It starts with genes and manifests itself as organisms, populations, species and communities, which give life to ecosystems, landscapes and ultimately the biosphere (Swaminathan, 1997). India in general and Himalayas in particular are the reservoir of genetic wealth ranging from tropical, sub-tropical, sub temperate including dry temperate and cold desert culminating into alpine (both dry and moist) flora and fauna.

The most sacred spots are, in fact, so powerful that their spiritual intensity is actually palpable and visitors get to feel the heightened energy there. In this post, we bring you a feature on some of the holiest lakes of India. Many of these lakes are associated with temples and interesting legends as well. Here is Part I of our article. We will continue with the feature in our next post. Narayan Sarovar Narayan Sarovar or Narayansar is a sacred land for Hindus and is situated on the Kori Creek. This lake is located in the Lakhpat Taluka of Kutch District, Gujarat. The ancient temple of Koteshwar, which lies just 4 kilometers ahead, is associated with this site. Narayan Sarovar is one of the 5 holy lakes of Hinduism, collectively referred to as the Panch- Sarovar. The others are Mansarovar in Tibet, Pampa in Karnataka, Bhuvaneshwar in Orissa and Pushkar in Rajasthan. According to legend, a long time ago, the Saraswati River had an outlet into the sea, near present-day Narayan Sarovar. The waters of this lake were filled with the holy waters of River Saraswati. This lake is mentioned in the Puranas. At one time, a drought hit the area and so, it was dry and arid all around. The people, animals and birds living there suffered and many died due to extreme dehydration.

    Biodiversity International Journal Research Article Open Access Water quality and phytoplankton diversity of high altitude wetland, Dodi Tal of Garhwal Himalaya, India Abstract Volume 2 Issue 6 - 2018 Water quality and phytoplankton diversity of high altitude (3,075 above m.a.s.l.) wetland Ramesh C Sharma, Sushma Singh Dodi Tal were monitored for a period of November 2015 to October 2016. A total of 47 species Department of Environmental Sciences, Hemvati Nandan belonging to 43 genera of four families (Bacillariophyceae; Chlorophyceae; Cyanophyceae; Bahughuna Garhwal University, India Dinophyceae) of phytoplankton were encounted during the study. Bacillariophyceae was the dominant family representing 20 genera followed by Chlorophyceae (16 genera), Correspondence: Sushma Singh, Department of Cyanophyceae (4 genera) and Dinophyceae (3 genera). A highly significant (F=14.59; Environmental Sciences, Hemvati Nandan Bahughuna Garhwal p=1.43E-08) seasonal variation in the abundance of phytoplankton community of Dodi University, (A Central University) Srinagar, Garhwal, 246174, Tal was recorded. Maximum abundance of phytoplankton (1,270±315.00ind.l-1) was Uttarakhand, India, Email [email protected] found in autumn season and minimum (433.00±75.00ind.l-1) in monsoon season. Multiple regression analysis made between density of phytoplankton and environmental variables Received: July 31, 2018 | Published: November 05, 2018 revealed that the abundance of phytoplankton has a negative correlation with TDS, alkalinity, dissolved oxygen, pH and Chlorides. However, it has a positive correlation with water temperature phosphates and nitrates. Shannon Wiener diversity index was recorded maximum (4.09) in autumn season and minimum (3.59) in monsoon season. Canonical Correspondence Analysis (CCA) was also calculated between physico-chemical variables and phytoplankton diversity for assessing the effect of physico- chemical variables on various taxa of phytoplankton.

INTRODUCTION The only information available on the seasonally snow covered high altitude lakes above 4,000 m. is that of Thomson (1852), Hutchinson (1933, 1937), Lomer (1969), James and Hubbick (1969), Singh and Sharma (1985) and Kumar et al. (1989). High altitude lakes have simple trophic structure and harbour few species predominated by arthropods. The present paper on Suraj Tal Lake gives a preliminary account of limnological and biological features on the high altitude lake of the Great Himalayan Range of which nothing is known. ARBA INVESTIGATED Suraj Tal Lake is situated at an altitude of 4,800 m. AMSL (Lati : 32°45 'N ; Longi: 77°25 'E) on the Great Himalayan Range in the Lahaul-spiti valley of Himachal­ pradesh.

  • Interface of Geodiversity, Geomorphosites, Geotourism and Seasonal Economy in Lahaul and Spiti, Himachal Pradesh, India Krishnanand
    Landform Analysis 38: 25–34 doi: 10.12657/landfana-038-003 © 2019 Author(s) Received: 4.12.2019; Accepted: 27.12.2019 This is an open access article distributed under Interface of Geodiversity, Geomorphosites, Geotourism and Seasonal Economy in Lahaul and Spiti, Himachal Pradesh, India Krishnanand Department of Geography, Delhi School of Economics, University of Delhi, India, [email protected] Abstract: Interface of Geodiversity with human response can be understood simply as, the natural range (diversity) of ge- ological (rocks, minerals, fossils), geomorphological (landforms, topography, physical processes), soil and hydrological features including their assemblages, structures, systems and contributions to landscapes together with the anthropo- genic amalgamation in the landscape system. Geomorphosites are those components of geodiversity that have acquired a scientific, cultural/historical, aesthetic and socio-economic value due to human perception or exploitation (Panizza, 2001). The trans-Himalayan district of Lahaul and Spiti, Himachal Pradesh, India is a landlocked district in trans-Hima- laya accessible seasonally through high mountain passes; where the interface is manifested though human response to the geodiversity elements. The abiotic factors play a significant role in generating stimuli and the human response varies accordingly in the study area. It is also known as the Tethyan Himalayan region, where the interface (interactive zone/ crossing point/edge) of Geomorphosites and human response in terms of geotourism has been analysed and mapped. The data has been collected through extensive field work using structured questionnaire survey and field observations at geomorphosites having unique characteristics. The field work has been done in May–June 2017 and June 2018. The assessment of human response in terms of seasonal economy and geotourism has been done using GIS environment, GPS and SWOT analysis.

  • International Journal of Multidisciplinary Approach and Studies Analyzing Resource Potential for Nature Based Tourism
    International Journal of Multidisciplinary Approach and Studies ISSN NO:: 2348 – 537X Analyzing Resource Potential for Nature Based Tourism: A Case Study of the State of Himachal Pradesh (India) Punit Gautam Associate Professor, Department of Tourism and Hotel Management, North-Eastern Hill University, Shillong, Meghalaya (India) ―Potential‖ broadly insinuates something promising but not yet (fully) exploited; it symbolizes the sum total of qualitative and quantitative values of the given resources on which the degree and extent of its exploitability depends (Kandari, 1984). In the context of tourism, assessing the resource potential in quantitative terms is highly complex process, if not impossible, as it involves the physical, psychological and spiritual demands on the people belonging to diverse geographical, socio-cultural and economic backgrounds who travel under different motives, interests, preferences and immediate needs. To quote Kandari (1984), ―potential for tourism development in any area depends on the availability of recreational resources in addition to the factors like climate, seasons, accessibility, proximity to market, political stability, state of economy and general infrastructure, quality of natural environment, attitude of the local people, travel trade entrepreneurs and tourism planners, the existing tourist plant facilities and the degree to which they can be further developed within the prevailing limitations of natural, cultural and financial environments. Healthy combination of all those and many other factors
