  • Forest Degradation and Governance in Central India: Evidence from Ecology, Remote Sensing and Political Ecology
    Forest Degradation and Governance in Central India: Evidence from Ecology, Remote Sensing and Political Ecology Meghna Agarwala Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In the Graduate School of the Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2015 © 2014 Meghna Agarwala All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT Forest Degradation and Governance in Central India: Evidence from Ecology, Remote Sensing and Political Ecology Meghna Agarwala There is no clear consensus on the impact of local communities on the resources they manage, primarily due to a shortage of studies with large sample sizes that incorporate multiple causal factors. As governments decentralize resource management to local communities, it is important to identify factors that prevent resource degradation, to inform more effective decentralization, and help the development of institutional characteristics that prevent resource degradation. This study used remote sensing techniques to quantify forest biomass in tropical deciduous forests in Kanha-Pench landscape of Central India, and used these metrics to identify factors associated with changes in forest biomass. Kanha-Pench landscape was chosen because of its variation in forest use, and because forests were transferred over a period where satellite imagery was available to track changes. To verify that remote- sensing measured changes indeed constitute degradation, I conducted ecological studies in six villages, to understand changes in biomass, understory, canopy, species diversity and long-term forest composition in intensively used forests. To understand the impact of institutional variables on changes in forest, I interviewed members of forest management committees in fifty villages in the landscape, and tested which institutional variables were associated with changes in forest canopy since 2002, when the forests were decentralized to local communities.

  • CLIMATE, FLORA and FAUNA Note: the Study Material Consists of 3 Parts
    Assignment 8 Class VIII Geography Chapter 9 INDIA : CLIMATE, FLORA AND FAUNA Note: The Study Material consists of 3 parts - ○ Part I - The important highlights of the chapter. ○ Part II - The activity based on the chapter. ○ Part III - The questions based on the study material that you need to answer in your respective notebook and submit when you are back to the school. PART I HIGHLIGHTS OF THE LESSON INTRODUCTION - CLIMATE OF INDIA The climate of a country is based on the detailed study of its temperature, rainfall, atmospheric pressure and direction of the winds. The climate of India is greatly influenced by two factors : (a) The Tropic of Cancer (232°N) – It divides India into two halves - north temperate zone ​ and the south tropical zone. (b) The Great Himalayan range from northwest to northeast direction - It separates India ​ from the rest of Asia, thus preventing the country from the bitter cold winds from Central Asia. The vast north-south extent of India 8°N to 37°N covers a distance of about 3214 km from north to south. While one can observe the unique climatic contrasts from north to south. One factor which unifies the climate of India is the fact of monsoon with alternation of seasons and reversal of winds. Therefore, the climate of India is called Tropical Monsoons. 2. FACTORS AFFECTING CLIMATE OF INDIA India experiences great variation in temperature and rainfall due to various factors affecting its climate. They are: (a) Latitude and topography (b) Influence of the Himalayas (c) Altitude (d) Distance from the sea (e) Western disturbances and tropical cyclones (1) Upper air currents and jet streams (a) Latitude and topography: The Tropic of Cancer divides India into temperate or subtropical north and tropical south.

