Coastal Fluxes in the Anthropocene
The Land-Ocean Interactions in the Coastal Zone Project of the International Geosphere-Biosphere Programme
Av Christopher J. Crossland, Hartwig H. Kremer m. fl.
Inbunden, 2005
1643 kr
Lägg i varukorg
In global coastal zones, the major fabric of goods and services for human welfare as well as global changes are extraordinarily visible. They are shaped by natural Earth systems processes on a planetary scale, which are reflected in a continuously adapting coastal environment. Now, in the …

The interactions between environmental change and human societies have a long, complex history spanning many millennia, but these have changed fundamentally in the last century. Human activities are now so pervasive and profound that they are altering the Earth in ways which threaten the very life …
Land-Use and Land-Cover Change
Local Processes and Global Impacts

Inbunden, 2006
1970 kr
Lägg i varukorg
The book presents recent estimates of the rates in changes of major land classes such as forest, cropland and pasture. Among the causative mechanisms behind land change, synergetic factor combinations are found to be more common than single key factor explanations. Aggregated globally, multiple …
