Forest landscape and its ecological quality: A stepwise spatiotemporal evaluation through patch-matrix model in Jhargram District, West Bengal State, India

Landscape conversion becomes a continuous process in a natural landscape for any strategic development. In a forest landscape mosaic, the conversion from non-forest land to forest land implies a constructive approach. Various bio-geographic processes are enriched and developed when the land was conv...
