Assessment of soil erosion rates, carbon stocks, and erosion-induced carbon loss in dominant forest types of the Himalayan region using fallout-137Cs

Abstract Forest plays a crucial role in mitigating soil erosion and preserving organic carbon, especially in mountainous regions of Himalayas. However, limited information exists on soil erosion rate, soil organic carbon stock (SOCS), and associated carbon loss in these areas because of the rugged t...
