Abstract:Present study was conducted to explore the population dynamics in vegetation of Kirana Hills, Sargodha growing under extreme dust pollution of stone crushing industry. Through extensive survey study sites were selected and floristic composition of the area was also completed. Heavy metal analysis of the dust revealed that all heavy metals were higher at extreme dust sites particularly in winter. The soil at each site and at each season varies based on the soil analysis. Vegetation data was collected by using q… Show more
