Remote Sensing and GIS in Peri-Urban Research: Perspectives on Global Change, Sustainability and Resilience, Eleventh Edition provides the most recent methods and techniques, incorporating geoinformatics-based practices to map, evaluate, and model urban landscape attributes and changes. The book provides theory, methodology, and future perspectives of remote sensing and GIS techniques applied to peri-urban modelling, analysis and sustainability through the use of spatio-temporal geospatial datasets. It also includes case studies of real-world data sets, with applicable algorithms, techniques and methods for study.This will be a useful reference for researchers and academics in remote sensing, GIS, and spatial analysis, and environmental or urban scientists wanting to implement remote sensing technologies in their research.

Outlines applications of geospatial technologies for visualization of land use dynamics including spatial information about population distributions, built-up areas and degree of urbanization based on global and local datasetsProvides methodology for identification of peri-urban interfaces using techniques to identify peri-urban space and dynamics using remote sensing and GIS techniquesIncludes worldwide case studies by experts from different countries increasing the understanding of the nature of global peri-urbanization and growth

This book explores the intricate challenges and potential solutions in managing transboundary rivers in South Asia, a densely populated and ecologically diverse region. It examines the significant impacts of the growing climate crisis, disaster risks, population growth, and socio-political conflicts on transboundary river basins, which pose substantial risks to large areas of the Global South. The book highlights the critical need for multi-sectoral, multi-disciplinary, and cross-country perspectives to formulate collaborative policies that support sustainable development goals. Through specific case studies, the book addresses hydro-politics and flood hazards in countries like India, China, Pakistan, Nepal, Bhutan, and Bangladesh.FeaturesProvides a holistic explanation of transboundary water governance and integrates perspectives from environmental science, geography, hydrology, political science, international relations studies, law, water governance and sociologyIncludes detailed case studies and practical examples from different countries to help understand theoretical concepts through real-world scenariosUtilizes advanced technologies such as machine learning, AI, and deep learning for data analysis and predictive modelling and provides cutting-edge tools for predicting water-related challenges and improving management strategiesIncorporates spatial maps and geostatistical diagrams to visually enhance comprehension of complex data analysis and spatial relationshipsFeatures contributions by renowned scholars, policymakers, and practitioners in the field of water governance, providing cutting-edge research, expert analyses, and authoritative perspectivesRivers Beyond Borders is an excellent reference for students, researchers, and academics in environmental science, geography, hydrology, political science, law, sociology, and South Asian studies; policymakers, government officials, and professionals in water resource management and international relations; and practitioners in non-governmental organizations (NGOs), international development agencies, and environmental advocacy groups.

This volume is devoted to compiling recent advancements, methodological improvements, new processing techniques, integration methods and rigorous applications associated with conceptual techniques on the conservation and monitoring of forest resources for a scientific audience, with a focus on cases and applications in India. The primary objective of the book is to advance the scientific understanding of the recent trends and technological improvements in forest conservation, management and related research themes in forest resources and human-wildlife interactions. The book is organized into five sections: (I) Forest Conservation Ecology (II) Forest Conservation and Society (III) Forest Management (IV) Forest Monitoring using GIS and Remote Sensing and (V) Human Wildlife Conflicts. It covers various research themes related to forestry, wildlife, habitat fragmentation, forest management and human-wildlife conflict research, and therefore will bebeneficial to a diverse range of researchers, scientific organizations, wildlife scientists, biologists, ecologists and planners in the fields of wildlife and forestry. The book will further be of use to post-graduates, PhD research scholars, professors, geospatial experts, modellers, foresters, agricultural scientists, biologists, ecologists, environmental consultants and big data compilers.
