PhD Supervision:
Seven students are currently working for their PhD degree.
PhD thesis titles of the
students:
(i) Livestock dependence
and grassland resource management in mid and high elevations of western
Arunachal Pradesh, India.
(ii) An ecological study of
plant residue quality and compost application on soil nutrient dynamics and
crop production in a rice based farming system of Arunachal Pradesh.
(iii) Impact of grazing on
microbial biomass and mineralization in the soils of grassland ecosystem at
Nambol, Manipur.
(iv)An ecological study of
plant species diversity, regeneration status and utilization patterns in
forests of Cachar and Hailakandi districts of Assam, India.
(v) Phenology and
nutrient dynamics of leaves in tropical forests of south Assam, India.
(vi) Structural diversity
and traditional uses of plant resources of tropical and sub tropical forests
of South Assam, Eastern Himalaya.
