Opis

Biodiversity has attracted the attention of people in general and scientist community in particular because of increasing awareness of its importance on the one hand and the anticipated massive reduction on the other hand. Thus, in today s context of population explosion coupled with pollution, environmental degradation and climate change, the main concern is protection and production of bio-resources world-wide.The Earth Summit of 1992 particularly laid stress on the integration, conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity.The prerequisite for this is to identify and quantify the biodiversity. The present volume deals with the cause, consequence and pattern of phyto-diversity of a sub-humid tropical forest ecosystem in foot hills of Indian Eastern Himalayas along with a comprehensive review of works related to above topic.The present volume is a doctoral work of the first author Gopal Shukla submitted to Uttar Banga Krishi Viswavidyalaya(UBKV),Cooch Behar West Bengal (India)under the guidance of the second author Dr Sumit Chakravarty Assistant Professor, Department of Forestry, UBKV Cooch Behar.Presently Dr Shukla working as Research Associate at ICAR Research centre Ranchi.