  • Sloth Bear Attacks on Humans in Central India: Implications for Species Conservation
    Human–Wildlife Interactions 12(3):338–347, Winter 2018 • digitalcommons.usu.edu/hwi Sloth bear attacks on humans in central India: implications for species conservation Nisha Singh, Wildlife & Conservation Biology Research Lab, HNG University, Patan, Gujarat, India -384265 [email protected] Swapnil Sonone, Youth for Nature Conservation Organization, Amravati, Maharashtra, India - 444606 Nishith Dharaiya, Wildlife & Conservation Biology Research Lab, HNG University, Patan Gujarat, India -384265 Abstract: Conflicts with wild animals are increasing as human populations grow and related anthropogenic activities encroach into wildlife habitats. A good example of this situation is the increase in conflicts between humans and sloth bears (Melursus ursinus) in India. Sloth bears are known for their aggressive and unpredictable behavior. More human fatalities and injuries have been attributed to sloth bear attacks than all recorded incidences of wildlife attacks in Buldhana Forest Division of Maharashtra, India. We interviewed 51 victims that were attacked by sloth bears between 2009-2017 to better understand the reasons for the attacks. Thirty- four of the attacks (66.7%) resulted in serious injuries, and there were 7 human mortalities (13.7%) reported. Most attacks occurred close to agricultural fields (66.7%) and during mid- day (1100–1400 hours). More attacks (64.7%) occurred when a person was working or resting in the field, or retrieving water for the field followed by attacks while watching over grazing livestock (13.7%). Individuals aged 31 to 40 years (35.3%) were the most common victims of sloth bear attacks. Half of the attacks were during monsoon season (July to October, 51%) followed by summer (March to June, 35%) and winter (November to February, 14%).

  • Participatory Governance and Pro-Poor Targeting: Evidence from Central India
    Participatory Governance and Pro-Poor Targeting: Evidence from Central India Neha1 July 2007 Abstract This paper examines the impact of a poverty alleviation program called the District Poverty Initiatives Project (DPIP), which is being implemented in the second largest state in India. DPIP is a World Bank project based on the community-driven development approach, wherein control of development decisions, resources and projects are given to the community groups. Funds are allocated to the village for various income generating subprojects, which are popularly selected in village meetings conducted by the DPIP personnel. These meetings are similar to and run parallel to the traditional village council meetings - the gram sabhas. The focus of this paper is threefold. First, it examines whether the project has indeed "empowered" the disadvantaged. Is it the case that treatment villages have greater information flows that translate into higher participation in village affairs? Second, it studies the role played by the parallel institution. Does attending the DPIP village meeting substitute or compliment attendance at the traditional village council meeting? Finally, this paper analyzes the spillover effects in terms of better targeting of other welfare programs. We use a unique data set that combines Indian census data for 300 villages and survey data of 6000 households spread over those villages. Findings confirm positive spillovers of the program on village governance issues.This paper adds to the growing literature on decentralization and community-driven development.

Garhwal University, Srinagar Garhwal, Uttarakhand-246174, India 2Associate Professor, University School of Environment Management, Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University, Dwarka 16C, New Delhi - 110078, India ⃰ Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract Due to shifting cultivation, the overall structure and composition of ecological condition is affected, hence landscape study becomes important for maintaining ecological diversity and appropriate scientific planning of any area. Garo hills region of northeast India is suffering from Geomorphological risk like sheet erosion, landslide etc. due to the age old tradition of shifting cultivation in the fragile hill slopes aided by other anthropogenic activities. The present study was conducted to examine the role of shifting cultivation for deforestation and degradation with variant of slope and elevation to relate vegetation cover with slope and elevation in the Garo Hills landscape of Meghalaya using temporal remote sensing data of 1991, 2001 and 2010. It revealed that there is decrease in dense forest and open forest during the 1st decade while areas under dense forest and non-forest increased in 2nd decade. This increased forest area is confined in the high slopes, which are inaccessible. The study shows increase in shifting cultivation near-about double fold in high slope and more than a double fold in the high altitudinal area in last decade, which is negative sign in terms of Geomorphological protection.

