The Sand Forest vegetation is the most valuable vegetation type in this region due to the endemics it harbours, but it is currently under threat from growing animal population densities within conserved areas and from a growing human population outside.
Combined geochemical and palynological data indicated relationships between vegetation type, sediment texture and its elemental composition.
Also it reveals vegetation of same type in areas with different conditions.
Species composition in semi-open, disturbed vegetation is similar to that found in the undisturbed forest canopy.
The vegetation type and complex levels correspond well to existing fynbos-wide classifications.
Some influence of changes in local land vegetation is also evident.
The vegetation at these sites is representative for large areas with low vegetation in the world.
A clear pattern of changes in vegetation and climate is suggested.
However, vegetation type influenced invertebrate communities and explained some of the differences between pasture types.
Vegetation physiognomy can be used to identify ‘biome‐type’ belts that are useful for comparisons across geographical areas with different floras.
In addressing tropical vegetation transitions it is clearly important to distinguish between native species-diverse ecosystems and novel derived vegetation of similar structure.
I find that hidden urbanization in Bihar mainly occurs around rapidly growing secondary cities that have spilled over into surrounding villages.
Vegetation structure is associated to geomorphologic heterogeneity.

This vegetation type map is the most comprehensive one developed for India so far.
Our results emphasise the significance of using vegetation indices and textures for vegetation type classification in the Western Ghats.
The comparison across the districts reflects that strong biophysical as well as social factors dominate and determine the varying degrees of vulnerability among the districts of Bihar.
Our results showed that significant vegetation type and growth changes have occurred in the study area.
