Soft cover. Condizione: New. The book discusses in detail about disaster communication and early warning systems with all requisites and imperatives. It sets the conceptual background of disaster management and impending paradigm shift from response and relief centric to proactive preparedness centric approach, with references to international strategies on disaster management and climate change adaptation such as Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction, Sustainable Development Goals and Paris Climate Agreement. The book elicits systematic knowledge base on the strategic role played by ICT as an enabler for disaster management, disaster and climate change early warning systems, disaster communication setup need analysis, existing as well as futuristic technological trends. It does prognostic analysis of existing early warning systems and disaster communication facilities in India; and suggests pragmatic long-term and short-term solutions. The contents and contexts are important not only for India but for other developing and under developed countries in the world. This book may be considered as a good reference document on the subject matter.…

Hardcover. Condizione: New. Condizione sovraccoperta: New. 1st Edition. Contents: Foreword. Preface. 1. Introduction/N.H. Rao. 2. Remote sensing and GIS application for input management for crops/Sesha Sai M.V.R., Ramana K.V., Karun K.C. and Kameswara Rao, S.V.C. 3. Application of remote sensing and GIS in farm level soil resource mapping/S. Srinivas, A. Natarajan, S. Dharumarajan M. Lalitha L.G.K. Naidu and Dipak Sarkar. 4. Remote sensing and GIS for sustainable farm production/K.P. Ragunath and R. Sivasamy. 5. Whether the changing of cropping pattern in Andhra Pradesh leads to crop diversification or crop concentration: evidences using GIS/Geetha Mohan and Hirotaka Matsuda. 6. Applications of remote sensing and GIS for crop condition assessment/R. Krishnan and M.R. Srinivasan. . The contents of the book are of a high quality and flow very smoothly from the characterization of biophysical resources and land use systems to the farming systems level and finally culminate at the catchment/watershed level. The modelling studies are included to update the current trends, while vulnerability studies provide complete set of information with respect to future action plan. The authors of the various chapters have also displayed high skills in development of customized GIS tools of learning and knowledge sharing. This book would stand out as an example of knowledge sharing efforts in the area of geo-informatics and the use of GIS technologies for their effective and efficient management of natural resources.…

Modern tools and techniques for xenobiotic monitoring. 28. Open source seed network. 29. A review on strategies for community-based biodiversity conservation (CBC). In the present global scenario, biodiversity management draws the highest attention among researchers and development functionaries. The chapter's carries information on current status of plant and animal biodiversity, indigenous practices, landraces, traditional knowledge and gene bank conservation. Detailed account has been presented on major agricultural crops such as wheat, rice, maize, sorghum, organic pigeon pea, millets, niger and cotton. Chapters on as to how can underutilize bioresources be brought under commercial umbrella. Sustainability cannot be ensured without animal bioresources, therefore chapters have been included on cattle, Indian livestock, poultry, native chickens, camelids etc., and also on pollinator fauna. Chapters are included on monitoring methods for presence of adventitious presence of transgenes and xenobiotic monitoring. Community is the central point in sustainable agrobiodiversity management. The awareness, community strategies, social equity, conservation of local practices and community participation are the key words. The chapters have been included on indigenous practices for seed storage, conservation of traditional water tanks, tribal farmers' knowledge and practices, role of women in conservation, organic practices, community seed networks, community p.…
