Description
Earth Observation: Sustainable Development Perspectives offers expert insight to the latest progress made in terrestrial, oceanic, and atmospheric processes, and their inter-linkage in the face of changing climate using earth observation. Reviewing contemporary research, this volume will address various challenges faced in agricultural research and education, crop production forecasting, agroforestry, floriculture, horticulture, crop insurance and marine resources utilization for sustainable development in the warming world.
The editors examine the advances made in understanding the changing dynamics of various ecosystems such as land use, water resources, ecosystem productivity and biodiversity. The book addresses ocean-atmosphere interactions, modes of climate variations such as, El Nino and Indian Ocean dipole, extreme events, tropical cyclone, summer monsoon and distribution of organic matter and interlinks among various ocean-atmosphere phenomena. The use of advanced data sets, measurements techniques, modeling and analytics protocols, analyses methods and interpretations are also discussed.
For those working towards sustainability using earth observation, this text is a valuable resource for understanding the changing dynamics of the environment in the face of climate change.
- Analyzes various challenges faced in agricultural research and education, crop production forecasting, agroforestry, vegetation phenology, forest cover resilience, high altitude wetlands, aerosols, greenhouse gases and coastal management
- Explores ocean-atmosphere interactions, modes of climate variations, such as El Nino and Indian Ocean Dipole, extreme events, tropical cyclone, summer monsoon, and distribution of organic matter and their interlinks among various ocean-atmosphere phenomena
- Examines various biogeophysical processes using Earth observation for better climate mitigation and adaptation
