Homestead agroforestry, in the form of homegardens, has a long tradition many developing countries. These systems are an intimate mix diversified agricultural crops and multipurpose trees planted, maintained by members household. This paper aims to explore species composition commonly found homestead agroforestry Ganges valley northern Bangladesh their contribution local livelihoods. Three villages i.e., 'Capasia', 'Chak Capasia' 'Baduria' were selected as primary study area. Data collected...
This paper offers an economic evaluation of the floating garden as a means adapting to climate change in Bangladesh. The study showed that monthly income some farmers using such gardens increased from US$12.02 US$48.08. These folk lacked alternative work especially during monsoon period. uses available natural resources, adjusts wet conditions and helps flood-prone people earn living, can be adaptive response frequent disaster events
This study explores the climate change adaptation strategies for agro crop production and assesses financial suitability through indigenous knowledge in flood prone areas of Bangladesh. However, this purpose two types experiments have conducted with selected eight species. Firstly, seven treatments been experimented a Tub (an earthen pot). In case, Tomato (Lycoperscion esculeatum) is more beneficial among these average benefit-cost ratio treatment was 3.54. Thereafter, also experimenting...
Abstract Seedling size-related functional attributes of Mediterranean forest species are critical traits to be considered in nursery practices aimed at improving the survival and performance seedlings exposed summer drought dryland reforestation projects. We looked how light regimes nitrogen fertilization affected Pinus pinaster Ait. under contrasting post-planting watering regimes. Seedlings grown for 13 months were given low or high doses three (full sun, medium light). After outplanting,...
Density-dependent mortality occurs in the evolution of even-aged populations when these approach crown closure age. This density-dependent is regulated by so-called “3/2 power law self-thinning” that assumes a constant slope for line relating log stand density with average tree size, self-thinning or maximum size–density relationship, MSDR. A good estimate therefore an essential component to any forest growth model. Two concepts MSDR have emerged: (1) static upper limit species; and (2)...
The study highlights the significance of forestry industry in Portugal, and delves into economic, social, environmental ramifications forest fires on this vital sector. With a specialization services, country's healthy sustained growth is heavily reliant literature review analysis carbon sink-source relationships related uncertainty Portuguese ecosystem. We found wide research that Portugal lost 4% its total tree cover due to 2016-2017. concludes drought suffered by country throughout years...
Abstract We investigated the effect of tree cover, forest patch and disturbances on species richness in a highly diverse conservation area northeast Bangladesh. A systematic sampling protocol was adopted 80 sub-plots from twenty five 1 ha plots were used for vegetation survey. Linear regression analysis performed to understand area, cover richness. Ordination using Redundancy (RDA) Non-metric Multi Dimensional Scaling (NMDS) also explore compositional similarities along stand characteristics...
The quantitative analysis of plant diversity was explored on a seasonal tropical wetland forest ecosystem at Ratargul Swamp Forest. simple random sampling protocol adopted, and 30 plots (10 m×10 m) each with one subplot (2 m×2 investigated for the vegetation survey. study found about 539 individuals 48 species belonging to 36 families. Poaceae dominant among all family. upper (trees size) lower (shrubs, herbs, climbers, grasses) stratum dominated by Pongamia pinnata Clinogyne dicotoma,...
