    Understanding REPORT of the WESTERNGHATS ECOLOGY EXPERT PANEL

    Understanding REPORT OF THE WESTERNGHATS ECOLOGY EXPERT PANEL KERALA PERSPECTIVE KERALA STATE BIODIVERSITY BOARD Preface The Western Ghats Ecology Expert Panel report and subsequent heritage tag accorded by UNESCO has brought cheers to environmental NGOs and local communities while creating apprehensions among some others. The Kerala State Biodiversity Board has taken an initiative to translate the report to a Kerala perspective so that the stakeholders are rightly informed. We need to realise that the whole ecosystem from Agasthyamala in the South to Parambikulam in the North along the Western Ghats in Kerala needs to be protected. The Western Ghats is a continuous entity and therefore all the 6 states should adopt a holistic approach to its preservation. The attempt by KSBB is in that direction so that the people of Kerala along with the political decision makers are sensitized to the need of Western Ghats protection for the survival of themselves. The Kerala-centric report now available in the website of KSBB is expected to evolve consensus of people from all walks of life towards environmental conservation and Green planning. Dr. Oommen V. Oommen (Chairman, KSBB) EDITORIAL Western Ghats is considered to be one of the eight hottest hot spots of biodiversity in the World and an ecologically sensitive area. The vegetation has reached its highest diversity towards the southern tip in Kerala with its high statured, rich tropical rain fores ts. But several factors have led to the disturbance of this delicate ecosystem and this has necessitated conservation of the Ghats and sustainable use of its resources. With this objective Western Ghats Ecology Expert Panel was constituted by the Ministry of Environment and Forests (MoEF) comprising of 14 members and chaired by Prof.

Suruli falls forest of southern Western Ghats. Two one-hectare plots were established (2018). Assessment of tree and all trees >10cm DBH measured. Species richness, density, family importance value diversity in distinctive de- (FIV) and importance value index (IVI) were calculated and the results varied among the ciduous forests of Suruli two sites. A total of 777 stems and 52 species were documented in both the sites and falls, Southern Western moist deciduous forest (MDF) had maximum number species richness and density than Ghats. Journal of Applied dry deciduous forest (DDF). The basal area was higher in MDF (502 stems/ha and 16.52 and Natural Science, 10 m2/ha) than in DDF (275 stems/ha and 7.23 m2/ha). However, Shannon and evenness (4): 1085 -1093 indices showed a negative trend (DDF- 2.62, 0.41 and MDF- 2.37, 0.27). Diameter class- wise distribution of trees showed reverse ‘J shaped’ curve in both the forest types.
