Abstract
Riverine forests are in highly miserable conditions since past several years due to chaotic felling, miss-management, and poor protection practices. If this scenario continues, then almost all forests would disappear, leaving deserts in their place. Environmental degradation and biodiversity loss, livelihood loss of poor rural populations in the province are the major associated glitches.
It is, therefore, considered necessary to make such study to map the drivers which are responsible for the loss of riverine resources and to address sustainably the liable issues based on the real database. The work reported focuses on the various factors of deforestation of riverine forests. It is designed to assess the causes of deforestation and its impact at different areas of Indus Basin.
