Land Use Intensification : Effects on Agriculture, Biodiversity, and Ecological Processes Paperback / softback
Edited by David Lindenmayer, Saul Cunningham, Andrew Young
Paperback / softback
Description
By 2050, the global population of humans is predicted to increase by 35%.
Approximately 70% more food may be required, and this will take place against a backdrop of 15-40% land degradation.
This book examines land use intensification and biodiversity conservation and its impacts.
It also discusses whether suites of species, and/or functional groups of taxa will either benefit or suffer from land use intensification and whether it is possible to make robust predictions of biotic responses across landscapes, regions, and continents.
