Description
Indian Forests-Soil, Water and Bio-environment Conservation-deals with the soil degradation in forests from a practising forester's viewpoint. Most past practices believed civil engineers' gravity structures as teh panacea for the problem. This book proceeds with a different premise-eart reinforcement through root systems of vegetation best protects soil and conserves water. Inelaborating this, its presents a simplified picture of Indian forest types and characteristics like soil formation, soil texture, soil organisms, etc. About Author : Dr. Sheelwant Patel belongs to the Indian Forest Service and is allotted to the West Bengal cadre. He has post-graduated in Chemistry. He has an extensive experience of over 25 years of working in forests of the fragile Darjeeling Himalayas. His doctoral dissertation from North Bengal University related to the study of soil erosin problems in catchements of river Balson-the eastern-most tributary of the Ganga drainage systems.
