  • Landslide Near Eravikulam National Park
    Landslide near Eravikulam National Park drishtiias.com/printpdf/landslide-near-eravikulam-national-park Why in News Recently, landslides have been reported at the Nayamakkad tea estate at Pettimudy which is located about 30 km from Munnar, adjacent to the Eravikulam National Park (ENP), Kerala. Key Points Features of ENP: It is located in the High Ranges (Kannan Devan Hills) of the Southern Western Ghats in the Devikulam Taluk of Idukki District, Kerala. It spreads over an area of 97 square km and hosts South India's highest peak, Anamudi (2695 m), in its southern area. The Rajamalai region of the park stays open to the public for tourism. History: The Government of Kerala acquired the area from the Kannan Devan Hills Produce Company under the Kannan Devan Hill Produce (Resumption of lands) Act 1971. It was declared as Eravikulam-Rajamala Wildlife Sanctuary in 1975 and was elevated to the status of a National Park in 1978. Topography: The main body of the park comprises a high rolling plateau (plateau at different elevation or with varying heights) with a base elevation of about 2000 m from mean sea level. Three major types of plant communities found in the park are: Grasslands, Shrub Land and Shola Forests (mosaic of montane evergreen forests and grasslands). The park represents the largest and least disturbed stretch of unique Montane Shola-Grassland vegetation in the Western Ghats. 1/4 Flora: It houses the special Neelakurinji flowers (Strobilanthes kunthianam) that bloom once every 12 years and the next sighting is expected to be in 2030. Apart from that, it has rare terrestrial and epiphytic orchids, wild balsams, etc.

  • Forest Statistics 2016
    Kerala Forest Department Forest Statistics 2016 Prepared by-Statistics wing, Forest headquarters,Thiruvananthapuram. Preface The State of Kerala is endowed with rich natural resources. Tropical climate with plenty of sunshine and rainfall favours forests with rich biodiversity and endemism. Western Ghats, one of the Biodiversity hotspots, is running all along the length of Kerala and forms its eastern boundary. Increasing population and changing lifestyles of the people is exerting great pressure on forests. The greatest challenge faced by present day foresters is to accommodate developmental needs without causing destruction of its rich forests. A manager has to base his decisions on the available data/ information on the subject. The broader and the accurate data base better will be the quality of decisions and efficiency of administration. Analysis of the past performance is a pre-requisite for developing future strategies of management. ‘Forest Statistics’ is one such effort made by Statistics Wing headed by Deputy Director (Statistics), to compile and provide vital statistical data much needed by the policy makers to formulate future policies. It is equally needed by various Scientific Institutions, Research Scholars and students of science in their endeavour. I hope this compilation of data base about the Kerala Forest Department will be of value for various segments of the society.
