Floristic composition of an alpine grassland in Bandipora, Kashmir

Grassland Science, 2010
AbstractFloristic composition of a high‐altitude alpine grassland, located in Bandipora district of Indian administered Jammu and Kashmir, was investigated. The grassland comprises three broad zones (a) flat valley with only few habitat types, (b) lower slope, and (c) upper slope with diverse habitat types (numerous rock boulders, rock crevices and ...

Machine learning in soil nutrient dynamics of alpine grasslands

Science of The Total Environment
As a terrestrial ecosystem, alpine grasslands feature diverse vegetation types and play key roles in regulating water resources and carbon storage, thus shaping global climate. The dynamics of soil nutrients in this ecosystem, responding to regional climate change, directly impact primary productivity.

Quantitative ecological relationships in the alpine grassland of Lesotho

Proceedings of the Annual Congresses of the Grassland Society of Southern Africa, 1974
A survey, based on 56 000 points at 102 sampling sites in the Tsehlanyane valley of the Oxbow (Madibamatso) Dam catchment in the alpine grassland of Lesotho, indicates that the area is generally in good condition. Physiographic and floristic criteria were measured and the association between pairs of criteria statistically tested. The simple (126 spp.)

Analysing the potential of multispectral sensors to map vegetation parameters in pre-Alpine and Alpine grasslands

2018
Pastures and natural grasslands are an important part of the pre-Alpine and Alpine landscape ranging from intensive grasslands in the lower regions to highly diverse seasonal mountain pastures and specialized natural ecosystems. Despite the economic value and the significant role of plants in grassland carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) cycling, spatially ...

Grazing pressures of grasshoppers in an alpine tussock grassland

New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, 1974
Abstract Behavioural and environmental criteria were used to assess consumption and grazing pressures of a community of three grasshopper species in alpine tussock grassland in the Craigieburn Range, Canterbury, New Zealand. The total consumption of each species and sex was calculated for different age classes (instars) by relating ...

Ecological applications of imaging spectroscopy in alpine grasslands

2015
Ecosystem ecology investigates the processes driving ecosystems, the services ecosystems provide and how these processes and services are linked to the organism community. However, due to the complexity of ecosystems and an inherent multitude of interactions, the links between ecosystem processes and services and the organism community are only partly ...
