Thus, the establishment of artificial vegetation (Rubber plantation) not only led to the decrease in natural vegetation (3641.16 km(2)) but also covered 343.66 km(2) of lands for other uses. | |
The significant greening trends covered up to 30% of cultivated land, thus indicating that cultivated vegetation may be increasing faster than natural vegetation. | |
The relative effects of the natural and human factors on vegetation productivity varied with spatial scale. | |
From an observational and practical point of view, the natural resource has been declining rapidly in India. | |
The present study shows the application of vegetation and temperature condition indices for drought monitoring in India. | |
24 Citations | The results also show that the rate at which cropland/secondary vegetation is increasing is above average while sandbar is increasing below average. |
60 Citations | The contribution of LULC changes towards cooling over India during 1981–2006 is due to the reduction of area under shrubs/ small vegetation and subsequent increase of the area under agricultural/ fallow land. |
368 Citations | The results, presented at eco-region level and aggregated at sub-Saharan level, show a 57% increase in agriculture area at the expense of natural vegetation which has itself decreased by 21% over the period, with nearly 5 million hectares forest and non-forest natural vegetation lost per year. |
52 Citations | The results show that the vegetation has been highly dynamic in response to both anthropogenic and 'natural' disturbance, and to the immigration of Picea. |
This vegetation type map is the most comprehensive one developed for India so far. | |
Simulated AOT40 values are found to be substantially higher throughout the year over the most fertile Indo-Gangetic plains than the other regions of India, which can have an adverse effect on plants and vegetation in this region. | |
46 Citations | These results highlight the climatic controls of vegetation vigor in evergreen forests and have implications for monitoring bio-spheric activity, developing prognostic phenology models and deriving land cover maps in the Western Ghats region of India. |
Therefore, we strongly recommend further studies about karst-land vegetation in India. | |
The predicted vegetation anomalies compare well with observations, which can be effectively utilized in early warning and better planning in water resources and agricultural sectors in India. |
