Coastal Zone Management: Global Perspectives, Regional Processes, Local Issues
Editat de Mu Ramkumar, Arthur James, David Menier, Kumaraswamy Ken Limba Engleză Paperback – 21 noi 2018
The global coast has faced the force of both climate hange and natural disasters, which continue to result in the loss of human life and degradation of quality of the coastal environment. Coastal Zone Management: Global Perspectives, Regional Processes, Local Issues provides the latest developments and key strategies to tackle this in a single comprehensive volume. It is an essential reference for scientists and researchers well-read on coastal zones, as well as those new to the subject.
- Presents a unique compilation of contributed chapters, including a focus on methodology, case studies, stategy, and policy, acting as a one-source reference for students, teachers, researchers and administrators.
- Discusses challenges at local levels in order to help interpret regional processes that have global ramifications.
- Provides a database for scientists working on research topics related to coastal zone management.
