【研究成果の概要】
To meet the objectives of this research under COVID-related restrictions, the methodology was shifted to GIS-based analysis to supplement earlier field visits. The collected field data from the farmers in Nov 2019 was validated using a normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) based on Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) during a 15-year period from 2004 to 2018, for seven apple-growing locations in the Kinnaur district of Himalayas. This was done in collaboration with National Remote Sensing Centre (India) and a research hire. The paper originating from this research is published in MDPI Agriculture. During this year, I also worked on finalizing and revising my research articles and books for final publication.
I worked on a documentary on “Role of Indigenous and local communities in ecosystem restoration” available here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PuPpZEK6S7g&t=505s
Two research papers, two edited books, four book chapters, and one policy brief published. Participated in the JSPS Science Dialogue Programme.
