  • Why Do Birds Matter to Us
    Natural Resources Conservation and Research (2018) Volume 1 doi:10.24294/nrcr.v1i3.421 Why do Birds Matter to Us - A Perspective from Kashmir Valley, India in Light of Declaration of 2018 as the Year of Birds? Khurshid Ahmad Tariq Department of Zoology, Islamia College of Science and Commerce, Srinagar-190002, Kashmir, India. [email protected] ABSTRACT The year 2018 has been declared as the Year of Birds with the aim of celebrating and protecting them. Birds are mysterious, cheerful and a marvellous creation with some unique and peculiar features. They are ecologically crucial in maintaining the balance of many ecosystems by sustaining various food chains and energy cycles. With their colourful bright plumage they enrich the natural scenic beauty of earth. Their migration, foraging, singing, breeding and nesting behaviour is quite astonishing. Birds make a variety of calls, sounds and songs with a language as complex as any spoken words that have many meanings, purposes and uses. Birds are the indicators of climatic conditions, natural calamities and bio-indicators of potential human impact and environmental degradation. Birds are facing continuous natural and anthropogenic threats due to multiple problems in the environment. The unregulated and unsustainable tourism and poaching threatens the habitat of so many game birds. Climate change, chemical use, loss of food source, overharvesting are the other impacts on bird loss. Awareness about stopping of habitat destruction, indiscriminate poaching of birds, and regulated bird watching is the need of the time. We need to use more resources and put more sincere efforts for their management and conservation in view of the changing environment.

  • Carbon and Nitrogen Storage in Hokersar Wetland (A Ramsar Site): Potential for Carbon Sequestration
    CARBON AND NITROGEN STORAGE IN HOKERSAR WETLAND (A RAMSAR SITE): POTENTIAL FOR CARBON SEQUESTRATION Afreen J Lolu1,*, Amrik S Ahluwalia1, Malkiat C Sidhu1, Zafar A Reshi2 1Department of Botany, Panjab University, Chandigarh, 160014 2Department of Botany, University of Kashmir, Srinagar, J&K, 190006 *Corresponding author: Afreen J Lolu; ABSTRACT Wetlands are the largest nutrient sinks of carbon and nitrogen as they store them in their sediments and also take up into their plant biomass. The overall goal of our study was to quantify C and N storage of Hokersar wetland ecosystem, and to highlight its carbon sequestration potential. Samples of plants and soils were collected in 2016 and 2017, respectively. Plant biomass and its allocation pattern to the aboveground (AG) and belowground (BG) components were studied. We found that the sediment storage of organic carbon (OC) and total nitrogen (TN) of the wetland was of the order of 78.2 Mg C ha-1 and 6.9 Mg N ha-1 respectively. However, plant biomass represented smaller but sizeable pool when compared with the sediment pool with the figures of OC and TN for AGB of 16.26 Mg C ha-1 and 0.93 Mg N ha-1 and for BGB, the figures were 12.85 Mg C ha-1 and 0.63 Mg N ha-1 respectively. The wetland ecosystem however, represented a total OC pool of 107.31 Mg C ha-1 and TN pool of 8.46 Mg C ha-1 suggesting its higher potential of sequestering carbon and nitrogen and its sink capacity which can be enhanced in future, if its ecological nature is maintained keeping in view the huge anthropogenic pressure on the wetland.

Acknowledgement Lakes and Water bodies are one of the most important natural resources of our State. Apart from being most valuable natural habitat for number of flora and fauna, these lakes and Water bodies are the life line for number of communities of our state. No systematic scientific study for monitoring and planning of these lakes and water bodies was carried out and more than 90%of our lakes and water bodies are till date neglected altogether. The department realized the need of creating the first hand information long back in 1998 and prepared the Directory of lakes and water bodies using Survey of India Topographical Maps on 1:50,000.With the advent of satellite technology the study of these lakes and water bodies has become easier and the task of creating of information pertaining to these lakes and water bodies using latest high resolution data along with Survey of India Topographical Maps and other secondary information available with limited field checks/ground truthing has been carried out to provide latest information regarding the status of these lakes and water bodies.

  • Impact of Anthropogenic Activity and Land Use Pattern on the Ecology of Chatlam Wetland Kashmir Himalaya
    IMPACT OF ANTHROPOGENIC ACTIVITY AND LAND USE PATTERN ON THE ECOLOGY OF CHATLAM WETLAND KASHMIR HIMALAYA S.Y. Parray1 ,S.M. Zuber2,Sameera siraj3 1Department of Botany, G.D.C. Womens Anantnag (India) 2Department of Zoology, G.D.C. Bijbehara(India) 3Department of Zoology Womens College Srinigar(India) ABSTRACT The anthropogenic intervention and land use pattern in the catchment area of suburban wetland Chatlam in Kashmir Himalayan valley has been evaluated together with its impact on the ecology of the ecosystem. The catchment area of the wetland houses 12 hamlets inhabited by about 4000 families in the catchment with human population of 33000 and cattle head count of 11800 which variously affects the ecology and general health of the lentic ecosystem. The assessment of land use practice in the catchment indicates 1330 ha under various agri-horticultural activities involving annual use of 263 metric tons of fertilizers and 1.73 metric tons of pesticides. Saffron cultivation accounts for 79%, paddy 14% and the rest under willow/popular cultivation. The combined effect of intensive agricultural practices and horizontal expansion/urbanization together with unsustainable exploitation of wetland resources has drastically altered the environmental status of the wetland. Reduction in the wetland area from 44 to 39 ha with inherent potential of avifaunal habitat deterioration is a major environmental concern. The paper stresses on the need for proper catchment area treatment and ecological rehabilitation of the ecosystem. Keywords: Catchment, Land use, Anthropogenic intervention.Catchment, Wetland.
