a few scattered trees to an almost closed canopy.
