Forest Degradation and Management - An Indian Perspective provides an overview of the dynamics and challenges surrounding forest degradation in India. It reveals the harmful impacts of human activity on natural resources, ecosystems, and communities, and emphasizes the urgent need for sustainable forest management practices.
The book is divided into four parts, each offering a different perspective on forest degradation. Part I presents an overview of forest degradation in India, including a comparative analysis of assessment tools. Part II explores the ecological impacts of forest degradation on ecosystems. Part III is dedicated to societal aspects, examining the consequences of human activity such as cultivation, eco-tourism, resource utilization, and deforestation, while also analyzing the impact of forest degradation on forest-dependent communities. Part IV focuses on mitigation strategies, highlighting the role of protected areas, governance, policies, and participatory approaches.
This volume within the book series Forestry Sciences is an invaluable resource for students, researchers, policymakers, and conservationists seeking to tackle the complex challenges of forest degradation. It provides knowledge and practical insights to inform decision-making processes, guide sustainable forest management strategies, and promote responsible land use practices.
