Land Degradation and Socio-Economic Development : A Field-based Perspective, Paperback / softback Book

Land Degradation and Socio-Economic Development : A Field-based Perspective Paperback / softback

Part of the Advances in Asian Human-Environmental Research series

Paperback / softback

Description

This book offers an overview of recent literature on land degradation and its interrelationship with socio-economic development processes in the developing world.

It provides an in-depth analysis of land degradation as a physical process, with an emphasis on the local and regional scales.

The volume contains a detailed case-study of ravine formation processes in the Chambal valley, a unique but least studied part of the world.

Using multi-scale and multi-disciplinary approaches, and combining spatial socio-economic data with remote sensing data, this book provides an in-depth analysis of the causes and implications of land degradation.