  • ABO Blood Groups and Sickle-Cell Trait Investigations in Madhya Pradesh Indore District (Central India)
    Anthropological Survey of India, Govt, of India, Indian Museum, Calcutta ABO Blood Groups and Sickle-cell Trait Investigations in Madhya Pradesh Indore District (Central India) Narendra Kumar From May to July 1963, the Author conducted field investigations on ABO blood groups and sickle-cell trait distributions in Indore district of Madhya Pradesh. Five hundred individuals belonging to four castes, the Kulmi, the Khati, the Mali and the Balai or Balahis, and a tribe, the Bhil, were tested. Ninety-five blood samples col­ lected from a number of other castes were also tested. The Kulmi or Kulambi caste is distributed throughout Central India. This caste is known as the Patidar in Gujerat and Kunbi in Maharashtra. In Indore division of Madhya Pradesh, the Kulmi are subdivided into a number of subsections such as the Kadve, the Leve, the Khade and the Moria Kulmi. The present study was re­ stricted to the Kadve subsection only. The Mali are also divided into a number of subcastes and the present study has been conducted among the Rami Mali subcaste. The Khati are generally known to be artisans as in Sitamau of Mandsaur district. But the Khati investigated in the present study are actually agriculturists living in Rangwasa and Tihi, the two villages situated on the outskirts of Indore and Mhow towns respectively. The Balai is a scheduled caste of weavers and watchmen (Russel, 1916) and occupy a low social status in caste hierarchy. Their caste structure, social life and material culture have been studied by Fuchs (1950). The Bhil, a scheduled tribe of central and west India has also been investigated.

  • Physical Features, Climate and Drainage of India Hand Outs
    INDIA PHYSIOGRAPHIC DIVISIONS India is the seventh largest and second most populous country in the world. Its area is 2.4% of the total world area but about 16% of the entire human races reside in its fold. In population, only the mainland China exceeds that of India. India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal and Bhutan form the well-defined realm of south Asia often referred to as the Indian sub-continent. Lying entirely in the northern hemisphere (tropical zone), the Indian mainland extends between the latitude -8°4' N to 37°6'N and longitude -68°7' E to 97°25'E. The southernmost point in the Indian territory, the Indira Point, is situated at 6°30' north in the Andaman and Nicobar islands. The tropic of cancer passes through the centre of India. India covers an area of 3.28 million sq km and measures about 3,214 km from north to south and about 2,933 km east to west. The total length of the mainland coastland is nearly 6,400 km and land frontier about 15,200 km. The boundary line between India and China is called the McMahon line. To the north-west, India, shares a boundary mainly with Pakistan and to the east with Myanmar and Bangladesh. The Indian Ocean lies in the south. In the south, on the eastern side, the Gulf of Mannar and the Palk Strait separate India from Sri Lanka. The Andaman and Nicobar Islands in the Bay of Bengal and the Lakshadweep islands in the Arabian Sea are parts of the Indian Territory India's relief is marked by a great variety: India can be divided into five major physiographic units: 1.

  • Fertility Control: Reproductive Desires, Kin Work, and Women&
    Holly Donahue Singh Institute for Social Research University of Michigan (E-mail: [email protected]) Fertility Control: Reproductive Desires, Kin Work, and Women’s Status in Contemporary India This article reappraises the link between fertility and women’s status by examining changing means and meanings of reproduction in India. It is based on data gathered during and after 16 months of ethnographic fieldwork conducted between 2005 and 2007 in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, India, on social and cultural contexts of infer- tility. Lucknow is the capital city of Uttar Pradesh, India’s most populous state. Historical views of population and fertility control in India and perspectives on the contemporary use of assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs) for practices such as surrogacy situate the ethnographic perspectives. Analysis of ARTs in practice complicates ideas of autonomy and choice in reproduction. Results show that these technologies allow women to challenge power relations within their marital families and pursue stigmatized forms of reproduction. However, they also offer new ways for families to continue and extend an old pattern of exerting control over women’s reproductive potential. [reproductive desires, infertility, India, reproduction, surrogacy] Surrogacy should be seen as an opportunity to strengthen and widen our deepest ethical concerns by questioning patriarchal norms of the family and the stigmatisation of infertility. At the very least, its miraculous potential should not be used to reinforce regressive ideas about blood and inequality or rationalise it as a way to address women’s economic marginalisation. (Qadeer and John 2009) Introduction In this article, I examine fertility control by considering the ways women’s bodies, and particularly women’s reproductive potential, have been put into service of their marital families (in-laws) in India.
