Communicating Climate Change Information for Decision-Making
This book provides important insight on a range of issues focused on three themes; what new climate change information is being developed, how that knowledge is communicated and how it can be usefully applied across international, regional and local scales. There is increasing international investment and interest to develop and communicate updated climate change information to promote effective action. As change accelerates and planetary boundaries are crossed this information becomes particularly relevant to guide decisions and support both proactive adaptation and mitigation strategies. Developing new information addresses innovations in producing interdisciplinary climate change knowledge and overcoming issues of data quality, access and availability. This book examines effective information systems to guide decision-making for immediate and future action. Cases studies in developed and developing countries illustrate how climate change information promotes immediate and future actions across a range of sectors.
Coviability of Social and Ecological Systems: Reconnecting Mankind to the Biosphere in an Era of Global Change
This book considers the principle of ‘sustainable development’ which is currently facing a growing environmental crisis. A new mode of thinking and positioning the ecological imperative is the major input of this volume. The prism of co-viability is not the economics of political agencies that carry the ideology of the dominant/conventional economic schools, but rather an opening of innovation perspectives through science. This volume, through its four parts, more than 40 chapters and a hundred authors, gives birth to a paradigm which crystallizes within a concept that will support in overcoming the ecological emergency deadlock.

Isotope Research in Zooarchaeology
New techniques for understanding animal and human interactions in the past Through case studies of faunal remains from Roman Britain, prehistoric Southeast Asia, ancient African pastoral cultures, and beyond, this volume illustrates some of the ways stable isotope analysis of ancient animals can address key questions in human prehistory. Contributors use a diverse set of isotopic techniques to investigate social and biological topics, including human paleodiets and foodways, hunting and procurement strategies, exchange patterns, animal husbandry and the genetic consequences of domestication, and short- and long-term environmental change. They demonstrate how different isotopes can be used alone or in conjunction to address questions of animal diet, movement, ecology, and management. Studies also examine how sampling strategies, statistical techniques, and regional and temporal considerations can influence isotopic results and interpretations. By applying these new methods in concert with traditional zooarchaeological analyses, archaeologists can explore questions about human ecology and environmental archaeology that were previously deemed inaccessible.

GROUND WATER QUALITY IN CHURU, RAJASTHAN
INTRODUCTION: Water is prime natural resources, basic resources, a basic human need and a precious asset of the city. Planning, development, operation and maintenance of all water resources to support response to the growing the growth of city economy and the wellbeing of the population, in -need for drinking water, agriculture products, industrial production and electricity, a general improvement of living conditions and employment is of almost importance. Water not only makes from 70% to 90 % of weight of life but also represents the continuous phase of living organisms. Water maintains the body fuel and regulates the body temperature. It helps in removing the body's waste in the form of sweet, bathing and washing laundering ablution domestic sanitation, animals and industries. This is the important point to note that in early time habitation used to be nearby rivers, lakes, and springs because without water there would have been no life.
