Growth of urbanisation in Yuksam: A study in Khangchendzonga biosphere reserve of Sikkim Himalayas/Gautam Kumar Bera. . The experiences of the past few decades have shown that industrialisation and economic development have impacted, strained and in many cases altered ecosystems. An assessment of biological diversity at the global level reveals that increasing human interventions in the ecosystems have accelerated the process of biodiversity loss and Asia is the most threatened continent. Conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity, hence, are fundamental to sustainable development. These considerations led to the origin of the concept of Biosphere Reserve which is designated to deal with important questions of reconciling the conservation of biodiversity quest for economic and social development and maintenance of associated cultural values. In India the efforts for management of biosphere reserves have largely been centered around protection of natural resources within biosphere reserves from the outside impacts. The concept of sustainable use of resources yet has not been taken up due to lack of location specific understanding of the process of resource management which, in turn is linked with the traditional value system of local communities. The present treatise on Khangchendzonga Biosphere Reserve aims at understanding elucidating and analysing the cultural diversity existing in the biosphere reserve in terms of societal perception of resources, livelihood pattern of people, and man, nature and spirit relationship against the backdrop of development and conservation.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. This book presents the autogenic and allogenic consequences of Himalayan floods on a spatio-temporal scale. Himalayan flooding has become an environmental issue in recent years. The monsoon, non-monsoon and hybrid floods are reactivated year after year, causing heart-rending human tragedy and emerging as a disaster over the entire Himalayan terrain, from higher altitudes to the foothills. Along with climatic consequences, engineering constructions, land-use practices, unscientific boulder excavation, and a lack of river buffer zone maintenance impressively govern the devastating layout of floods in different modes. The most geo-tectonically and ecologically sensitive Himalayan regions face natural calamities such as intense earthquakes, massive landslides, glacier lake outburst floods (GLOF), cloudbursts and flash floods occurring in a devastating form. Recent Himalayan floods have been characterized by a "deadly cocktail" of rapid climate change, geological fragility, and aggressive infrastructure development, causing multiple types of disasters, particularly during the monsoon season, and river morphological dynamics, such as channel shift, accelerated bank erosion, channel widening, and substantial sediment deposition in Himalayan rivers, may intensify the loss of human resources, ecology and the areas economy. However, the increase in flood frequency and coverage area has led to the rehabilitation of human beings. This book encompasses the geo-environmental and climatic consequences in flood genesis from the higher levels to the foothill areas of the Himalayan arc, and includes case studies as evidence of flood effects on channel morphology, ecology, human behaviour, rehabilitation and the economy. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Flood and risks associated with flood, are extremely alarming for every human being due to loss of life and belongings which is a nightmare well known to all. Disruption in the economy and society due to flood damage can inflict heavy loss and proper management is required to combat further damage. Microwave data has been used in the present work to compute flood vulnerability, damage and risk and clear distinction about all these terms have been thoroughly discussed in the book to elucidate and propose proper management strategies. Assessment of flood extent, depth and duration has been done from Radar images by remote sensing techniques to further compute the flood risk. The main purpose of the study is to identify the vulnerable objects in the path of flood damage and to quantify the loss and determining the value of assets. 136 pp. Englisch.…
