Download or read book Environmental Impact IV written by J. Casares and published by WIT Press. This book was released on 2018-10-23 with total page 521 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Comprising a collection of papers from the 4th International Conference on Environmental and Economic Impact on Sustainable Development, the research studies included in this book consider the impact of economic constraints on the environment, taking into account the social aspects as well as the over-use of natural resources. The papers examine issues related to whether some forms of development are compatible with environmental protection, particularly in cases of possible serious contamination and toxicity. Uncontrolled development can result in damage to the environment in terms of the release of toxic substances and hazardous waste. Addressing problems of great importance, this book examines more constructive and progressive approaches to ensure sustainability. A major motivation is to learn from past failure, to avoid repeating similar mistakes, while attempting to prevent emerging threats to environmental and ecological systems. Fundamental to these concepts are the analysis of the inherent risk and the development of appropriate strategies.

Activities affecting ecosystem biodiversity, specific plant and animal species, and genetic resources are profiled, in addition to non-regulatory guidelines intended to assist producers implementing environmentally sustainable agricultural practices. Project descriptions include names of participants and contacts, along with relevant telephone numbers. Descriptions are arranged by categories: ecosystem-based projects (range and hay lands, croplands, land set-asides, wetlands, riparian areas, watersheds, woodlands; projects addressing such species as waterfowl, owls, hawks, deer, and fish; plant, crop, and livestock genetic diversity; and tools/information/awareness projects. Includes glossary and a directory of contact persons.

Download or read book Prevention and Management of Soil Erosion and Torrential Floods written by Milutinovi?, Slobodan and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2021-12-31 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soil erosion and torrential floods, as destructive processes, have serious implications on the economy, society, and environment. The severity of torrential floods lies in their sudden occurrence and high intensity, and hence, the defense against torrential floods is very complex and demanding. Much remains to be discovered about soil erosion and torrential floods prevention, management, legislation, practices, and solutions worldwide. Thus, a better understanding of various prevention and management developments on soil erosion and torrential floods across different contexts is needed to assess their impact on sustainability, especially in the changed climate conditions. Prevention and Management of Soil Erosion and Torrential Floods investigates the problems of erosion and torrential floods and opportunities for the prevention, management, and control of these destructive processes. It highlights the importance of the prevention and management practices of soil erosion and torrential floods with respect to the exchange of knowledge and best practices. Covering topics such as dam maintenance, wind erosion, and natural disasters, it is ideal for environmentalists, environmental engineers, crisis response specialists, policymakers, government officials, academicians, students, experts, practitioners, and researchers in the fields of soil erosion, torrential flood, environmental protection, sustainable development, engineering, and management.
