Описание: Development of land resources in a sustainable manner requires the integration of economic, environmental and social policies and their implementation in a mutual reinforcing manner. The concept of "sustainable development" was mainly disseminated as a long-term oriented policy by the World Commission on Environment and Development under the "Our common future" report sub¬mitted in the General Assembly of the United Nations in 1987. Sustainable development of land resources can be defined as development that "meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations of meeting their own needs (Brundtland Commission)". The developmental mea¬sures appropriated in a sustainable way are associated with the human activities that ensure the harmony of social, economic and ecological balance.The high growth rate of human population in many of the developing nations is putting growing pressure on the finite land resources. This is a major cause of land degradation. Desertification, droughts and depletion of natural resources affect more than 2 billion people across the globe, where it is estimated that this situation might worsen due to the unsustainable practices of soil and wa¬ter under the present scenario of climatic changes. The potential risks arising from the violation of sustainable principles are sometimes hard to conceive in the present situation. Nonetheless, the concussion of harmful and unsustainable activities of humans might hurt the habitants even more badly and can influence the survival of future generations. This book covers a wide range of sustainable developmental measures which work towards a common goal of achieving sus¬tainable pattern of development by envisaging different uses of land resources, the planning of land-use patterns, the formation of policies towards the equi¬table distribution of land and addressing the challenges while supporting the development of land resources.The topics of this book are diverse where introductory chapters provide an in¬sight of land-related definitions, the future trends related to land resources and give an overview of cause-problem-symptom relationship. They provide a brief description of the services of ecosystem and extent of the land practices along with the planning of watershed management. Further, a lot of attention has been paid to the challenges in sustainable management of land resources that throw light on the key issues of water management and climatic adaptations that can be resolved through the implementation of an integrated approach. Lead¬ing chapters of the book provide a glimpse on the promotion of sustainable management along with the planning of resource utilization by devising long term planning of environmental goods and services in a cost-effective manner. The objective is to promote international cooperation and develop a framework which entails the response against the climatic conditions through the applica¬tion of multi-dimensional and focused goals.In accordance with the above outline, the book gives a detailed description of innovations in the administration of land management by detailing the needs for continuous change and formation of innovation platforms that facilitate the conduct of land management. Aligning with the same structure, the tools and approaches for the assessment of sustainable development illustrate the steps involved under this approach while screening the evaluation and conduct of management process. The concluding chapters of this book scrutinize the cli¬matic changes and their major challenges while going through the phase of development of resources followed by the mitigation and adaptation of strate¬gic policies to overcome these dramatic situations. Lastly, it delivers the major objectives and scope of sustainable land management by describing the major objectives of holistic approach in framing the policy, conducting research and development, sharing knowledge and providi

Ecosystem-Based Adaptation: Approaches to Sustainable Management of Aquatic Resources presents a close examination of the role of ecosystem-based adaptation in managing river basins, aquifers, flood plains and their vegetation to provide water storage and flood regulation. Furthermore, the book explores improved ecosystem-based services for managing floods, conservation of water and its resources (including watersheds), avoiding water scarcity, and ensuring long-term water security planning, all in the context of sustainable development goals.
This book will help scientists pave the way for easy implementation of sustainable development goals, ensuring a secure and sustainable future.

Описание: Due to many challenges (i.e. climate change, energy, water and land shortage, high demands on food, land grabbing, etc.), agriculture production potential is expected to be seriously affected; thus, increasing food insecurity and hunger in many already affected regions (especially in Africa). In this context, sustainable agriculture is highly recommended as an eco-system approach where soil, water, plants, environment and living organisms live in harmony. Innovative technologies and research should be developed to ensure sustainable agriculture and productivity using modern irrigation systems, improved varieties, improved soil quality, etc. In the meantime, the preservation of natural environment should be based on resource conservation technologies and best management practices. Sustainable Agricultural Development, not only raises the serious ethical and social issues underlying these huge environmental problems, but also aims at presenting successful experiences from all over the world in relation with sustainable farming, sustainable management of water and land resources, and innovative processes in livestock production. It also aims at providing inputs to decision making processes and encouraging the transfer of relevant know-how, technologies and expertise to different countries where similar agro-climatic conditions may exist; thus saving precious resources and promoting sustainable agricultural development as a relevant approach to tackle the food security challenge. Finally, this book focuses on the paradigmatic and policy dimensions and call for an innovative approach by analyzing the key themes in a complex and interrelated manner.
