Important information regarding the structures of organisms has emerged recently due to a change in the environment. Alterations in ecological and social systems because of environmental changes will hopefully result in a bend towards sustainability; with legislative and government entities reacting to varied policy and management issues concerning the building, management and restoration of social-ecological systems on a regional and global scale. Unraveling is required at the regional level, where physical features of the landscape, biological systems and human institutions connect. This book functions to disperse theoretical and applied studies on the correlation between human and natural systems from a multidisciplinary research outlook on global environmental change. Interdisciplinary approaches, long-term research, and a practical answer to the expanding intensity of problems related to changes in environment are combined within the book, and it is intended for a wider target audience ranging from students to specialists.
