The aim of this study was to evaluate the macro-and micronutrient availability along with altitudinal gradients (1900–2100 m) at four sites in the Indian Himalaya. The lowest altitude (1900–1950 m) of ecosystem resulted significantly higher availability ranged (1.13–1.48%) of Walkley-Black Organic Carbon (WBC), available KMnO4-N (∼233–272 kg ha−1), Olsen-P (8.80–9.96 kg ha−1), NH4OAc-K (∼200–222 kg ha−1), DTPA-Fe (∼32–38 mg kg−1) and Cu (1.73–1.84 mg kg−1) over the highest altitude (2050–2100 m) of the study area. Altitude receiving the advantage by shifting of nutrients from higher to lower latitude improved WBC, KMnO4-N, Olsen-P, NH4OAc-K and DTPA-Zn, Fe, Cu and Mn availability by ∼24, 14, 12, 10, 9, 14, 6 and 3%, respectively, over lowest availability of the nutrients in the ecosystem. The soil EC (1: 2.5 soil: water) was significantly higher under 1900–1950 m altitude of the ecosystem. The multivariate analysis showed that Olsen-P, micronutrients (Fe, Zn, Cu and Mn), WBC and KMnO4-N were the key determinant of variability under Indian Himalayan region (IHR).","PeriodicalId":222251,"journal":{"name":"Climate Change and Environmental Sustainability","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128742401","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To identify pertinent literature searched four electronic databases (Cera, Science direct, EBSCO, Google scholar). The search strategies combined terms for gender dimension, climate change, CSA and women farmer in hills. Total 56 studies were reviewed and integrated into this article. Careful attention to the concerns raised, will hopefully lead to the design and conduct of high-quality research projects and their writeup. The review found that CSA in Uttarakhand still faces a number of challenges, including: lack of CSA knowledge among women farmers, lack of clear conceptual understanding, limited enabling policy and financing. There is an urgent need to understand the environmental, economic and social challenges in the context of climate change, and consequently self-mobilize to develop and implement responsive policies at appropriate scales.","PeriodicalId":222251,"journal":{"name":"Climate Change and Environmental Sustainability","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133340139","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The observations on fish consumption from two coastal states in India – Kerala and Gujarat offers interesting insights into how there has been change in consumers’ tastes and preferences and further how it can be integrated to create a sustainable fisheries value chain. However, there is a need to develop a strong statistical base on consumption studies with respect to food items such as fish given its importance as a source of affordable nutrition and the international trade aspects associated with it. In the post covid scenario, we argue that there is a need that within the broader ambit of the Pradhan Mantri Matsya Sampada Yojana, we need to augment the existing momentum of augmenting awareness and advocating sustainable consumption to devise a stronger statistical base with informed policy.","PeriodicalId":222251,"journal":{"name":"Climate Change and Environmental Sustainability","volume":"64 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133039130","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
