Building Climate Resilience in Agriculture
This volume discusses the need to adopt Climate-Resilient Agriculture (CRA) practices to address the increasing global impact that climate change has on agricultural productivity and agriculture-dependent communities. This approach applies technological, policy and economic measures to achieve sustainable agricultural growth in the sectors of grain, fruit, vegetable, fiber, feed, livestock, fisheries and forestry, with the ultimate goal of adapting and building resilience to climate change. The book also uses GIS, crop modeling and remote sensing techniques for future climate resilience applications in agriculture, and covers pest control measures that avoid the use of pesticides to boost crop and livestock productivity for improved food security. The book will be of interest to researchers and students in environmental science, climate science, sustainability and agriculture, as well as policy makers and environmental organizations.
Climate Change and Ecosystems
The global population is projected to increase by 3.3 billion from 6.7 billion in 2008 to 10 billion in 2100. As a result, soil degradation and desertification are growing due to the increasing demand for food, feed, fiber, and fuel on finite soil resources. The problem of global food insecurity may be further worsened by the threat of global warming. Climate change is showing its impacts in terms of increasing temperatures, variable rainfall, and an increase in climate-related extremes such as floods, droughts, cyclones, sea-level rise, salinity, and soil erosion. The agriculture sector is the most sensitive to climate change because the climate of a region/country determines the nature and...
Advances in Mathematical Modeling and Scientific Computing
This volume collects the proceedings of the International Conference on Recent Developments in Mathematics (ICRDM), held at Canadian University Dubai, UAE, in August 2022. This is the second of two volumes, with this volume focusing on more applied topics, particularly mathematical modeling and scientific computing, and the first covering recent advances in algebra and analysis. Each chapter identifies existing research problems, the techniques needed to solve them, and a thorough analysis of the obtained results. Advances in Mathematical Modeling and Scientific Computing will appeal to a range of postgraduate students, researchers, and industry professionals interested in exploring recent advancements in applied mathematics.
Environmental Materials and Waste
Environmental Materials and Waste: Circular Economy and Pollution Abatement, Second Edition, contains the latest information on environmental sustainability as a wide variety of natural resources are increasingly being exploited to meet the demands of a worldwide growing population and economy. The book takes a multidisciplinary approach to fully realize the number of by-products which can be remanufactured, providing the foundation needed across disciplines to tackle this issue. As awareness and opportunities to recover valuable resources from process and bleed streams is gaining interest, sustainable recovery of environmental materials, including wastewater, offers tremendous opportunity t...
Post-Pandemic Economy, Technology, and Innovation
Coronavirus has dramatically changed the world as we knew it in many diverse ways. This new volume explores the impact of the pandemic on many aspects of life and work, including the global economy, entrepreneurship and innovation, intellectual property laws, agriculture, healthcare, teaching and education, marketing strategies, banking mechanisms, travel and tourism, and science and technology. The book looks at how virus outbreak has highlighted and emphasized the role of technological innovation as an essential connector as international borders were shuttered, and commercial activity was disturbed at an unprecedented scale. The information shared here will help healthcare providers, business administrators, and policymakers in many fields and occupations to navigate and manage the changes and impacts of the pandemic in their various roles.
Sustainable Plant Nutrition under Contaminated Environments
Global industrial growth has resulted in numerous pollutants being introduced into the environment. It has additionally caused decreased water availability for agricultural activity in developing countries, which, in turn, has compelled farmers to use wastewater irrigation. In advanced agricultural systems, farmers are adapting various strategies to achieve a higher yield and thus sustain crop productivity. Consequent to the introduction of contaminants in the environment, soil pollutants have become a critical issue. Selection of disease-resistant, high-yielding crop varieties, and extensive fertilizer applications are quite common among farming communities. This book provides insight into environmental pollutants with special reference to their interference with plant nutrition. It additionally discusses the physiological aspects of plant nutrition. This book enhances current knowledge of the effects of pollutants on plant growth and physiology.
