Conceptual Model for the Vulnerability Assessment of Springs in the Indian Himalayas
climate Article Conceptual Model for the Vulnerability Assessment of Springs in the Indian Himalayas Denzil Daniel 1 , Aavudai Anandhi 2 and Sumit Sen 1,3,* 1 Centre of Excellence in Disaster Mitigation and Management, Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee, Roorkee 247667, India; [email protected] 2 Biological Systems Engineering Program, College of Agriculture and Food Sciences, Florida A&M University, Tallahassee, FL 32307, USA; [email protected] 3 Department of Hydrology, Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee, Roorkee 247667, India * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +91-1332-284754 Abstract: The Indian Himalayan Region is home to nearly 50 million people, more than 50% of whom are dependent on springs for their sustenance. Sustainable management of the nearly 3 million springs in the region requires a framework to identify the springs most vulnerable to change agents which can be biophysical or socio-economic, internal or external. In this study, we conceptualize vulnerability in the Indian Himalayan springs. By way of a systematic review of the published literature and synthesis of research findings, a scheme of identifying and quantifying these change agents (stressors) is presented. The stressors are then causally linked to the characteristics of the springs using indicators, and the resulting impact and responses are discussed. These components, viz., stressors, state, impact, and response, and the linkages are used in the conceptual framework to assess the vulnerability of springs. A case study adopting the proposed conceptual model is discussed Citation: Daniel, D.; Anandhi, A.; for Mathamali spring in the Western Himalayas.

A Case of Community Based Ecotourism in the Himalayas
ECOLOGICAL IDIOSYNCRASY: A CASE OF COMMUNITY BASED ECOTOURISM IN THE HIMALAYAS Dhiraj Pathak1, Gaurav Bathla2, Shashi K Tiwari3 1Assistant Professor and HOD, Faculty of Hospitality, GNA University, Phagwara (India) 2Assistant Professor, Faculty of Hospitality, GNA University, Phagwara (India) 3Associate Professor, Faculty of Hospitality, GNA University, Phagwara (India) I INTRODUCTION Community-based ecotourism is a form of ecotourism that emphasizes the development of local communities and allows for local residents to have substantial control over, and involvement in; its development and management, and a major proportion of the benefits remain within the community. Community-based ecotourism should foster sustainable use and collective responsibility, but it also embraces individual initiatives within the community. With this form of ecotourism, local residents share the environment and their way of life with visitors, while increasing local income and building local economies. By sharing activities such as festivals, homestays, and the production of artisan goods, community-based ecotourism allows communities to participate in the modern global economy while cultivating a sustainable source of income and maintaining their way of life. A successful model of community-based ecotourism works with existing community initiatives, utilizes community leaders, and seeks to employ local residents so that income generated from ecotourism stays in the community and maximizes local economic benefits. Although ecotourism often promises community members improved livelihoods and a source of employment, irresponsible ecotourism practices can exhaust natural resources and exploit local communities. It is essential that approaches to community-based ecotourism projects be a part of a larger community development strategy and carefully planned with community members to ensure that desired outcomes are consistent with the community’s culture and heritage. -

ABSTRACT Medicinal plants play important role in healthcare practices among the tribal's and rural people. These Tribal's and rural people have wonderful knowledge about the effective treatment of many health problems only by using the plant parts. This knowledge acquired by the tribal's and rural peoples usually passed from generation to generation only in verbal form. So an effort was carried out to assess ethno botanical information of some wild herb species used by the local dwellers of Surkanda Devi Hill in District Tehri Garhwal of Uttarakhand. The information presented in this paper was gathered by frequent field visit in the forest and adjoining villages, participatory observations, group discussion, interviews with local knowledgeable people residing nearby Surkanda Devi Temple from September 2014 to March 2016. A total of 60 plant species were collected during the field visit out of which 48 plant species under 41 genera and 30 families were reported ethno-medicinal by the local dwellers and used by them for their primary health care. The plants used for different purposes are listed with scientific name, family, local name, ethno-medicinal importance. -

Forest Structure, Diversity and Regeneration Potential Along Altitudinal Gradient in Dhanaulti of Garhwal Himalaya
Forest Systems 25(2), e058, 15 pages (2016) eISSN: 2171-9845 http://dx.doi.org/10.5424/fs/2016252-07432 Instituto Nacional de Investigación y Tecnología Agraria y Alimentaria (INIA) RESEARCH ARTICLE OPEN ACCESS Forest structure, diversity and regeneration potential along altitudinal gradient in Dhanaulti of Garhwal Himalaya Sushil Saha1, Govind-Singh Rajwar1 and Munesh Kumar2* 1Department of Botany Govt. Post Graduate College, Rishikesh 249201, Uttarakhand, India. 2Department of Forestry, HNB Garhwal University, Srinagar-Garhwal, Uttarakhand, India Abstract Aim of the study: The aim of the present study was to understatnd the forest composition, structure, diversity and regeneration potential along altitudinal gradient. Area of study: The study was carried out in Dhanaulti forest which falls under temperate region of Garhwal Himalaya in Uttarakhand state, India. Material and methods: Vegetation analysis was carried out using 10 quadrats at each altitude using a quadrat size of 10×10 m2. In each quadrat, categories of trees >30 cm cbh were considered as trees, 10-30 cm cbh as saplings and <10 cm cbh as seedlings. The data were quantitatively analyzed. Main results: In upper and middle altitudes, Cedrus deodara was reported dominant tree whereas, in lower altitude Quercus leucotrichophora was reported dominant. Tree density was highest in lower altitude which reduced middle and upper altitudes whereas, total basal cover increased with increasing altitude. The increasing total basal cover with altitude could be because of the presence of Cedrus deodara trees having higher girth classes. In tree, sapling and seedling layers, diversity (H) and equitabiltiy (EC) decreased with increasing altitude. However, concentrations of dominace (CD) and beta diversity (BD have shown reverse trend with H and EC which increased with increasing altitudes, in each layer of tree, sapling and seedling.
