ISBN: 3319194054
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 183
Book Description
This volume provides new insights and conceptual understandings of the human and gender dimension of vulnerability in relation to the dynamics of tenure reforms in the dryland forests of Asia and Africa. The book analyzes the interaction between biophysical factors such as climate variability (e.g. droughts) with socio-political processes (e.g. new institutions and authority) and gender dimensions at various temporal and spatial scales. The book presents a number of case studies based on empirical research on forest tenure reform and it consequences on forest-dependent people. In particular, it highlights the interaction between legal, policy and institutional reform and the inclusion and/or exclusion of local people from deriving benefits from forest resources in the drylands. The book focuses on the questions how land tenure reform and natural resource governance impacts upon marginal groups (along individual, collective and gender dimensions); how do forest-dependent people prepare for and respond to vulnerability; and what is the effect of forest tenure policy reform on the human rights, gender and citizenship issues in relation to the use and management of forest resources and on conflict in forest zones. These issues are approached from the perspective of marginalized groups (gender and social diversity such as indigenous peoples and herders) in vulnerable dryland forests with a high risk of being exposed to climate variability.

Book Description
Volume III of the Six Volume Remote Sensing Handbook, Second Edition, is focused on agriculture; food security; vegetation; phenology; rangelands; soils; and global biomass modeling, mapping, and monitoring using multi-sensor remote sensing. It discusses the application of remote sensing in agriculture systems analysis, phenology, cropland mapping and modeling, terrestrial vegetation studies, physically based models, food and water security, precision farming, crop residues, global view of rangelands, and soils. This thoroughly revised and updated volume draws on the expertise of a diverse array of leading international authorities in remote sensing and provides an essential resource for researchers at all levels interested in using remote sensing. It integrates discussions of remote sensing principles, data, methods, development, applications, and scientific and social context. FEATURES Provides the most up-to-date comprehensive coverage of remote sensing science in agriculture, vegetation, and soil studies. Discusses and analyzes data from old and new generations of satellites and sensors spread across 60 years. Provides comprehensive assessment of modeling, mapping, and monitoring agricultural crops, vegetation, and soils from wide array of sensors, methods, and techniques. Includes numerous case studies on advances and applications at local, regional, and global scales. Introduces advanced methods in remote sensing such as machine learning, cloud computing, and AI. Highlights scientific achievements over the last decade and provides guidance for future developments. This volume is an excellent resource for the entire remote sensing and GIS community. Academics, researchers, undergraduate and graduate students, as well as practitioners, decision makers, and policymakers, will benefit from the expertise of the professionals featured in this book, and their extensive knowledge of new and emerging trends.
