German phonetics is a bit more challenging as it contains different phonemes and special vowels that influence pronunciation and are not represented in many other European languages. Although you may have heard that German grammar is tough to master, it is highly logical, and so is definitely accessible to anyone who wishes to dedicate the time to learning and putting the rules into frequent practice.

Bivariate analyses and logistic models were applied to assess associations between periodontitis and its putative risk factors.ResultsPrevalence of clinical attachment loss of ≥3, ≥5 and ≥7 mm was 97.8%, 63.8% and 30.8% respectively. Percentage of teeth per individual showing clinical attachment loss of ≥3, ≥5 and ≥7 mm was 49.8%, 18.4% and 8.0% respectively. After adjustment for covariates, individuals aged ≥35 years (OR = 5.83, 95% CI: 3.09–11.00; p < 0.001), men (OR = 2.18, 95% CI: 1.15–4.11; p = 0.02) and diabetics (OR = 3.92, 95% CI 1.03–14.99; p = 0.05) had a higher risk for destructive periodontitis, classified according to the CDC/AAP case definition.ConclusionThough periodontitis was hig...

Eastern Ghats are well known for their tropical deciduous forests, are under threat due to high economic potential. The present study emphasizes, understanding of biodiversity at the landscape level. A landscape represents a mosaic of interacting ecosystems and consists of patches of different land covers. The biodiversity of these patches is again a manifestation of existing climatic conditions and human disturbance. The patch characterization along with landscape parameters enables one to identify disturbance regimes. Besides, the biodiversity characterization of landscapes provides very important input for the prioritization of bioprospecting zones and for conservation. The uniqueness of the study lies in the availability of location specific information about 1902 plant species and their status with respect to endemic, threatened and of other economic/medicinal importance. The forest cover in Eastern Ghats constitutes 65,724 sq.kms, which occupies 29.3% of total geographical area. The database created in GIS domain provides versatility for the updating and appending with the future inventory programs. Biodiversity at landscape level has been achieved based on the species richness, ecosystem uniqueness, biodiversity value, terrain complexity in conjunction with disturbance regimes and vegetation types. The study provides information of high disturbance and high biological richness area suggesting future management strategies and formulating action plan. The biologically rich areas identified in the present study are base for creation of new protected areas.

Sound forest management practice was based on the forest condition and its changes over time. Therefore, it was essential to acquire dynamic information of forest resources for scientifically managing and effectively utilizing forest resources. However, traditional meth-ods of forest monitoring and management had many shortcomings, such as the difficulties in data updating , lack of spatial explicitness, lack of real-time data updates, excessive manual work, difficulty in data transmission, and so on. To overcome these problems there is necessary to take help of the spatial decision support system. Even though the latest technologies in are available, they are not much flexible for the decision makers to empower the forests. This paper deals with how to develop a geospatial decision support system for forest management also make this to available to the online users.Webbased decision support system will gives you the management aspect to the forests. By preparing the Disturbance index map as well as Biological richness map, developing decision support system adding spatial query became interesting task. This web based geospatial decision support system provides the information regarding the type of vegetation, Area of the vegetation disturbance index of that particular vegetation, Area statistics, and Route analysis for the particular species. It also gives a network analysis for each and every area. It can also develop a sample point contour layer by giving the sample points. Key words:GIS,Management,Disturbance Index,Biological Richness,Biological Exploration,Decision Support system.

The map was created using an on-screen visual interpretation technique and has an accuracy of 90%, as assessed using 15,565 ground control points. India has hitherto been using potential vegetation/forest type map prepared by Champion and Seth in 1968. We characterized and mapped further the vegetation type distribution in the country in terms of occurrence and distribution, area occupancy, percentage of protected area (PA) covered by each vegetation type, range of elevation, mean annual temperature and precipitation over the past 100 years. A remote sensing-amenable hierarchical classification scheme that accommodates natural and semi-natural systems was conceptualized, and the natural vegetation was classified into forests, scrub/shrub lands and grasslands on the basis of extent of vegetation cover. We discuss the distribution and potential utility of the vegetation type map in a broad range of ecological, climatic and conservation applications from global, national and local perspectives. We used 15,565 ground control points to assess the accuracy of products available globally (i.e., GlobCover, Holdridge’s life zone map and potential natural vegetation (PNV) maps). Hence we recommend that the map prepared herein be used widely. This vegetation type map is the most comprehensive one developed for India so far. It was prepared using 23.5 m seasonal satellite remote sensing data, field samples and information relating to the biogeography, climate and soil. The digital map is now available through a web portal (http://bis.iirs.gov.in).
