This book was released on 1996 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There still is much uncertainty about the timing, the rate and the magnitude of climate change in the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Basin (GLSLB); yet concern for potential impacts remains. The GLSLB contains 20 percent of the world's fresh water and is home to over 42.5 million people. It is a region rich in human and natural resources, with diverse economic activities and complex infrastructures. Significant economic restructuring and environmental changes are underway. Governments, industries and other Basin interests will have the added complication of managing the multiple activities within the Basin under the exacerbating conditions of potential climate change. This challenge must be addressed: first through research, and then by applying the research to all levels of management within the Basin.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Basin project is a multi-year undertaking that is part of the Canadian Federal Green Plan initiative. The goal of the project is to conduct interdisciplinary, integrated studies on the physical, biological, social, and economic impacts of climate change and variability for the area. Regional adaptation strategies to deal with a changing climate will also be explored. This report summarizes the discussions held by the working groups on water management, ecosystem health, land use and management, and human health. It also provides abstracts for papers presented on the project; on information in the decision-making and policy-making process for forestry, water resources, agriculture, and climate change; the state of understanding of climate-sensitive issues; and integration of the regional and economic impacts of climate change.

Download or read book Human Ecology And Climatic Change written by David L. Peterson and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2020-03-06 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Far North, a land of extreme weather and intense beauty, is the only region of North America whose ecosystems have remained reasonably intact. Humans are newcomers there and nature predominates. As is widely known, recent changes in the Earth's atmosphere have the potential to create rapid climatic shifts in our life-time and well into the future. These changes, a product of southern industrial society, will have the greatest impact on ecosystems at northern latitudes, which until now have remained largely undisturbed. In this fragile balance, as terrestrial and aquatic habitats change, animal and human populations will be irrevocably altered.
