Описание: This book joins two domains of knowledge together: modelling and environmental management. It provides readers with an integrated, but modularised, body of knowledge spanning these domains in a single, accessible form. A must-read for students, researchers and practitioners within environmental science and planning related subjects.
Описание: This technical document provides a conceptual framework and standard methodologies for the monitoring, reporting and verification of changes in soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions/removals from agricultural projects that adopt sustainable soil management practices at farm level. It applies to different agricultural lands, including annual and perennial crops (e.g. food, fibre, forage and bioenergy crops), paddy rice, grazing lands with livestock including pastures, grasslands, rangelands, shrublands, silvopasture and agroforestry.
Soils have become one of the world’s most vulnerable resources in the face of climate change, land degradation, biodiversity loss and increased demand for food production. It is widely recognized that maintaining and increasing SOC stocks is not only crucial for reducing GHG emissions and removing CO2 from the atmosphere, but also for harnessing the benefits of increased SOC (and soil organic matter) for soil health and fertility by improving water storage and thereby increasing the access of plants to water, food production potential and resilience to drought.
The Global Soil Organic Carbon– Monitoring, Reporting and Verification (GSOC-MRV) protocol has been developed through an inclusive and active process involving experts and institutions from all regions of the world. This protocol does not constitute a mandatory document for FAO members or institutions, but is rather a guiding, non-binding technical document. As a living document, its continuous improvement and refinement is expected after its use and implementation in the field.

Описание: This volume discusses environmental issues associated with deep-sea mining, with an emphasis on potential impacts, their consequences and the policy perspectives. The book describes the methods and technologies to assess, monitor and mitigate mining impacts on marine environments, and also suggests various approaches for environmental management when conducting deep-sea mining. The volume brings together information and data for researchers, contractors, mining companies, regulators, and NGOs working in the field of deep-sea mining. Section 1 highlights the various environmental issues and discusses methods and approaches that can help in developing environmentally sustainable deep-sea mining. Section 2 details the results and outcomes of studies related to impact assessment of deep-sea mining, and proposes methods for monitoring. Section 3 discusses the need and means for developing data standards and their application to deep-sea mining. Section 4 discusses the policies, approaches, and practices related to deep-sea mining, suggests formats for developing environmental impact statements (EIS) and environmental management plans (EMP), and describes national and international regulations for environmental management. Section 5 concludes the text by putting deep-sea economic activities into an environmental context and conducting techno-economic analyses of deep-sea mining and processing.

Описание: At the centre of Decolonising Intercultural Education is a simple yet fundamental question: is it possible to learn from the Other? This book argues that many recent efforts to theorise interculturality restrict themselves to a variety of interpretations within a Western framework of knowledge, which does not necessarily account for the epistemological diversity of the world.
