Book excerpt: Après avoir été longtemps marginalisées, détruites ou dégradées, les zones humides sont aujourd'hui considérées comme un patrimoine précieux qu'il convient de préserver et de restaurer, en raison des multiples fonctions qu'elles remplissent et des bénéfices qui en découlent pour la société. Cet ouvrage collectif a été réalisé par des spécialistes de tous les domaines concernés par les zones humides. Après une introduction sur les enjeux actuels liés aux zones humides, il traite en détail des différentes fonctions de ces milieux : contrôle des crues, flux polluants, maintien de la biodiversité, etc. Les chapitres suivants exposent les avancées récentes en matière d'évaluation économique des services rendus par les zones humides. Enfin, sont exposées les méthodes mises au point pour la protection, la restauration et la création des zones humides. Concertation, recherche et action apparaissent, en conclusion, comme les clés pour la reconquête de ce patrimoine d'importance majeure. Cet ouvrage s'adresse aux ingénieurs, aux responsables d'administration, institutions publiques ou privées, aux associations et aux divers usagers concernés par les questions d'environnement, de gestion de l'eau, d'agriculture et d'équipement. Il sera également une synthèse utile aux chercheurs et aux étudiants

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This important new book develops an ecological-economics perspective on sustainability at the regional, national and international level. It explores prospects for sustainable development using methods firmly grounded in empirical reality, as well as emphasizing scientific, economic and socio-political concerns. This approach is based on the construction of non-monetary indicators for sustainability, and the application of cost-effectiveness analyses to identify robust alternatives for the achievement of specified policy norms. In calculating the requirements for sustainability the contributors attach importance to multiple criteria decision aid (MCDA) methods of analysis to evaluate the key components of sustainability and help assess the sustainability of aregional or national economic development trajectory. Case studies of water pollutants in the Bretagne region in France and greenhouse gas reduction in Europe are used to investigate resource allocation from this perspective. The contributors utilize the M3ED model - a structural economy-environment simulation model which gives a multi-sectoral representation of a national economy's production, final consumption and environmental pressures - to explore feasible economic futures. It is applied to scenarios in France to demonstrate ways that prospects for sustainability can be investigated at a national level. The contributors compare and contrast these models with the aims of more typical neoclassical modelling in their search for the most effective approaches to defining operational measures for sustainability. This book will be of great interest to academics in the field of ecological and environmental economics and to policymakers and planners in government and industry.

This book was released on 2007-06-14 with total page 435 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mieux connaître le fonctionnement et la valeur intrinsèque des forêts alluviales d'Europe est essentiel pour aider les scientifiques, les naturalistes, les gestionnaires et les décideurs politiques à les préserver dans leur intégralité. L'enjeu est donc à la fois écologique et économique. Si la connaissance des grands fleuves a beaucoup progressé, il n'en reste pas moins que les forêts riveraines sont souvent négligées ou considérées pour leur seule valeur économique. Or, ces écosystèmes restent parmi les plus complexes et les plus riches en espèces de l'Europe, et leur renouvellement dépend étroitement du système pulsé du fleuve. Cet ouvrage est une synthèse des connaissances actuelles sur les forêts alluviales, largement illustré de photos et de schémas. Il s'adresse aux étudiants, aux chercheurs, aux enseignants, aux gestionnaires d'espaces naturels alluviaux, aux associations de protection de la nature et plus généralement à un public désireux de comprendre des écosystèmes exceptionnels.

