Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Pradip Saud's research investigates forest biomass estimation and distribution, particularly in Nepal. His work utilizes airborne LiDAR and forest inventory data to assess above-ground forest biomass, as demonstrated in his 2024 publications focusing on the Terai region and mid-hills of Nepal. He also studies factors influencing tree mortality in managed forest stands, examining the impact of competition indices on prediction models, as seen in his 2022 research on shortleaf pine stands. Saud's research interests extend to wildlife conservation, with a focus on the behavior of Himalayan musk deer at latrine sites and its implications for their protection. He has also contributed to overviews of wood-based bioenergy in North America and the application of the Internet of Things in digital agriculture.
