Forest's Resilience

"Forest's Resilience" explores the ability of tree species in Sitamata Wildlife Sanctuary to adapt and survive under environmental disturbances such as drought, fire, and waterlogging. It examines species-specific strategies, such as deep roots for accessing groundwater, fire-resistant bark, and mechanisms for thriving in saturated soils. By studying these traits, the lens provides insights into the ecological dynamics of the forest, highlighting how species maintain balance and recover in challenging conditions, thereby contributing to the sanctuary's biodiversity and long-term stability.
