内容説明・目次

内容説明

As regions throughout the world face increasing ecological problems, the importance of developing scientific methods for sustainable development and of producing effective tools for the measurement and control of processes continues to grow. The tasks facing ecologists now require the collaboration of scientists, engineers, economists and other professionals such as those participating in the Second International Conference on Ecosystems and Sustainable Development (ECOSUD II) which took place in 1999. Featuring edited versions of the papers presented at ECOSUD II, this book covers the following topics: Application of Ecological Models in Environmental Management; Biodiversity; Climate Modelling and Ecosystems; Integrated Modelling; Environmental Risk; Sustainable Development Aspects; Lakustrine and Wetlands Ecosystems; Forestation Issues; Computational Modelling of Natural and Human Ecosystems; Natural Resource Management.
