The Protection of Green Spaces for Climate Change Adaptation identifies how spatial planning and climate change adaptation are linked by examining the protection of green spaces in cities across Europe, Africa, the Middle East, South America and Australia.This book identifies how, in each case, spatial planning instruments can influence the protection of green spaces, and whether – and if so how – they are being adapted in response to actual and expected effects from climate change. In doing so, the institutional frameworks of each country analysed are first presented. This provides the basis for discussing the key problems occurring at the state (and city) level in responding to the challenges of climate change adaptation, especially for the protection of green spaces. In the individual chapters, the issues identified above will be analysed from the perspective of diverse countries: Australia, Ghana, Iran, Mexico, Brazil and Poland. The contributors in this edited collection will present how the indicated issue is identified in systems that are diverse in many respects. This book concludes by demonstrating how the relationship between climate change adaptation and spatial planning can be framed in a more universal way, taking into account the international case studies that have been presented. This book deals extensively with both climate change adaptation issues and comparisons of spatial planning systems.By focusing on a synthesis of these issues, this book will add significantly to the discussion, providing a new basis for theoretical and practical considerations. It will be of interest to researchers and students of spatial planning, public policy, environmental protection, climate protection and law, as well as professionals working in these areas.

This book presents concise summaries of cutting-edge research and practical applications across the fields of physical, environmental, and human geography. It publishes compact refereed monographs under the editorial supervision of an international advisory board with the aim to publish 8 to 12 weeks after acceptance. Volumes are compact, 50 to 125 pages, with a clear focus. The series covers a range of content from professional to academic such as timely reports of state-of-the art analytical techniques, bridges between new research results, snapshots of hot and/or emerging topics, elaborated thesis, literature reviews, and in-depth case studies.The scope of the series spans the entire field of geography, with a view to significantly advance research. The character of the series is international and multidisciplinary and includes research areas such as GIS/cartography, remote sensing, geographical education, geospatial analysis, techniques and modeling, landscape/regionaland urban planning, economic geography, housing and the built environment, and quantitative geography. Volumes in this series may analyze past, present, and/or future trends, as well as their determinants and consequences. Both solicited and unsolicited manuscripts are considered for publication in this series.This book is of interest to a wide range of individuals with interests in physical, environmental, and human geography as well as for researchers from allied disciplines.

Tillfälligt slut
The contributions collected in this volume complement volume 1 of this series, disclosing results of current developments in methodologies and applications of computational chemistry methods. The covered topics include fundamentals and applications of propagator calculations, as well as recent developments in the computationally efficient and accurate SAC-CI method, which allows calculation of various electronic states at the same time. SAC-CI studies of excited states of large molecular systems like porphyrins are reviewed, and its application to investigations of surface phenomena is discussed. The book also features a review of recent work on quantum Monte Carlo simulations.Furthermore, the book discusses the application of computational methods to biomolecules and, in particular, the application of the DFT methods to prediction of molecular structures and the IR spectrum of the DNA bases, as well as currently developed force field parameters and their application in molecular dynamics calculations of biologically important molecules. Lastly, there is a review of a quantum chemistry course which prepares students at the Department of Chemistry of ETH Zurich to perform their own ab initio studies.
