Aplikasi Penginderaan Jauh dan Sistem Informasi Geografis Untuk Pemodelan dan Pemetaan Data Biofisik Lahan
Tujuan disusunnya buku berjudul Aplikasi Penginderaan Jauh dan Sistem Informasi Geografis untuk Pemodelan dan Pemetaan Biofisik Lahan, baik di darat maupun di perairan dangkal, adalah untuk menyediakan dasar teori akurat yang mendukung pemilihan metode penelitian dalam bidang tersebut. Semakin pesatnya perkembangan teknologi penginderaan jauh (PJ) dan sistem informasi geografis (SIG), menarik banyak pengguna dari berbagai bidang ilmu untuk memanfaatkannya. Di sisi lain, pemanfaat kedua ilmu ini tidak mudah dan tidak bisa hanya mengandalkan pengertian terhadap penggunaan perangkat lunak terkait saja. Konsep dasar mengenai pengertian apa itu PJ dan pendekatan atau metode apa yang tepat saat di...
Jurnal Ph.D. Mama
Buku yang sangat inspiratif! Bangsa Indonesia patut bangga memiliki para wanita pejuang yang ulet, cerdas, dan tangguh. Semua ini membuktikan bahwa perempuan mampu meski banyak hal menghalang. Kita perlu meningkatkan kebijakan publik dan pemihakan agar perempuan Indonesia dapat terus mampu memajukan dirinya dan ikut memajukan bangsa dan negara. –Sri Mulyani Indrawati, Menteri Keuangan RI. Ketika dewasa ini perempuan Indonesia makin dituntut untuk memiliki gelar akademis tertinggi untuk menempati berbagai jabatan publik dan menghadapi benturan dengan peranan mereka di dalam rumah tangga, para tokoh perempuan yang digambarkan dalam buku ini membuktikan bahwa dengan ketekunan, ketangguhan, ke...
Remote Sensing of Land Use and Land Cover
Filling the need for a comprehensive book that covers both theory and application, Remote Sensing of Land Use and Land Cover: Principles and Applications provides a synopsis of how remote sensing can be used for land-cover characterization, mapping, and monitoring from the local to the global scale. With contributions by leading scientists from aro
Mangrove Ecology, Silviculture and Conservation
Mangroves are a fascinating group of plants that occur on tropical and subtropical shorelines of all continents, where they are exposed to saltwater inundation, low oxygen levels around their roots, high light and temperature conditions, and periodic tropical storms. Despite these harsh conditions, mangroves may form luxuriant forests which are of significant economic and environmental value throughout the world - they provide coastal protection and underpin fisheries and forestry operations, as well as a range of other human activities. This book provides an up-to-date account of mangrove plants from around the world, together with silvicultural and restoration techniques, and the management requirements of these communities to ensure their sustainability and conservation. All aspects of mangroves and their conservation are critically re-examined. Those activities which threaten their ongoing survival are identified and suggestions are offered to minimise their effects on these significant plant communities.
The Energetics of Mangrove Forests
Despite their importance in sustaining livelihoods for many people living along some of the world’s most populous coastlines, tropical mangrove forests are disappearing at an alarming rate. Occupying a crucial place between land and sea, these tidal ecosystems provide a valuable ecological and economic resource as important nursery grounds and breeding sites for many organisms, and as a renewable source of wood and traditional foods and medicines. Perhaps most importantly, they are accumulation sites for sediment, contaminants, carbon and nutrients, and offer significant protection against coastal erosion. This book presents a functional overview of mangrove forest ecosystems; how they liv...
Topography and the Environment
Third-year and postgraduate courses in physical geography, environmental studies and environmental science, particularly course units in geomorphology, climatology, pedology, biogeography, ecology; landscape ecology, GIS and remote sensing, and environmental modelling. This is the first book of its kind, focusing on topographic influences on environmental components. As a comprehensive introduction to the subject, Topography and the environment discusses the main facets of topography, including new and old ideas, models, methods, and theories, and identifies four different approaches to topography as an environmental factor: the physical ground surface; all the features of the Earth's surface, including the human-made; topographically based modelling, developed in association with geographical information systems (GIS); and the idea of place as a human construct. The authors then explore individual topographic influences on environmental elements such as climate, water, soils and plants. Accessible and wide ranging, it helps students understand the intrinsic links and the crossdisciplinary nature of physical systems and processes.
Springer Handbook of Geographic Information
Computer science provides a powerful tool that was virtually unknown three generations ago. Some of the classical fields of knowledge are geodesy (surveying), cartography, and geography. Electronics have revolutionized geodetic methods. Cartography has faced the dominance of the computer that results in simplified cartographic products. All three fields make use of basic components such as the Internet and databases. The Springer Handbook of Geographic Information is organized in three parts, Basics, Geographic Information and Applications. Some parts of the basics belong to the larger field of computer science. However, the reader gets a comprehensive view on geographic information because the topics selected from computer science have a close relation to geographic information. The Springer Handbook of Geographic Information is written for scientists at universities and industry as well as advanced and PhD students.

Current Topics in Tropical Emerging Diseases and Travel Medicine
Tropical emerging diseases pose a significant risk for the circulation of old and new pathogens in areas previously unknown, also implying the possibility of new morbidities and mortalities and new consequences for naïve populations. Globalization, migration and travel are key factors for tropical diseases, and represent the need for integration of tropical medicine, travel medicine and epidemiology in the understanding of such complex situations. Neglected tropical diseases such as leprosy or Chagas disease, arboviral diseases, HIV, Ebola, and arenaviral infections are just a few examples. This book tries to update significant epidemiological and clinical research in many aspects with a multinational perspective.
