Prioritisation of conservation areas in the Western Ghats, India
Areas of high conservation value were identified in the Western Ghats using a systematic conservation planning approach. Surrogates were chosen and assessed for effectiveness on the basis of spatial congruence using Pearson’s correlations and Mantel’s tests. The surrogates were, threatened and endemic plant and vertebrate species, unfragmented forest areas, dry forests, sub-regionally rare vege...
متن کاملDistribution of radionuclide in the forest soils (Western Ghats-India)
Background: The presence of radionuclides in the soil, measures need to be taken to minimize the radiation dose to humans. It is mostly gamma-emitting radionuclides that contribute to the radiation dose in long term behavior of these radionuclides in soil may determine the extent to which such countermeasures need to be applied. Materials and Methods: The activity concentration of these radionu...

متن کاملLocal endemism within the Western Ghats-sri Lanka biodiversity hotspot.
The apparent biotic affinities between the mainland and the island in the Western Ghats-Sri Lanka biodiversity hotspot have been interpreted as the result of frequent migrations during recent periods of low sea level. We show, using molecular phylogenies of two invertebrate and four vertebrate groups, that biotic interchange between these areas has been much more limited than hitherto assumed. ...
متن کاملAmomum nilgiricum (Zingiberaceae), a new species from Western Ghats, India
A new species of Amomum Roxb. from Western Ghats of Kerala is illustrated and described.
