Book excerpt: FLORISTIC BIODIVERSITY IN MEGHALAYA: AN INDO-BURMA HOTSPOT AREA OF INDIASangeeta GuptaBotany Division, Forest Research Institute, Dehradun-248006, [email protected], meaning the abode of clouds is one of the states of India that falls under the Indo-Burma hotspot. The total forest area of the State is 15584 sq km which is about 69% of the geographical area of the state. However, only 1027.20 sq km is under the control of State Forest Department, which constitutes only 4.58 % of the total geographical area of the State and 6.56 % of the total forest area of the State. Rest of the area is community owned and is under control and management of the Autonomous District Councils. About 5.06 % of the Stateu2019s Geographical Area is covered by the protected area network in Meghalaya that includes 2 national Parks, 4 wildlife Sanctuaries and 1 Biosphere Reserve, playing an important role in in-situ conservation of Biodiversity. There are 79 sacred forests covering approximately 90 sq km. For a state of 22,429 sq km it may appear that Meghalaya flora is well protected but looking at the extent of floristic diversity still more needs to be done.A study was carried out to estimate the floristic biodiversity of Meghalaya and the results showed an estimated figure of about 60-80% flora being different at an interval of every 30 km distance. Comparison of floristic of three areas viz. Jowai (altitude 100-1800 m), Nongpoh (160-1300 m) and Balphakram (50-1026 m) were made. The presentation shall focus upon further areas that need to be covered under protected area network based on the floral diversity.

Download or read book Patterns and Processes in Forest Landscapes written by Raffaele Lafortezza and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-08-30 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Increasing evidence suggests that the composition and spatial configuration – the pattern – of forest landscapes affect many ecological processes, including the movement and persistence of particular species, the susceptibility and spread of disturbances such as fires or pest outbreaks, and the redistribution of matter and nutrients. Understanding these issues is key to the successful management of complex, multifunctional forest landscapes, and landscape ecology, based on a foundation of island bio-geography and meta-population dynamic theories, provides the rationale to deal with this pattern-to-process interaction at different spatial and temporal scales. This carefully edited volume represents a stimulating addition to the international literature on landscape ecology and resource management. It provides key insights into some of the applicable landscape ecological theories that underlie forest management, with a specific focus on how forest management can benefit from landscape ecology, and how landscape ecology can be advanced by tackling challenging problems in forest (landscape) management. It also presents a series of case studies from Europe, Asia, North America, Africa and Australia exploring the issues of disturbance, diversity, management, and scale, and with a specific focus on how human intervention affects forest landscapes and, in turn, how landscapes influence humans and their culture. An important reference for advanced students and researchers in landscape ecology, conservation biology, forest ecology, natural resource management and ecology across multiple scales, the book will also appeal to researchers and practitioners in reserve design, ecological restoration, forest management, landscape planning and landscape architecture.

Book excerpt: Edited by the Bombay Natural History Society, this book is the result of five years' exhaustive work by the BNHS. The data, which form the core of the book, have been collected by more than 1,000 people: many hundreds of professiona and amateur ornithologists, birdwatchers, conservationists, forest officials, and others interested in birds. It is the most detailed publication ever produced on the subject of birds or conservation and it uncovers, analyzes and assesses all of the evidence, presenting it together with all the sources. The study has given a detailed analysis of sites that have been identified for bird conservation in India on the basis of globally accepted criteria. Each bird area is introduced with maps, analysis, avifauna section with tables of threatened species present, and a brief description of threatened birds, which have important habitats in the relevant states. The study shows that out of 465 important birds in India, 191 wildlife sanctuaries have been idenfitied as IBAs, 52 are national parks, 23 are tiger reserves, while 198 are not officially protected.
