Seven plant communities viz. Celtis-Dichanthium- Themeda, Ficus-Dichanthium-Themeda, Ficus-Dodonaea-Themeda, Celtis-Dichanthium-Themeda, Dodonaea-Pinus-Themeda, Celtis- Pinus-Dodonaea, Micromeria-Themeda-Dodonaea, are recognised at various altitudes of Mai Dhani Hill, Muzaffarabad in April, 1995. Index of diversity and its components decrease from low altitude to high altitude. In Dodonaea-Pinus-Themeda community (Alt. 1100 m), species diversity is high (12.5) whereas in Celtis-Dichanthium-Themeda community (Alt. 1050 m), species diversity is low (3.7), species richness decreased from low altitude to high altitude. Similarly equitibility also decreased from low altitude to high altitude, but in Celtis-Dichanthium-Themeda community it increases. Species maturity also decreases from low altitude to high altitude. In Celtis-Dichanthium-Themeda community (Alt. 1050 m), species maturity is the highest (53.36) whereas in Celtis-Themeda-Pinus community (Alt. 1200 m) species maturity is the lowest (38.32). The soils vary from sandy loam to loam. The pH varies from 7.6 to 8.0. The organic matter differs from 2.0 to 2.65 per cent while CaCO3 varies from 15.7 to 23.2 per cent. The soil temperature decreases as the altitude increases. |
