Protected Area Management

Until recently, values and benefits from protected areas have often been underestimated as well as taken for granted. Protected Area Management - Recent Advances demonstrates that there are deep necessities in how the wider scientific, environmental, socioeconomic, and cultural values that these natural ecosystems provide should increasingly be recognized. The book highlights various approaches for managing and conserving protected areas to respond to some pressing global challenges such as climate change, demand for food and energy, overexploitation, and habitat change. It addresses these issues in five main sections that cover biodiversity and genetic resources; protected marine areas; community, ecotourism, and protected areas; and protected area conservation and monitoring.

Challenges in Tropical Coastal Zone Management

This book focuses on tropical coasts, which are highly vulnerable due to a multitude of stressors. Population growth is substantial, habitats are lost and biodiversity is reduced at an alarming rate, severely affecting many ecosystem services. This situation calls for sound coastal management and the effective engagement of all relevant stakeholders. About two decades ago the M.Sc. program ISATEC (International Studies in Aquatic Tropical Ecology) was created at Bremen University (Germany) to train young scientists for a professional engagement in the complex field of tropical coastal and resource management. This book provides a platform for those Alumni to report on their work experiences ...

Proceedings of the 4th Borobudur International Symposium on Science and Technology 2022 (BIS-STE 2022)

This is an open access book.Related to the big theme of the SDGs reinforcement at our previous conference, we try to invite all academics and researchers around the world to participate in the 4th Borobudur International Symposium 2022 (4thBIS 2022). As we know, the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on all the 17 SDGs have demonstrated how what began as a health catastrophe swiftly transformed into a human, socioeconomic and environmental crisis. The 4th BIS brought up “The Innovation Chain: A Contribution to Society and Industry” as the main theme to respond this condition. This conference is expected to support the UN Agenda. Additionally, this conference will also provide avenues for participants to exchange ideas and network with each other as well as domain experts from their fields. Overall, this event is aimed at professionals across all spheres of technology and engineering including the experienced, inexperienced, and students as well. The conference will be held virtually on Wednesday, December 21st, 2022 in Magelang, Central Java, Indonesia.

The destruction of millions of acres of forest land through wildfires is a global cause of concern. Artificial intelligence (AI), transformative in nature, has the potential to transcend and significantly mitigate risk factors of wildfires. AI-driven monitoring systems can detect early signs of wildfire activity, allowing for faster, more targeted responses that can minimize damage and save lives. Machine Learning and Internet of Things in Fire Ecology elucidates and explores the interface of fire ecology with AI, machine learning, and internet of things, as these technologies emerged as a pivotal domain with transformative potential. It will assist environmental-related industries in understanding the paraphernalia and dynamics of the fire ecology ecosystem. Covering topics such as AI, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), and wildlife conservation, this book is an excellent resource for government officials, ecologists, academicians, policymakers, researchers, environmental specialists, industry experts, graduate and postgraduate students, and more.
