Indian Natural Vegetation | Geography of India

Image
           Natural Vegetation Natural Vegetation  refers to the plant cover that has not been distributed over a long time, so as to allow its individual species to adjust themselves fully to the climate and soil conditions. Thus, grasses, shrubs and trees, which grow on their own without any human interference, constitute the natural vegetation of an area. [1]      There is difference between flora, vegetation and forest.  Flora  refers to plants of a particular region or period, listed as species and considered as a group. For example, the Eastern Himalayas have about 4000 species of plants which vary with  increasing altitude from tropical to temperate and alpine. [2]      Vegetation , on the other hand,  refers to the assemblage of plants   species living in association with each other in a given environmental setup. For example, the redwood forests, coastal mangroves, roadside weed patches, cultivated gardens and lawns, etc., all are encompassed by the term vegetation.

(b) Distribution:    These forests are chiefly distributed in the deltas of large rivers on the eastern coasts and in pockets on the western coast in saline swamps of Sunderbans in West Bengal and coastal areas of Andhra Pradesh and Odisha.

Because of waterlogged conditions, the roots are deprived of oxygen during high tides. So, some mangrove roots extends vertically above the ground. These vertical ro
