Fascine
Bundles of live branches lay in shallow trenches along contour- Catch debris, reinforce the slope, increase infiltration and drainage
- Suitable for small gullies and dry slopes
- Fascine spacing: 4m for <30 degree slope; 2m for 30-45 degree slope
- Trench: 10-20cm
Jute netting
Jute nets or (bora) are used- Placed on slope or degraded land with the help of the stakes
- Seeds or cuttings can be placed inside
- Natural regeneration takes place on time
Grass waterways
Earth waterway planted with grasses- Drains runoff, reduce its velocity, protect top soil
- Dubo, centipede grass
- Length of waterway: <30m;
- Provide drop structures if longer waterways
- Drop structures not more than 50cm high; 3% slope between th
Carbon Sequestration potential, Spatial Distribution and Uses of Dendrocalamus strictus
Abstract:
Long-term storage of carbon in the terrestrial biosphere, belowground, ocean and soil, which helps in decreasing the carbon-dioxide (the principal greenhouse gas) concentration in the atmosphere, is termed as carbon sequestration. Carbon sequestration can be enhanced throughthe expansion of forest and management of degraded lands.
Palisade
- Woody cuttings across the slope along contour to treat small and narrow gullies
- Assuro, bainsh, dabdabe, phaledo, kavro, khirro, saruwa, simali
- Reinforces the slope, increases infiltration, catches debris
- Nov.-Jan.
