Forests play a very important role in the life and economy of the country. Forest vegetation and its accompanying soil organism make up as much as 90 per cent of the total Biomass on land. Due to deforestation, the stability of many ecological sub-systems have been greatly disturbed. Forest cover in the catchments areas of the rivers, control soil erosion and recurrence of floods. Once the forest cover is damaged, severe soil erosion takes place disturbing the entire eco-system, chocking the dams and reservoirs with silt load and thereby promotes recurrence of floods.

According to modern ecological theory, every species in a community occupies a singular ecological niche or a role in the environment. Niche theory predicts that communities that very in total resources or in the quality of those resources will contain more niches and, therefore, more species.

This book encompasses highly rich and well-researched readings on the theme.
