Understanding Climate Change Impacts on Crop Productivity and Water examines the greenhouse gas emissions and their warming effect, climate change projections, crop productivity and water. The book explores the most important greenhouse gases that influence the climate system, technical terms associated with climate projections, and the different mechanisms impacting crop productivity and water balance. Adaptive and mitigative strategies are proposed to cope with negative effects of climate change in particular domains. This book will help researchers interested in climate change impacts on the atmosphere, soil and plants.
Uncovers links between climate change and its impact on crop and water outputs
Integrates information on greenhouse gas cycles and mathematical equations into climate/crop models for analysis and seasonal prediction systems
Provides strategies for efficient resource management and sustainable crop production in future
Helps researchers interested in climate change impacts on the atmosphere, soil and plants

Описание: Invertebrates perform such vital roles in global ecosystems and so strongly influence human wellbeing that biologist E.O. Wilson was prompted to describe them as little things that run the world.
Описание: This book is the first dedicated to questioning the issue of a single, global dangerous amount of climate change within a social science framework. It should be of interest to students and scholars of environmental policy and politics, climate change communication, and science, technology and society studies.

Описание: Attempts to understand the production and impacts of climate change and proposals for mitigation and adaptation through gender analyses are thin on the ground. This book explains how gender, as a power relationship, influences climate change related strategies and considers the additional pressure that climate change puts on uneven gender relati

Описание:
How can religion help to understand and contend with the challenges of climate change? Understanding Climate Change through Religious Lifeworlds, edited by David Haberman, presents a unique collection of essays that detail how the effects of human-related climate change are actively reshaping religious ideas and practices, even as religious groups and communities endeavor to bring their traditions to bear on mounting climate challenges.
People of faith from the low-lying islands of the Caribbean to the glacial regions of the Himalayas are influencing how their communities understand earthly problems and develop meaningful responses to them. This collection focuses on a variety of different aspects of this critical interaction, including the role of religion in ongoing debates about climate change, religious sources of environmental knowledge and how this knowledge informs community responses to climate change, and the ways that climate change is in turn driving religious change.
Understanding Climate Change through Religious Lifeworlds offers a transnational view of how religion reconciles the concepts of the global and the local and influences the challenges of climate change.
Описание: Biodiversity and the Climate Crisis: Essential Understanding and Connections provides students with a collection of scholarly articles that not only help them to build an appreciation for the vast diversity of species on Earth, but also an understanding of how Earth's climate is changing rapidly, with implications of climate disruption on societies and especially other species.
Over the course of eleven chapters, students read articles that introduce the concept and descriptions of biodiversity and provide scientific evidence of climate change and how it is impacting species. Students read about climate disruption effects upon species in regions of North America, as well as global-scale responses and vulnerability of marine fisheries to climate disruption. The collection concludes with a chapter that discusses the economic impact of climate change, with recommendations on how to constructively address this international problem, including the pivotal role of young people.
The revised first edition features full color photos, charts, graphs, and maps.
A timely resource developed to provide students with valuable foundational knowledge, Biodiversity and the Climate Crisis is well-suited for undergraduate courses in environmental science and environmental studies.

Описание: This book details recent work to explore and understand the climate of Venus. It offers a historical account of the exploration of the planet as well as gives an up-to-date overview of recent observational results from the ESA Venus Express Mission.
Climate change is affecting every country on every continent. It is disrupting national economies and affecting lives. Weather patterns are changing, sea levels are rising, and weather events are becoming more extreme.
Although greenhouse gas emissions are projected to drop about 6 per cent in 2020 due to travel bans and economic slowdowns resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, this improvement is only temporary. Climate change is not on pause. Once the global economy begins to recover from the pandemic, emissions are expected to return to higher levels.
Saving lives and livelihoods requires urgent action to address both the pandemic and the climate emergency.
This is the descriptive introduction to climate change.

Описание: Paleoclimatology is the field of study that aims to analyze the climate of the geologic past and climatic variability on earth. Some of the significant topics covered in this book are geological time scale, biogeochemistry, oceanography, remote sensing and measurement techniques to understand the climate of past, etc. The researches and case studies encompassed in this book are aimed at understanding past climate and climate changes in context of present and future climatic variability. This book will help new researchers by foregrounding their knowledge in this field.
