Redbud woodlands conservation status in Afghanistan: Implications for sustaining vulnerable ecosystems under multiple drivers of change
Original language description
Afghan redbud (Cercis griffithii Boiss.) woodlands near Kabul, Afghanistan face continued impacts from multiple drivers of change, including urban expansion, grazing, illegal cutting, and the implementation of forest policies. In this study, we collected ecological and social data from three sites to assess stand characteristics, as well as community perceptions on the drivers of change impacting them. A survey of community perceptions revealed that while only 24% of respondents perceived that natural regeneration was occurring on redbud forests, only 25% perceived that the forests were declining in status. Respondents perceived that Afghan redbud stands were exposed to multiple proximate and underlying drivers of change, although these perceptions differed across the three sites. Ecological surveys of stand conditions indicated that although all three study sites were exposed to the pressures of urbanization, the intensity of wood collection differed among the sites.
