The study of environment is crucial for sustaining life on Earth, providing essential resources like clean air, water and food. However, human activities such as deforestation, industrialisation, and pollution have led to significant environmental issues. These include climate change, loss of biodiversity, depletion of natural resources, pollution etc. Resolving these problems requires global cooperation and action. Solutions involve transitioning to renewable energy sources, adopting sustainable practices in agriculture and industry, conserving and restoring ecosystems, reducing waste and pollution, and promoting environmental education and awareness. This book emphasising the critical importance of environmental issues and the measures needed for conservation alongwith covers the syllabus of undergraduate courses in Environmental Studies and Disaster Management. By addressing these subjects comprehensively, the book aims to educate students about the complexities of environmental challenges and equip them with knowledge and skills to contribute effectively to environmental conservation and disaster resilience efforts.

  • Water from a Transdisciplinary Perspective
    Ana Isabel Pereira Cardoso / Teresinha M. Gonçalves
    Life in cities has distanced human beings from nature and made it difficult to understand the ecology of life dependent on the environment. Urban water collection and distribution processes contribute significantly to the fragmentation of knowledge and the vital recognition of the water cycle. Without the effective participation of the subject in environmental actions, it is no...

  • Modeling Populations of Adaptive Individuals
    Bret C. Harvey / Steven F. Railsback
    Ecologists now recognize that the dynamics of populations, communities, and ecosystems are strongly affected by adaptive individual behaviors. Yet until now, we have lacked effective and flexible methods for modeling such dynamics. Traditional ecological models become impractical with the inclusion of behavior, and the optimization approaches of behavioral ecology cannot be use...

  • Physiological Ecology
    Carlos Martínez del Rio / William H. Karasov
    Unlocking the puzzle of how animals behave and how they interact with their environments is impossible without understanding the physiological processes that determine their use of food resources. But long overdue is a user-friendly introduction to the subject that systematically bridges the gap between physiology and ecology. Ecologists--for whom such knowledge can help clarif...
  • Critical Transitions in Nature and Society
    Marten Scheffer
    How do we explain the remarkably abrupt changes that sometimes occur in nature and society--and can we predict why and when they happen? This book offers a comprehensive introduction to critical transitions in complex systems--the radical changes that happen at tipping points when thresholds are passed. Marten Scheffer accessibly describes the dynamical systems theory behind cr...
