Hardcover. Condición: As New. 1st Edition. Contents: Acknowledgement. Introduction. Enumeration. Selected bibliography. "Uttar Pradesh, constituting 68 districts, is one of the largest state of India spread over an area of 294411 sq. km i.e. about 9% of the total area of the country. The state has a wide altitudinal variation ranging from 300m-7817m and accordingly the varied climate that accounts for a rich and diversified flora. Till date there is no consolidated account of the flora of this state. Working out the flora of such a large state is a challenging job. This can be achieved by bringing out checklists of larger families in the initial stages. One such attempt was the publication of "The grasses of Uttar Pradesh - A checklist" by B.P. Uniyal, Bipin Balodi & Baij Nath in 1994. The present work on Cyperaceae of Uttar Pradesh is another such attempt towards bringing out the flora of Uttar Pradesh." (jacket).

"Gir is one of the largest compact dry deciduous forest and the only abode of the Asiatic lion; in the world. Over the years, Gir has become a very stable ecosystem with tremendous regenerating,self supporting and self sustaining capacity. It supports a rich biodiversity comprising of about 500 recorded flowering plants species, 36 species of mammal, 35 species of reptiles, about 300 species of birds and more than 2000 species of insects. It also harbours a variety of endangered and threatened species and provides breeding ground for many migratory and resident birds. Gir ecosystem forms catchment of important rivers like Shetrunji, Hiran, Shingoda, Machhundri, Raval and Datardi. The dense forest cover over a large tract also exert significant moderating effect on the climate in the region. It also helps in reducing salinity on the southern coast of Saurashtra. Gir is thus, a boon to farmers, enriching the perpheral environs by ensuring sustained agricultural and horticultural production."No. 24479 187 pp.

Where lichens are to be found in park. 8. How to use the keys. 9. Key to the common lichens of Corbett Tiger reserve. 10. Species description. Glossary. In the last century a lot of research work regarding the Indian lichens has been done by the European and Indian lichenologist. However there is no single booklet or field guide of lichen is written for the amateur naturalist. Lichens are among the most widely distributed plant organism in the world. To date there are about 20 000 lichen species known in the world out of which Indian subcontinent is represented by 2 450 species. Few professional lichenologist only know about this unique creation of nature. Thus the present booklet is an experiment to popularize the lichens among wide audience of this country. A field guide can serve its purpose only if it is small. Therefore only 25 common lichen taxa of the park are included for making the guide handy and unexpensive. The colour illustrations are included since colour is an important feature in identification of lichens. The colour illustrations are enlarged enough to give a good idea of the different taxa. 41 pp.

Lichenological studies in India do not go beyond about five decades and no suitable hand-book has been pubslihed in India for the basic information on them. In this handbook I have tried to include all the different and upto date information in a concise manner giving examples of Indian lichens as far as possible." No. 18146.

One who works with forest must measure it. He may be a forester land owner forestry student researcher scientist contractor laborer sawyer owner of wood based industries trader involved in business of forest produces transporter of forest produce or forest owner. Knowledge of tree measurement is required during forest produce being felled converted sold purchased transported used or put for some research analysis. Because of this reason Forest Mensuration is one of the important forestry subject prescribed in the curriculum of forestry education and training for Indian Forest Services and State Forest Services probationers as well as for the basic training of frontline staff at the forest colleges/schools. It is also a component of forestry that is being offered as one of the subjects at various agricultural and forestry universities in India and abroad. It is observed that knowledge of mathematics is a prerequisite for Forest Mensuration however majority of forestry students have an aptitude for biological rather than mathematical sciences. This is one of the reasons why it is difficult for students to understand Forest Mensuration. This simple handy and practical book has been written keeping the above facts in mind. The book is an attempt by the author to help the students to understand the concept in a simple and understandable form. The book is based on the several years of teaching experience of the author at the State Forest Service College Dehradun. The book covers measurement of tree attributes like diameter girth height volume form tree crown biomass age bark and increment in detail. In addition the book covers various solved numericals based on practical problems to stimulate the independent thinking among the tree lover about this important branch of forestry. The portion on Mensuration exercises is an attempt to standardize the various exercises and to generate the added interest among the students to understand the subject. The book would have a great utility for all the field level officers who are engaged in preparation of inventory of the tree resources. The book would be a very useful reference material for the working plan offices timber depot various forestry training institutes universities where forestry is being taught and schools where environment study is one of the upcoming subject. 220 pp.

In India, it occurs naturally from the eastern parts of 'Rajasthan in the west to Kerala in the south and Tripura in the north central and eastern parts of the country. Teak has also been widely planted both within and outside its home range. "At present, vast areas are being brought under commercial teak plantations. However concise, readily readable information in the form of short books (on teak) is not available. The present publication, a part of the series on forest species of commercial importance aims to fill this gap. "It covers in brief all aspects of teak viz. its habit, phenology, distribution, silvicultural characters, regeneration, silviculture, management, uses growth yield and economics. The monumental revised work of Troup (Silviculture of Indian trees) has formed the basic source material for this publication.".

At the Crossroads (ATC) is a cracking good read for a book that deals with subjects that are normally as dry as dust. In this book Sanjeev Chopra an in service bureaucrat once again displays his flair for transforming flat arid topics dealing admittedly with critical issues in the contemporary context into racy Development thrillers crackling with wit and energy. The book is a good starting point for both the eclectic readers and the more serious students (of the development sector) wishing to hove up their knowledge on the various issues dealt with in this book. Sanjeev Chopra deals with widely disparate books in his book review section ranging from classics like David Luddens's The Agrarian History of South Asia to Former Cabinet Secretary TSR Subramanam's Governance in India. To make Ludden's The Agrarian History more accessible for the more faint hearted readers Chopra has actually taken the trouble to churn out a synoptic version of the book. Also an offer is a penetrating critique on leading communist thinker and commentator Mohit Sen's autobiography A Traveller and the Road which deals with interesting aspects of modern Indian history such as the Chinese Aggression the split in the CPI the emergence of Bangladesh and the emergency. Equally interesting in his double review Of Homes and Houses in Far Away Lands where he does a comprehensive study of two contemporary works of fiction Monica Ali's Bricklane and Jhumpa Lahiri's Namesake. In this review he analyses the attempt made by both writers to reflect the growing dichotomy of thought and action between two generations in far away lands starting from the generation that migrated from India in the sixties. The book is a tantalizing potpourri of all relevant contemporary issues and is a must read for all curious minds. 230 pp.

This study was made on the initiation of WS Aitkins UK which was the technical team behind the EEC funded watershed development project. The completion of the study led to some concrete recommendations which were found useful in future watershed developmental projects. These findings were discussed over the years with experts working in different areas of the world. The deliberations in different seminars workshops and visits to African and Asian countries led to the understanding that these findings must be published for greater benefit of the people working in watershed development. This resulted in the publication of findings in the form of present book. It is expected that these recommendations will be helpful for hill based community watershed developmental projects. This book will be of great use to the researchers agriculturists foresters policy planners and decision makers. 96 pp.

It is being felt that the natural stock of this important raw material is being exhausted due to over-exploitation from, the forest regions of the northwest Himalayas. There are apprehensions that this important raw material may be completely lost to the industry if adequate steps to conserve the stock are not taken up immediately. "Towards this direction the present work aims at an intimate study of the plant, its distribution pattern, ecological amplitude, habital diversity, the range of variation in rhizome characters together with mineral constituents and diosgenin content under different climatic, edaphic and phenological conditions. "The books is of immense value to the industry, Academicians and Researchers." (jacket).
