8th Std 2. Land,Soil, Water, Natural Vegetation and Wildlife Resources.Navya Rai
8th Std Social Science - Geography- Chapter 2. Land,Soil, Water, Natural Vegetation and Wildlife Resources.
Land is among the most important natural resources.
It covers only about thirty per cent of the total area of the earth’s surface and all parts of this small percentage are not habitable.
The uneven distribution of population in different parts of the world is mainly due to varied characteristics of land and climate.
The rugged topography, steep slopes of the mountains, low-lying areas susceptible to water logging, desert areas, thick forested areas are normally sparsely populated or uninhabited. Plains and river valleys offer suitable land for agriculture. Hence, these are the densely populated areas of the world.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

2. NATURAL VEGETATION
Natural vegetation refers to a plant community,
which has grown naturally without human aid and
has been left undisturbed by humans for a long
time. This is termed as virgin vegetation.
The term flora is used to denote plants of a
particular region or period. The species of animals
are referred to as fauna. This huge diversity in flora
and fauna kingdom is due to the following factors:
3. RELIEF
Land
Land affects natural vegetation directly and indirectly.
The fertile level is generally devoted to agriculture.
The undulating and rough terrains are areas where grassland and woodlands develop and
give shelter to a variety of wildlife.
Soil
Different types of soils provide a basis for different types of vegetation.
The sandy soils of the desert support cactus and thorny bushes, while wet, marshy, deltaic
soils support mangroves and deltaic vegetation.
The soil at the hill slopes has conical trees.
4. CLIMATE
Temperature
The character and extent of vegetation are mainly determined by
temperature along with humidity in the air, precipitation and soil. The fall in
the temperature affects the vegetation and its growth.
Photoperiod (Sunlight)
The variation in the duration of sunlight at different places is due to
differences in latitude, altitude, season and duration of the day. Due to the
longer duration of sunlight, trees grow faster in summer.
Precipitation
Areas of heavy rainfall have more dense vegetation as compared to areas
of less rainfall.
5. TYPES OF VEGETATION IN INDIA
In India, the following major types of vegetation are found:
• Tropical Evergreen Forests
• Tropical Deciduous Forests
• Tropical Thorn Forests and Scrubs
• Montane Forests
• Mangrove Forests
Let’s study them in detail.
6. TROPICAL EVERGREEN FORESTS
• These forests are present in the Western Ghats and the island groups of
Lakshadweep, Andaman and Nicobar, upper parts of Assam and Tamil Nadu
coast.
• These forests grow best in areas having rainfall more than 200 cm with a
short dry season.
• The trees reach great heights up to 60 metres or even above.
• It has the vegetation of all kinds i.e trees, shrubs and creepers giving it a
multilayered structure.
• These forests appear green all the year-round.
• Important trees of this forest are ebony, mahogany, rosewood, rubber and
cinchona.
• Common animals found in these forests are elephant, monkey, lemur and
deer.
8. TROPICAL DECIDUOUS FORESTS
These forests are also called the monsoon forests.
They are spread over the region having rainfall between 200 cm and 70 cm.
They shed their leaves about 6 to 8 weeks in the dry summer.
In these forests, the common animals found are lion, tiger, pig, deer and elephant.
These forests are further divided into:
Moist deciduous: These are found in areas having rainfall between 200 and 100 cm.
Teak is the most dominant species of this forest. Bamboos, sal, shisham, sandalwood,
khair, kusum, arjun and mulberry are other commercially important species.
Dry deciduous: These are found in areas having rainfall between 100 cm and 70 cm.
There are open stretches, in which teak, sal, peepal and neem grow.
9. THE THRON FORESTS AND SCRUBS
• The natural vegetation consists of thorny trees and bushes. This type of
vegetation is found in the north-western part of the country, including semi-
arid areas of Gujarat, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Uttar
Pradesh and Haryana.
• Trees are scattered and have long roots penetrating deep into the soil to get
moisture.
• The stems are moist to conserve water.
• Leaves are mostly thick and small to minimize evaporation.
• Acacias, palms, euphorbias and cacti are the main plant species.
• Common animals are rats, mice, rabbits, fox, wolf, tiger, lion, wild ass,
horses and camels.
10. MONTANE FORESTS
Montane forests are the forests which are found in the mountains.
The wet temperate type of forests are found between a height of 1000 and
2000 metres.
At high altitudes, generally, more than 3,600 metres above the sea level,
temperate forests and grasslands give way to the Alpine vegetation.
Alpine grasslands are used for grazing.
At higher altitudes, mosses and lichens form part of tundra vegetation.
The common animals found are Kashmir stag, spotted deer, wild sheep, jack
rabbit, Tibetan antelope, yak, snow leopard, squirrels, shaggy horn wild ibex,
bear and rare red panda, sheep and goats.
12. MANGROVE FORESTS
Mangroves are trees that live along tropical coastlines,
rooted in salty sediments, often underwater.
The mangrove tidal forests are found in the areas of coasts
influenced by tides. Mud and silt get accumulated on such
coasts.
Dense mangroves are the common varieties with roots of
the plants submerged underwater.
Sundari trees are found in Ganga-Brahmaputra delta and
provide hard timber.
Royal Bengal Tiger is a famous animal in these forests.
14. WILD LIFE
India is rich in its fauna.
Elephants are found in the hot wet forests of Assam,
Karnataka and Kerala.
One-horned rhinoceroses are found in Assam and West
Bengal.
Rann of Kachchh is the habitat for wild ass whereas the Thar
Desert is the habitat for camels.
The natural habitat of the Indian lion is the Gir forest in
Gujarat.
Tigers are found in the forests of Madhya Pradesh, the
Sundarbans of West Bengal and the Himalayan region.
15. WILD LIFE
Ladakh’s freezing high altitudes are home to yak,
the shaggy horned wild ox, the Tibetan antelope,
the bharal (blue sheep), wild sheep, and the kiang
(Tibetan wild ass).
In the rivers, lakes and coastal areas, turtles,
crocodiles and gharials are found.
Peacocks, pheasants, ducks, parakeets, cranes
and pigeons are some of the birds inhabiting the
forests and wetlands of the country.
16. Cause of Major Threat to flora and fauna
Every species has an important role in the ecosystem.
Hence, conservation of flora and fauna is essential.
About 1,300 plant species are endangered and 20
species are extinct. The main causes of this major threat
to nature are:
Hunting for commercial purposes
Pollution due to chemical and industrial waste
Rapidly cutting of the forests for cultivation and
habitation
17. Government Initiative to Protect Flora and Fauna
The government has taken many steps to protect the flora
and fauna of our country.
18 biosphere reserves have been set up in India to protect
flora and fauna. 10 out of these have been included in the
world network of biosphere reserves.
Financial and technical assistance has been provided to
many botanical gardens by the government since 1992.
Project Tiger, Project Rhino, Project Great Indian Bustard
and many other eco-developmental projects have been
introduced by the government.
103 National Parks, 535 Wildlife Sanctuaries and Zoological
gardens are set up to take care of natural heritage.
