Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Since the beginning of civilization man has suffered from the effects of natural hazards. These create chaos in society, for they disrupt the order and routine of civilized life. Among these disasters we find floods, which have been more frequent and devastating as time has passed. It is because of this that their study is necessary.India is very much vulnerable to a large number of natural hazards like floods, cyclones, droughts, earthquakes and landslides. Many of these hazards very often turn into disasters bringing an enormous loss of life and property. 23 of the 36 states and union territories in the country are subject to floods and 40 million hectares of land, roughly one-eighth of the country's geographical area, is prone to floods.The book deals with flood hazards management with a community-based approach. The book explains how to go for a vulnerability analysis and risk assessment at a micro-level on a regional basis for community-based response. The book makes use of a geographical framework using remote sensing and GIS as application tools in decision making for disaster management. It also deals with the SWOT analysis for community-based intervention based on the existing policy guidelines. This will be a multidisciplinary reference book for flood hazards management across various disciplines of physical, social and managerial sciences involved in disaster management. This book will be most useful for students, faculty members, and researchers and programmed managers from the disciplines of Geography and allied sciences, public administration and governance, sociology, natural hazards studies and disaster management.…

In recent times, humanity finds itself in a race against time to tackle the severe environmental crisis we face. Climate change, which is largely attributed to human activity, poses a significant challenge to social, political, and economic systems worldwide. As governments and scientists in the field acknowledge, it is the most pressing environmental threat of the 21st century. The earth's average temperature has risen by approximately 0.60C over the past century due to human activity, and greenhouse gas emissions are likely to cause a temperature increase of between 1.4 and 5.80C this century, depending on the efforts made to address climate change. Environmental problems manifest in various ways in both developed and developing countries, with some issues affecting regions globally while each country also grapples with unique developmental and environmental challenges. Furthermore, regional and local concerns demand immediate attention. The transfer of technology from developed countries to Third World countries has raised environmental concerns, as inadequate management has led to environmental degradation. Although human ingenuity and scientific progress have contributed to advancements in agriculture, irrigation, mining, industries, transportation, forestry, and land management, these pursuits have often disrupted the natural environment. As awareness of the adverse effects of developmental activities grows, people are actively seeking ways to mitigate these effects by adopting methods and technologies that promote sustainable development.…
