Plant communities if some northern temperate forests of Pakistan
Moinuddin Ahmad
ABSTRACT
A quantitative botanical survey was undertaken along the
way of Gilgit to Chilas and from Gilgit to Astore (dry
temperate). Thirty stands were sampled. On the basis of
index of similarity, dominant species and floristic
composition fifteen community types were recognized.
The area shows three ecogeomorphological regions which
differentiated into various habitats. Rainfall,
temperature altitude, plant cover and vegetation
composition show wide variation in the different sectors
of the study area.
