Book Synopsis Jordan's Arid Badia by : Roderic Dutton
Download or read book Jordan's Arid Badia written by Roderic Dutton and published by Smith-Gordon & Company. This book was released on 2008 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Geomorphology, geology and minerals, and livestock management are assessed together with regional land use and land use planning; and the overall biodiversity of the region is described. Complementary to environmental studies are social studies of the health, nutrition, employment, livelihood and disability status of the population. The Badia Programme has been able to combine modern approaches to information gathering (including techniques such as remote sensing) with the traditional knowledge of the Bedouin as twin cornerstones to achieving an understanding of the geography of this important and characteristic region of the Middle East. In the words of the project leaders 'We are learning that fragile as desert systems may be, they remain robust in terms of their ability to respond to change'. The result is, if not a textbook, a rich source of reference in human geography that will be useful to teachers and students.

Book Synopsis Trends in Water Resources Research by : Alan B. Prescott
Download or read book Trends in Water Resources Research written by Alan B. Prescott and published by Nova Publishers. This book was released on 2008 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Water resources are sources of water that are useful or potentially useful to humans. Many uses of water include agricultural, industrial, household, recreational and environmental activities. Virtually all of these human uses require fresh water. Only 2.7 percent of water on the Earth is fresh water, and over two thirds of this is frozen in glaciers and polar ice caps, leaving only 0.007 percent available for human use. Fresh water is a renewable resource, yet the world's supply of clean, fresh water is steadily decreasing. Water demand already exceeds supply in many parts of the world, and as world population continues to rise at an unprecedented rate, many more areas are expected to experience this imbalance in the near future. The framework for allocating water resources to water users (where such a framework exists) is known as water rights. This book presents new and important research on this urgent global issue.

Book Synopsis Managing Geo-Based Challenges by : Serwan M. J. Baban
Download or read book Managing Geo-Based Challenges written by Serwan M. J. Baban and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-07-03 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides sound conceptual understanding of the current approach to management and decision making regarding geo-based challenges in developing countries that tend to suffer from information poverty and subjectivity and are reactive. The book also provides the necessary technical tools to energize research thinking and develop locally driven practical and sustainable solutions, ultimately moving management and decision making from being reactive to being proactive. This book fills a void as there are no published books to show the way forward or to present real case studies for this purpose. Case studies that utilize new technologies and scientific thinking are presented for developing sustainable management options based either on producing local applied research or on utilising relevant international research. These case studies are based on the author's first-hand experiences in arid/semi-arid (Iraq, Tunisia, Morocco and Jordan), temperate (UK) and tropical environments (Malaysia, the Caribbean region, Indonesia and Australia).
