Buch. Condizione: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This monograph examines contemporary environmental challenges facing Nepal, this landlocked country's representativeness in thewider South Asian context is both distinct and generalizable. In large part, this is because ofits extremes ofphysiographical structure- plains, hill ranges, mountainous massifs - and wide range ofaltitudinal terrains, which represent and replicate South Asian and East Asian continental conditions differing as markedly as humid tropical lowlands, sub-tropical hill ranges and temperate tosub-arctic mountainous environments. Associated forest regimes, in which deforestation and reforestation patterns have evolved in recent times, and differing densities ofsettlement and cleared agricultural landscapes in each ofthese altitudinal zones, add totheenvironmental diversity ofNepal. Associated fauna and exotic species are in various states ofendangerment especially Bengal tigers, one horned rhinos, wild elephants, crocodile, musk deer, and peasants, toname a few- so that their forested and mountainous habitats as 'Wild Life Reserves' also deserve our attention, and are featured in this monograph's remit.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -This book will utilize many empirical examples of environmental cases spanning the diverse landscapes of Nepal to demonstrate how useful information GIS tools can be in effective decision making and record keeping in such a problematic South Asian 'developing country'Through various examples, this book will demonstrate how possible it is to save planning time for development engineers who often spend 40% to 60% of their time while validating information. GIS can reduce such project delivery time by 20% to 50%This book presents cases how GIS can help in the improvement of data management through a better understanding of spatial phenomena. It will present illustrated examples how GIS application incorporates mathematical methods to utilize locational information to connect various disciplines, such as biology, epidemiology, ethnology, geography, sociology and statisticsThrough the uses of GIS, remote sensing, GPS, and statistical procedures, this book brings together different applications of spatial analysis methods for understanding geographic variation of certain entities while considering various spatial effectsThis book also does certain spatial analysis, modelling and simulation techniques for solving location problems and informing spatial allocation and deployment of resourcesIt also presents case studies of participatory forest management using a spatial-temporal model. Furthermore, this book analyzes the paths of forest degradation and regeneration and villagers' utility before and after an access restriction. These approaches will help to improve both forest quality and villagers' livelihoods. Our examples presented in this book will be useful worldwide both in academics and real world problem solvingSpringer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 796 pp. Englisch.…
