The study focuses on the carbon pool analysis and various phytosociological parameters from biodiversity perspective. More emphasis has been given on the potential of urban and hill vegetation as a carbon sink. The phytosociological data was used to determine homogeneity/heterogeneity of the vegetation stand. The soil organic carbon was estimated as it is a significant carbon sink.It also includes carbon mitigation opportunities in land use sectors and will contribute in Carbon offset projects and mitigating Urban Island effects.The information will help policy decision makers to undertake...
