grasslands
Grasslands are regions with dry summers and cold winters characterized by grasses and herbs rather than trees. There are several types of grasslands globally containing different plants and animals. Grasslands have a dry climate with warm summers and cold winters, and a growing season where plants can grow and an inactive season when it is too cold. Three common grassland plants are the Panicled Aster, Goldenrod, and Blazing Star which can be identified by their curly leaves, hairy stems, and slender leaves respectively.

Bat plant
The Bat Plant is a tropical plant native to Southeast Asia that is grown for its unusual flower shape resembling bats. There are two main varieties, the white Bat Plant with larger white flowers and ears, and the black Bat Plant with purple wings. The flowers are on long stalks with whiskers adding to the odd appearance. While it can be grown outdoors in northern Australia, farther south it requires a pot and indoor placement in winter or a greenhouse. It grows to 1 meter tall and wide in partial shade with rich soil and water in summer, drying out in winter when it flowers in summer and autumn. Older plants multiply from underground tubers.
Calatheas 2
Calatheas are tropical plants with strikingly patterned foliage that originate from the forest floor. They come in various sizes and shapes but prefer warm, humid conditions with rich, well-drained soil that does not dry out or become waterlogged. Calatheas grow best with lots of shade and will burn if exposed to direct sunlight. Their intricate leaf patterns make them ideal for brightening dull garden areas.

Weed identification and classification By Mr Allah Dad Khan Provincial Coordi...
There are approximately 350,000 known plant species, but less than 1% (about 3,000 species) have economic value and only around 300 species are used for human food and feed. A weed can be defined as a plant that grows where it is not wanted. Weeds negatively impact crops through competition for resources and by harboring pests and diseases. Common agricultural weeds include annual grasses like goosegrass and foxtail, perennial grasses like quackgrass, and broadleaf weeds like chickweed, thistle, and purslane. Weeds cause major crop yield losses each year through competition.

Ornamental grasses January 2017
Ornamental grasses provide low-maintenance ground cover and visual interest in gardens. They come in varieties suited to different conditions and can be used as borders, ground cover, or in containers. While called "grasses", some like mondo grass are actually from other plant families.
Acorus species are moisture-loving ornamental grasses that form clumps and have variegated leaves, making them suitable for pond edges or submerged in water features. Cordyline varieties like 'Electric Pink' and 'Red Fountain' offer colorful foliage and architectural forms suitable for containers or gardens. Japanese blood grass and golden Japanese forest grass provide ornamental value through their foliage and fall colors. Liri

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
