Our Warming Planet
"The processes and consequences of climate change impacts and adaptation are extremely heterogeneous, encompassing many different fields of study. Dr Martin Parry in his career has had the opportunity to explore many of these subjects with colleagues from these diverse disciplines. It was therefore natural for the Lectures in Climate Change series to continue with his colleagues contributing lectures on their specific areas of expertise related to climate change impacts and adaptation. Lectures in Climate Change is a unique combination of written text plus electronic slides that together comprise an informative and up-to-date set of presentations. The lectures have been written by top scient...
Climatic Change, Agriculture, and Settlement
Examines the effect of fluctuations in climate on agriculture and settlement of northern regions.
Plant Genetic Resources and Climate Change
This book will address the current state of climate change predictions, and how climate change will affect conservation and use of crop germplasm, both ex situ and in situ. In addition, specific examples of germplasm research related to 'climate change threats' will be highlighted. Such activities need to take place under a regime of access to and use of germplasm through international conventions and treaties.
Climate Change and World Agriculture
Originally published in 1990, this book analysed the sensitivity of the world food system and looked at the variety of ways in which it would be affected by climate change. It describes the effects of climate change on agriculture, estimates the impacts on plant and animal growth and looks at the geographical limits to different types of farming. It also considers the range of possible ways to adapt agriculture and so to mitigate the disastrous consequences of climate change.
Climate Change 2007 - Impacts, Adaptation and Vulnerability
IPCC Fourth Assessment Report on climate change impacts, adaptation and vulnerability for researchers, students, policymakers.
The Potential Effects of Climate Change in the United Kingdom
How will the Greenhouse Effect shape the climate of the UK in the years ahead? What research has been conducted into this subject and how can the findings help in preparing for the effects of climatic change? This report considers the potential impacts of climate change in the UK in a wide variety of environmental and socio-economic areas: the landscape, energy, tourism and the financial sector will all feel the shock waves. The coastal zone is seen as an area potentially at risk and the possible effects of climate change on the water supply are considered critical. Recommendations for policy development to abate greenhouse gas emissions and formulate adaptive strategies are made and appropriate approaches to research are suggested.
