The piece is written by PhD scholars specializing in the area at the Islamia University Bahawalpur in Pakistan which lends to the authoritative nature of the article.[1]  

The piece will be beneficial to the “Vegetation and Flora” section of my work; particularly the valuable information about the vegetation in the Thal region from data collected over two years from 55 sample sites. [2]

The article offers significant insight that will be useful for the ‘Climate’ section as it offers clear statistics regarding temperatures, rainfall, and varying forms of severe weather that the region sees on a seasonal basis. [3]

The article’s topic is linked strongly to the fauna of the region for whom the grasses is cultivated by locals. [4]

It discusses the original settlement history of the Thal region, government initiatives to irrigate and populate the land as well as the involvement of Australia and New Zealand through the Colombo Plan which are all areas of interest for the section.[5]
