Altitudinal zonationed Moss as Bioindicators for Pollution

Placed as the crown of the mountain, Moist forest or tropical montane cloud forest (TMOF) are one of Earth’s most imperiled and neglected ecosystems. More than half of these forests are situated within Southeast Asia; those located in Malaysia are considered well studied in the region compared to ot...