This book was released on 2003 with total page 604 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world's freshwater resources are coming under growing pressure through such environmental hazards as human waste, urbanization, industrialization, and pesticides. The problems are exacerbated through drought in many parts of the world. The improvement of the water quality itself and access to it have been major concerns for politicians and development agencies for over a decade. First officially formulated at the Rio Earth Summit of 1992, they have been restated or expanded since then. The UN Millennium Declaration of 2000 transformed general guidelines into specific targets. The international community pledged "to halve by 2015 the proportion of people who are unable to reach, or to afford, safe drinking water" and "to stop the unsustainable exploitation of water resources, by developing water management strategies at the regional, national and local levels, which promote both equitable access and adequate supplies." Thus, ten years after Rio it is time to take stock. Based on the collective inputs of 23 United Nations agencies and convention secretariats, this Report offers a global overview of the state of the world's freshwater resources. It is part of an on-going assessment process to develop policies and help with their implementation as well as to measure any progress towards achieving sustainable use of water resources. Generously illustrated with more than 25 full-color global maps and numerous figures, the report reviews progress and trends and presents seven pilot case studies of river basins representing various social, economic and environmental settings: Lake Titicaca (Bolivia, Peru); Senegal river basin (Senegal, Mali, Mauritania, Guinea); Seine Normandy (France); Lake Peipsi/Chudskoe (Estonia, Russia); Ruhuna basin (Sri Lanka); Greater Tokyo region (Japan); and Chao Phraya (Thailand). It assesses progress in 11 challenge areas, including health, food, environment, shared water resources, cities, industry, energy, risk management, knowledge, valuing water and governance. Proposing methodologies and indicators for measuring sustainability, it lays the foundations for regular, system-wide monitoring and reporting by the UN, together with the development of standardized methodologies and data. With its comprehensive maps, glossary, references and coverage of a broad range of themes and examples of real-world river basins, the UN World Water Development Report will no doubt prove to be a most valuable reference work. Visit the United Nation's Water Portal for more information on the report and on the International Year of Freshwater 2003.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les actes de ces journées font état de réflexions, tant en France qu'à l'étranger, sur la restauration de marais, d'estuaires, de baies et de lagunes, incluant l'incidence sur les espèces et ressources. L'ouvrage regroupe une sélection des communications présentées devant un public de scientifiques, enseignants, aménageurs professionnels de la mer et conservateurs du littoral. Y sont présentés quelques grands chantiers (lagunes de Venise et de Tunis, baie du Mont-Saint-Michel, estuaire de Seine...), ainsi que des réalisations de tailles et de natures diverses. Des aspects particuliers de la biorestauration sont abordés au travers du traitement biologique des vases, ou celui des pollutions par hydrocarbures. Les aspects technico-économiques s'appuient sur des exemples accidentels ou naturels. Les aménageurs et les sociétés d'ingénierie écologique pourront trouver, dans ces documents, critères et méthodes d'évaluation scientifique pour quantifier les coûts de restauration d'écosystèmes en fonction de l'importance des " dégâts ".

Book excerpt: 'Living on the Edge' examines the function of the Sahel region of Africa as an important wintering area for long-distance migrant birds. It describes the challenges the birds have to cope with – climate change, of course, and rapid man-made habitat changes related to deforestation, irrigation and reclamation of wetlands. How have all these changes affected the birds, and have birds adapted to these changes? Can we explain the changing numbers of breeding birds in Europe by changes in the Sahel, or vice versa? Winner of the BB/BTO Best Bird Book Award 2010 The Jury commented: "It is a tremendous book in every department. It marks a step-change in our knowledge of the ecology of this critically important region in the European-African migration system and of the many species (familiar to us on their breeding grounds) that winter there. The authors combine the latest scientific information with vivid descriptions of landscapes and animals. Their book is richly illustrated with large numbers of drawings, maps and photographs by acclaimed experts. The wealth of coloured graphics has been particularly well thought out and encourages readers to delve into the figures and learn more about the region, rather than having the (all-too-common) opposite effect. Summing up, the jury praises not just the high quality of the texts, the information and the illustrations, but also the sheer pleasure of reading the book: "One of the key attributes of a good book is to be able to grip the reader's attention and transport him or her to another place. We feel confident that [Living on the edge] will have that effect."

Download or read book River Restoration written by Bertrand Morandi and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2021-09-20 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: River Restoration River restoration initiatives are now widespread across the world. The research efforts undertaken to support them are increasingly interdisciplinary, focusing on ecological, chemical, physical as well as societal issues. River Restoration: Political, Social, and Economic Perspectives provides a comprehensive overview of research in the field of river restoration in humanities and the social sciences. It illustrates how, in the last thirty years or so, such approaches have evolved and strengthened within the restoration sciences. The scientific community working in this domain has structured itself, often regionally and circumstantially, to critically assess and improve restoration policies and practices. As a research field, river restoration tackles three thematic axes: Human-river interactions – especially perceptions and practices of rivers, and how these interactions can be changed by restoration projects Political processes, with a particular interest in governance and decision-making, and a specific emphasis on the question of public participation in restoration projects Evaluation of the social and economic benefits of river restoration River Restoration: Political, Social, and Economic Perspectives encompasses these three topics, and more, to provide the reader with the most up-to-date and holistic view of this constantly evolving area. The book will be of particular interest to human and social scientists, biophysical scientists (hydrologists, geomorphologists, ecologists), environmental scientists, public policy makers, design or planning officers, and anyone working in the field of river restoration.
