Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este libro contiene una panorámica sobre el amplio horizonte profesional que se abre ante el titulado (ingeniero o licenciado) en medio ambiente, así como ante aquellas otras titulaciones que deseen incorporarse a este pujante campo de actividad; muestra el "qué hacer y el cómo hacerlo" en materia de planificación, ejecución y gestión de las actividades de desarrollo, es decir, de lo que conforma el mundo de la consultoría y de la ingeniería ambiental; elaboración de planes, programas, proyectos, estudios, instrumentos específicos de control ambiental, dirección/ejecución de la obra y gestión ambiental de actividades en marcha, en sus múltiples modalidades. La intervención del profesional del medio ambiente en estos instrumentos de acción puede ser individual, pero fundamentalmente se hace formando parte de equipos de expertos en otros campos, a los que aporta el conocimiento, los principios, la sensibilidad y el compromiso que caracteriza al medio ambiente. El libro pretende combinar de forma equilibrada los contenidos conceptuales, metodológico y técnico a lo largo de tres partes: la primera se inicia con una tipología sobre los trabajos profesionales, para presentar después la filosofía con que deben ser encarados y los elementos técnicos comunes al contenido de todos ellos; diagnóstico de una situación y propuestas de futuro. La segunda parte desarrolla los instrumentos generales para planificar el desarrollo sostenible: planes y programas, para proyectar y ejecutar las actividades que lo hacen realidad: proyectos y dirección de obra, y para aplicar los instrumentos específicos de control y gestión ambiental: preventivos, correctores y curativos; para cada uno de ellos aporta los cuatro elementos básicos que determinan su elaboración: concepto, regulación legal, metodología y técnicas. La tercera parte presenta los elementos de apoyo y complementarios: programación, aseguramiento de la calidad, prevención de riesgos laborales y preparación de ofertas relativos a la actividad profesional en general y a los instrumentos anteriores en particular, y concluye con un capítulo sobre deontología profesional.

Download or read book River Deltas Research written by Andrew J. Manning and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2022-10-12 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: River deltas are among the most sensitive and widely exploited territories habitats on Earth. Although predominantly shallow aquatic environments, river deltas are extremely important environments socioeconomically and their usage places ever-increasing stresses on these habitats, especially where there is any anthropogenic involvement. The effective governance and administration of river delta regions often requires an intricate scientific understanding of the various contributary natural processes. River Deltas Research - Recent Advances is a book that draws on the most recent world-class scientific research on river delta topics including climate change, water quality, geomorphology, anthropogenic stresses, water quality, sedimentation, ecosystems, and many more. The research was carried out by researchers who specialise in the river deltas and related issues.
Download or read book Natural Arsenic in Groundwater written by J. Bundschuh and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2004-03-01 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arsenic contamination has become a global phenomenon. With the development of advanced technological detection tools, more geographical areas have been identified. The people most affected are those in the poorer socio-economic groups. The research articles in this book have been contributed by scientists working in areas severely affected by these difficulties. The book includes an assessment of environmental health risks and economic impacts, and the technologies available for dealing with the problem. Written in a straightforward style, the book is designed to update knowledge on the dynamics of natural arsenic from the aquifers through groundwater to the food chain. It outlines efficient techniques for arsenic removal and inform administrators, policy makers and company executives, and aims to increase awareness of the problem.
Download or read book Indigenous Amazonia Regional Development and Territorial Dynamics written by Walter Leal Filho and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-08-04 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together a valuable collection of case studies and conceptual approaches that outline the present state of Amazonia in the 21st century. The many problems are described and the benefits, as well as the achievements of regional development are also discussed. The book focuses on three themes for discussion and recommendations: indigenous peoples, their home (the forest), and the way(s) to protect and sustain their natural home (biodiversity conservation). Using these three themes this volume offers a comprehensive critical review of the facts that have been the reality of Amazonia and fills a gap in the literature.The book will appeal to scholars, professors and practitioners. An outstanding group of experienced researchers and individuals with detailed knowledge of the proposed themes have produced chapters on an array of inter-related issues to demonstrate the current situation and future prospects of Amazonia. Issues investigated and debated include: territorial management; indigenous territoriality and land demarcation; ethnodevelopment; indigenous higher education and capacity building; natural resource appropriation; food security and traditional knowledge; megadevelopmental projects; indigenous acculturation; modernization of Amazonia and its regional integration; anthropogenic interventions; protected areas and conservation; political ecology; postcolonial issues, and the sustainability of Amazonia.
Download or read book Towards Green Campus Operations written by Walter Leal Filho and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-05-14 with total page 896 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Matters related to sustainable development, albeit global in nature, are best handled at the local level. This line of thinking is particularly true to the higher education context, where the design and implementation of sustainability initiatives on campuses can demonstrate how a given university translates the principles of sustainable development into practice, at the institutional level. Yet, there is a paucity of specific events where a dialogue among sustainability academics and practitioners concerned with a) research, projects b) teaching and c) planning and infra-structure leading to campus greening takes place, so as to allow a transdisciplinary and cross-sectoral exchange of ideas and experiences on the issues, matters and problems at hand. It is against this background that this book has been prepared. It is one of the outcomes of the “First Symposium on Sustainability in University Campuses” (SSUC-2017) organised by the University of São Paulo in Brazil, Manchester Metropolitan University (UK), the Research and Transfer Centre “Applications of Life Sciences” of the Hamburg University of Applied Sciences (Germany), and the Inter-University Sustainable Development Research Programme (IUSDRP). This book showcases examples of campus-based research and teaching projects, regenerative campus design, low-carbon and zero carbon buildings, waste prevention, and resilient transport, among others. It also demonstrates the role of campuses as platforms for transformative social learning and research, and explores the means via which university campuses can be made more sustainable. The aims of this publication are as follows: i. to provide universities with an opportunity to obtain information on campus greening and sustainable campus development initiatives from round the world; ii. to document and promote information, ideas and experiences acquired in the execution of research, teaching and projects on campus greening and design, especially successful initiatives and good practice; iii. to introduce methodological approaches and projects which aim to integrate the topic of sustainable development in campus design and operations. This book entails contributions from researchers and practitioners in the field of campus greening and sustainable development in the widest sense, from business and economics, to arts, administration and environment.
