Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These proceedings contain full-length papers, extended abstracts, and research abstracts of oral presentations and posters given at the Seventh Interagency Conference on Research in the Watersheds (7th ICRW)— Enhancing Landscapes for Sustainable Intensification and Watershed Resiliency, jointly hosted by the USDA-ARS and the University of Georgia, Tifton, GA, and held virtually November 16–19, 2020.The 7th ICRW focused on the science and management of increased human and natural drivers of watershed change throughout the United States. The conference was structured to present, and address, key scientific and management issues faced by watershed managers and scientists throughout the U.S. Research was presented by Federal, State, and local scientists, academics, and non-governmental organizations focusing on managing complex watershed systems and watershed components (e.g., streams, rivers, lakes, estuaries, etc.). Thematic areas included watershed modeling, responses to climate related change, management strategies, integration of science and management, water quality and quantity, long-term agroecosystem science, as well as ecosystem-specific themes such as coastal plain watersheds and wetlands. The conference was hosted by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), Agricultural Research Service (ARS), with material and in-kind support from the following organizations: Consortium of Universities for the Advancement of Hydrologic Science, Inc. (CUAHSI), the USDA Forest Service, the U.S. Geological Survey, the U.S. Bureau of Land Management, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, NASA, the U.S. Department of Energy, and the University of Georgia. The 7th ICRW was built on the foundation laid by the previous hosting organizations: USDA Agricultural Research Service (2003), USDA Forest Service (2006 and 2015), U.S. Geological Survey and CUAHSI (2009), the Bureau of Land Management and National Park Service (2011), and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (2018). The 8th ICRW will be hosted by the U.S. Geological Survey in Corvallis, Oregon. The conference is planned for June 2023.

Download or read book The New Generation of Watershed Management Programmes and Projects written by and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2006 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the occasion of the International Year of Mountains-2002, FAO and its partners undertook a large-scale assessment and global review of the current status and future trends of integrated and participatory watershed management. The overall objectives were to promote the exchange and dissemination of experiences in implementing watershed management projects in the decade from 1990 to 2000 and to identify the vision for a new generation of watershed management programmes and projects. This resource book represents a summary and critical analysis of the rich discussions and vast materials that emerged during the review, as well as the review's findings and recommendations. It presents the state of the art in watershed management, promotes further reflection and creative thinking and proposes new ideas and approaches for future watershed management programmes and projects. This publication has been written primarily for field-level watershed management practitioners and local decision-makers involved in watershed management at the district or municipality level. It will also be a useful source of information for other readers such as senior officers and consultants specialized in other areas, evaluators, policy-makers and students of watershed management

This book was released on 2015-12-01 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sustainable management of forest resources became an indispensable prerequisite for any policy addressing the actual and future challenges of globabl development. Forests and other tree resources are essential for the provision of ecosystem services and contribute largely to future food security, livelihoods and ecosystem stability. Forests and any other trees outside the forest play a relevant role all three great UN conventions (on Climate Change, on Biodiversity, and on Combatting Desertification). The policy processes to implement the measures in these conventions on sub-national, national, regional and international level are extremely complex. This complexity comes, among other factors, from a blend of different sectoral and national interests, from a large number of scientifically not yet entirely resolved issues and a wide range of different biophysical, social, cultural and political conditions all over the world.

Download or read book Landscapes and Landforms of the Horn of Africa written by Paolo Billi and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-09-30 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on regions for which until now the geomorphology was very poorly studied and relatively unknown. Nevertheless, the landforms and landscapes of the Horn of Africa are highly attractive, diverse and in a few cases unique, since they span very different environments, from highland plateaus and mountains to lowlands (even below sea level) and coastlines with a high degree of diversity and from monsoon to arid climate conditions. The main topics addressed in the book include the links between the geological evolution and the current large scale geomorphology of the Horn of Africa; the large differences between the highlands and lowlands climate, river hydrology and their variation through time within a climate change perspective. This part of the world was home of the very first hominids. The landscape in which they lived and evolved throughout the Pleistocene is described in comparison with the arid and inhospitable, though immensely scenic, environment of today. Perennial and ephemeral rivers with very different morphology, processes, and hydrology drain the area, and, in combination with the past and recent uplift, substantially contributed to provide the region with peculiar landscapes and landforms. Long lasting weathering and erosion processes result in a typical inselberg landscape such as the Bur region, or the currently exposed flatland of old peneplain surfaces. Their changes through time, induced by both natural and anthropogenic factors, are addressed by a couple of case studies. Though the region has few inhabitants, they had to struggle to find their livelihood in a land that offers poor resources. This resulted in landscape change and land degradation. Examples of human impact on the landscape are presented at different scales. This book provides readers interested in geography and geomorphology with essential scientific and educational information on the Landscapes and Landforms of Eritrea, Djibouti and Somalia through simple, though scientifically, rigorous texts illustrated with several color maps and photos. One main prerogative of this book is therefore to give an insight into a region of the world where, for geographical and historical constraints, geomorphological investigation was very limited, thus enriching its intrinsic informative value.
