Influence of Anthropogenic Pressure on the Plant Species Richness and Diversity Along the Elevation Gradients of Indian Himalayan High-Altitude Protected Areas

Influence of Anthropogenic Pressure on the Plant Species Richness and Diversity Along the Elevation Gradients of Indian Himalayan High-Altitude Protected Areas

Plant biodiversity of some of the high-altitude national parks of Indian Himalaya is increasingly experiencing anthropogenic pressure. Consequently, plant species composition, vegetation structure, and diversity patterns of these protected areas are assumed to be substantially altered. However, limi...
