Understating of forest functioning is crucial for ensuring the sustainable flow of forest
ecosystem services. Climate regulation service of a forest ecosystem can be ensured …

This study was carried out across eighteen forest stands dominated by Pinus roxburghii and
Quercus leucotrichophora forests to understand vegetation patterns and physico-chemical …

Carbon inventories are urgently needed for understanding climate dynamics and
implementing climate mitigation strategies, but such data is scarce in for forest ecosystem of …

Soils are the third biggest sink of carbon on the earth. Hence, suitable land uses for a
climatic condition are expected to sequester optimum atmospheric carbon in soils. But …

Carbon stock assessment in various ecosystems is vital for monitoring the health of these
ecosystems and national accounting for the United Nations convention on climate change …

The physiochemical properties of soils of two different types of forests (pure Shorea
robustaand mixed Shorea robusta) were analyzed. Soil samples were collected from both …

This study aimed to investigate the correlation of carbon and nitrogen in soil and leaves with
the altitude, vegetation type, herbaceous biomass (HB), litter mass (LM) and with each other …

Abstract Background The Himalayan zones, with dense forest vegetation, cover a fifth part of
India and store a third part of the country reserves of soil organic carbon (SOC). However …

The study focused on the impact of change in land-cover types on soil quality inferred by
measuring the relative changes in chemical and physical properties of non-disturbed and …
