was historically known as, is one of the most picturesque states in South India. One of the top destinations for monsoon getaways, Wayanad, is a district in the northeastern region of Kerala. Located at the southern tip of the Deccan Plateau, Wayanad is blessed with nature and a mega rich historical and cultural history. With archaeological evidences of the Wayanad forests been inhabited for more than
the conversion of areas with continuous forests to areas with remnants of patches in a matrix of non forest vegetation. Consequently, fragments size, degree of diversity and time directly influences the density of birds in fragments and across the landscape as a whole. Some species will always be exterminated because by chance their habitats within the landscape will all be destroyed. Species distribution patterns are usually patchy in the tropical rain-forest landscape and this increases the likelihood
Although there many are attributes directly associated with Orang Asli and and their wise use of natural resources, we focused specifically on three major attributes, namely documentation of medicinal plants and knowledge of their use, traditional forest-related knowledge and conservation of natural resources. These attributes were broadly based on the ecosystem services identified in line with local and international policies, including the National Policy on Biological Diversity and CBD. The indigenous
“Humanity is cutting down its forests, apparently oblivious to the fact that we may not be able to live without them” (Explore 100 Famous).Animals die each day due to Deforestation around the globe, 11 species have already gone extinct due to it. Indigenous people are being driven out of their villages and made homeless. These cases are preventable, but the negligence
It was declared an Environmentally Sensitive Area in 2004. The Matura National Park is a great area of primary tropical forest. There exist no present immediate invasive threats from human development or agricultural activities. Research shows that the area has important biodiversity values as there are over 200 species of trees and lianas recorded in the Matura National
They live in a variety of places. They make their homes in areas such as forests, deserts, grasslands, and coastal bush forests. Most burrow into the the soil of semi-desert sands, dry grasses, or shrubs, ( Short-eared Elephant Shrews, 2015). Elephant Shrews are insectivores. Their noses sniff out food on the paths and trail ways they made. Their
The Interlopers. In this story, a man named Ulrich von Gradwitz owned a large amount of forested land, but his neighbor, Georg Znaeym, was jealous of his neighbor’s land and so he hunted on it without permission. It all starts in the middle of the forest with Ulrich
subtropical dry forest are the type of biomes in Sudan. Among the ones mentioned above, the blue nile basin are mostly surrounded by grass savanna. The main ecosystems in Ethiopia are categorized into 10 different ecosystems. There are Afroalpine and Subafroalpine Ecosystem, Montane Grassland Ecosystem, Dry Evergreen Mountain Forest and Evergreen Scrub Ecosystem, Montane Moist Forest Ecosystem, Acacia-Commiphora Woodland Ecosystem, Combretum-Terminalia Ecosystem, Lowland Tropical Forest Ecosystem, Desert
Introduction In every model of economics there must be the good and bad outcomes because there are no perfect models in the economic system. In this case we will talk about the Multi centric organizational model. Multi-centric organizational model is a model that developed by David Ricardo (1772-1823), in this model he focused more on distribution, whereas Adam Smith more focused on the production side on the market model. In this model there are premises like in the market model also, the premises
Deforestation Introduction Deforestation is commonly defined as the permanent destruction, clearance, and removal of forests to make the land able to be converted for other purposes. Forests play a big role to maintain the land ecosystem as it has a vast coverage at around 31% of the land area on planet Earth. Forests around the world, no matter any type, are rich with biodiversity. Some of the greatest concentrations of species are found in the tropics. However, tropical rainforests are being cleared
