This book was released on 2017-03-01 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rapid depletion and degradation of species in diverse ecosystems and the implications of this for human welfare have the cause for increasing concern. Biodiversity or variability among living organisms and the ecological complexes of which they are a part, is essential for ensuring the basic ecological services and resources necessary for sustaining human welfare. The loss of biodiversity is therefore, considered one of the most serious problem threatening the world today. An understanding of the ecological implications of the increasing loss of bodiversity, not to mention of the economic implications, has therefore, became vital. A biodiversity loss is irreversible. A calls for increased caution in our efforts to convert and exploit natural resources. Some minimal level of biodiversity is necessary to main ecological functioning, which in turn is necessary for generating the biological resources on which human welfare depends. Needless to emphasive that substantial biodiversity loss occurs due to forest clearing and degradation, leading to the need for assessing biodiversity in different ecosystems. Keeping these aspects in mind, the present volume highlights biodiversity in different cropping systems besides that the impact of cold and hot deserts. Selection of the topics in the various chapters is essentially because of the experience of the authors in the field of biodiversity.

This book was released on 2023-12-27 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are delighted to share with you this exploration into the intricate world of environmental management—a subject that lies at the intersection of human activity, ecological systems, and the pressing need for sustainable solutions. This book is the culmination of our collective passion for understanding and addressing the environmental challenges that define our era. It is our sincere hope that the insights, strategies, and perspectives presented within these pages will not only inform but inspire action towards a more sustainable and resilient future. As authors, our journey began with a shared commitment to shed light on the complexities of environmental management. We recognized the need for a resource that not only outlines the challenges we face but also offers tangible and practical solutions. "Sustainable Horizons" is our response to this imperative—a comprehensive guide that draws from our combined experiences, expertise, and a shared belief in the power of informed environmental stewardship. In crafting this book, we sought to create a narrative that transcends disciplinary boundaries. Environmental management is inherently interdisciplinary, and we have endeavored to reflect this reality in our approach. Each chapter is a mosaic of perspectives, blending scientific insights, real-world case studies, and a forward-thinking vision that anticipates the evolving landscape of environmental challenges. While rooted in research and scholarship, "Sustainable Horizons" is not meant to be an academic tome accessible only to experts. Instead, we have strived to make the content accessible to a broad audience—from students eager to explore the field to seasoned professionals seeking innovative solutions, and to every individual with a genuine interest in contributing to a sustainable future. Real-world examples are integral to our approach. By examining successful environmental management initiatives, we aim to highlight the transformative potential of well-informed and well-executed strategies. These examples serve as beacons of hope, illustrating that positive change is not only possible but already underway in various corners of the globe. As you embark on this journey through "Sustainable Horizons," we encourage you to approach it not merely as a passive reader but as an active participant. Each chapter is an invitation to engage, reflect, and consider how the principles and practices outlined can be applied in your own context. Environmental sustainability is a collective responsibility, and this book is a testament to the belief that positive change begins with individual understanding and action. We invite you to join us in exploring the horizons of a sustainable future—one where the delicate balance between humanity and the environment is not just acknowledged but actively nurtured. Thank you for being a part of this journey. May the insights within these pages spark new ideas, fuel your commitment to environmental stewardship, and contribute to the positive transformation our planet so urgently needs. With warm regards, Dr. Omraj Shyam Deshmukh I Dr. Kulbhushan Dhyaneshwar Meghe Surendrasingh Samarsingh Gaharwar I Dr. Mukul Abasaheb Burghate Authors

India is an agriculture-based economy, and the next section elaborates on the Agro-ecosystem, its management and techniques of sustainable organic farming. The fifth section of the book on Forest and Wildlife, deals with the serious issues like deforestation, its effects on the environment and the wildlife, and touches upon the most sensitive issue of various animals getting extinct. The next section covering Waste Management (industrial waste, e-waste and solid waste) discusses the legal aspects of hazardous wastes. Environment Legislation, the proceeding section, is on environmental laws, International treaties and green marketing. Finally the eighth section, which focuses on the Ethical Aspects of Environment highlights the important issues like environmental ethics, and how environment is treated in various religions. The book is interspersed with real-life cases to give the topics a reasoned approach.

Download or read book Plant Growth Promoting Microorganisms of Arid Region written by Ritu Mawar and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-03-01 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited book aims to focus on microbial diversity in arid lands and deserts versus specific microbial assemblages associated with plants. The book explains ecological drivers that shape this diversity, how plant-associated microbiomes are selected, and their biotechnological potential are discussed. Diversity and functional redundancy of these associated PGPM make them very active in supporting plant improvement, health and resistance to drought, salt and other stresses, and these dimensions will be explored in this book. Implementing proper biotechnological applications of the arid and desert-adapted PGPM constitutes a sizeable challenge, and the book attempts to take up that challenge and help researchers in this field to gain a detailed understanding of PGPM from arid ecosystems. This book serves as a handbook for research workers, teachers, postgraduate students and extension personnel, other development workers, and policy planners engaged in arid zone development.
