“…A decline in aboveground biomass with the increase in elevation as reported by a number of researchers (Rana et al, 2023;Leuschner et al, 2007;Moser et al, 2011) are in line with the findings of this study while some others (Pokhrel & Sherpa, 2020;Thakur et al, 2024;Kumar et al, 2019;Thokchom & Yadava, 2017) The findings of the present study contradict with those of Behera et al (2017), and Borah et al (2013), Padmakumar et al (2018) regarding the relationship between species diversity and biomass. The present study suggests that higher biomass is not always associated with higher diversity, which may be attributed to the tree density and girth size of individual species.…”

The primary aim of this investigation was to determine the biomass and carbon stock distribution pattern among different forest stands of diverse elevations in the Morang district of East Nepal. It is noteworthy to estimate carbon stock and biomass of relatively least underexplored forests in east Nepal. The data for estimating the biomass and carbon stocks of the five different forest sites, viz. Bhaunne, Raja-Rani, Murchungi, Adheri, and Sagma located between 100-1300m above the mean sea level, were acquired through the measurement of inventory plots selected randomly. Altogether, 50 sample plots were established within five forest stands located on different elevational zone; within each forest site, 10 sample plots of 20m × 20m size, were laid out for the measurement of trees. In the case of shrubs and herbs, nested plots of 5m × 5m and 1m ×1m, respectively were established. Calculation of the biomass of trees and shrubs was facilitated through the application of an allometric equation, while the biomass of herbs was determined by the harvest method. The carbon concentration in the plant materials was estimated using ash content method. The comprehensive analysis of the stand biomass in the Bhaunne, Raja-Rani, Murchungi, Adheri, and Sagma forest sites were: 815.86 Mg ha-1, 414.19 Mg ha-1, 606.81 Mg ha-1, 519.20 Mg ha-1, and 299.96 Mg ha-1, respectively, with minimum at the Sagma site (high-altitude forest) and maximum at the Bhaunne site (low-altitude forest). As per the variation in stand biomass, the carbon stocks in the forest sites also showed the same trend, but the values ranged from 140.19 Mg C ha-1 to 333.63 Mg C ha-1, with the minimum in the Sagma site and the maximum in the Bhaunne site. The application of the Friedman Test revealed statistically significant variation in the tree biomass between the Murchungi and Sagma sites and also in the shrub biomass between the Adheri and Sagma sites. Similarly, noteworthy variations were observed in the herb biomass of the Bhaunne, Raja-Rani, Murchungi, and Adheri sites as compared to that of the Sagma site. The present study contributes to the understanding of forest ecosystems in context to carbon management.

Temple Desecration in Pre-modern India and Indo-Muslim States: A Discussion Beyond Historiography

Recent articles on temple desecration in pre-modern India and Indo-Muslim states by Richard M. Eaton published in Frontlilne have contributed to the popular Western narratives about India and Indian history. There are many contested areas, misunderstandings and misinterpretations in Eaton’s deliberations on the problem arising out of the conventional historiographic method. Here, an attempt has been made to critically review some of the arguments of Eaton on temple desecration in pre-modern India in a wider methodological perspective, that is, beyond historiography. The historiographic evidence alone in interpreting Indian history may not be enough in view of the complexity of Indian situation, thus necessitating validation of historiography by careful application of contemporary ethnological evidence, circumstantial material evidence and specific Indian contextual situation.

“…The goal was to minimize the losses incurred during harvesting, production and marketing by sowing proper type of seeds in the farm. Recently, wavelet textural features were used for classification of agricultural and food materials [1,5,19]. Wavelet analysis is a signal processing technique for multi-resolution image texture analysis.…”

This research proposes an algorithm to implement feature extraction technique using wavelet, and use the extracted coefficients to represent the image for classification of Grains. A total of 75 Wavelet features were extracted from the high-resolution images of paddy grains. The wavelet features were employed along with ANN to identify paddy varieties. This research is aimed at comparing Single-level discrete 2-D wavelet transform and Multilevel 2-D wavelet decomposition, using ANN for discriminating Indian Paddy Varieties and also evaluate variety-wise classification of individual grains. An evaluation of the classification accuracy of wavelet features and ANN was done to classify four Paddy (Rice) grains, viz. Karjat-6(K6) and Ratnagiri-2(R2), Ratnagiri-4(R4) and Ratnagiri-24(R24). All feature models were tested for their ability to classify these cereal grains and the most suitable feature was identified from the Wavelet features for accurate classification. Single-level discrete 2-DWT gave the best classification using ANN and more accuracy can be obtained by increasing the levels of decomposition.
