This first volume on Himalayan forests discusses the synthesis of Himalayan forest ecosystems. It begins with contextual foundations that establish the environmental background and climate patterns crucial for understanding these mountains. The chapters provide context through detailed examination of Himalayan climate dynamics and a novel leaf-based classification system, setting the framework for understanding major forest types and associations across elevational gradients. This book places particular emphasis on forest hydrological processes through critical review of water-forest interactions. This then further reveals topographic and climatic factors that govern forest distribution and crucial water regulation services these ecosystems provide to downstream communities. This book covers forest phenology, nutrient cycling, carbon dynamics and productivity and thus demonstrates the intricate functioning of these high-altitude ecosystems.
