Litterfall in different forest types varied from 1.25 t/ha for Degraded sal forest to 6.97 t/ha for High altitude oak forest. Among plantations poplar plantation showed highest litter fall (7.24 t ha-1). Most of the forest types were observed with maximum litterfall during summer season. Temperate Conifer forest …

Vegetation Analysis in Kumaun Himalaya using Remote Sensing
Abstract: Vegetation and land use of Kumaun Himalaya was analyzed using remote sensing data. A total of 15 vegetation and land use classes were mapped, of which, eight vegetation types and seven land use categories were identified. Utilizing the knowledge of altitude bound distribution of vegetation digital elevation model (DEM) was used for the post-classification refinements. Forest spreads over 52% of total geographical area, while 48% of the total geographical area …
