Associated forest regimes, in which deforestation and reforestation patterns have evolved in recent times, and differing densities of settlement and cleared agricultural landscapes in each of these altitudinal zones, add to the environmental diversity of Nepal. Associated fauna and exotic species are in various states of endangerment especially Bengal tigers, one horned rhinos, wild elephants, crocodile, musk deer, and peasants, to name a few- so that their forested and mountainous habitats as ‘Wild Life Reserves’ also deserve our attention, and are featured in this monograph’s remit.. | 出版日期 | Book 2021 | 关键词 | Demography; Environmental Geography; Geographical Information Systems (GIS); Geospatial Analytical Tech | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-50168-6 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-50168-6Series ISSN 1879-7180 Series E-ISSN 1879-7199 | issn_series | 1879-7180 | copyright | Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2021 |
