Forest cover, forest policy and social forestry
- Forest cover: very dense, moderately dense and open forest; states with the largest area and highest share
- Reserved, protected and unclassed forests; permanent forest estate
- Forest policy of 1952 and 1988: the one-third target and hill-plain split
- Social forestry as a regional land-use approach
- Wildlife conservation geography: biosphere reserves, national parks and sanctuaries as land use, Project Tiger and Project Elephant as programmes
- Wetland types and distribution: saline expanses, deltas, coastal lagoons, floodplains, northeastern marshes and montane lakes
