Natural Resource Monitoring, Planning and Management Based on Advanced Programming
Author: Arun Pratap Mishra
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 9789819728787
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
This book focuses on cloud-based platforms, advanced programming, machine learning models and programming approaches to assess water and other natural resources, flood impact, land use land cover (LULC), global forest change, global forest canopy height and pantropical nation-level carbon stock, among other areas. Sustainable management of natural resources is urgently needed, given the immense anthropogenic pressure on the environment and the accelerated change in climatic conditions of the earth; therefore, the ability to monitor natural resources precisely and accurately is increasingly important. To meet this demand, new and advanced remote sensing tools and techniques are continually being developed to monitor and manage natural resources effectively. Remote sensing platforms use various sensors to record, measure and monitor even minor variations in the earth's surface features as well as atmospheric constituents. This book shows how environmental and ecological knowledge and satellite-based information can be effectively combined to address a wide array of current natural resource management needs. Each chapter covers the different aspects of a remote sensing approach to effectively monitor natural resources and provide a platform for decision making and policy. The book is a valuable resource for researchers, scientists, NGOs and academicians working on climate change, environmental sciences, agriculture engineering, remote sensing and GIS, natural resources management, hydrology, soil sciences, agricultural microbiology, plant pathology and agronomy.

Resource Managers' Technical Review
Author: Center for Conservation Research & Technology (U.S.)
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Biodiversity conservation
Languages : en
Pages : 66
Book Description
In 1981, the U.S. Army initiated a program with the JHU Applied Physics Laboratory to investigate the potential of developing small platform transmitter terminals (PTTs) to be mounted on animals and tracked by the French-U.S., Argos satellite system. The program was designed to provide a capability that could track migratory birds and other widely ranging species anywhere on Earth. Since the inception of the program, miniaturization has led to the commercialization and fielding of PTTs that weight less than 20gm and can interface with an array of sensors. Beginning in FY 94 the DoD's Legacy Resource Management Program and SERDP funded related projects to develop, demonstrate, promote and improve satellite tracking and monitoring systems for resource management and conservation on military lands. These projects were planned and executed in parallel. This Resource Managers' Technical Review summarizes: the Legacy/SERDP projects; the current state of how these systems and capabilities have been effectively used on a global scale; Current and planned innovative applications of these technologies for resource management on federal and private lands; and Future development opportunities.

Down to Earth
Author: National Research Council
Publisher: National Academies Press
ISBN: 0309084784
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 170
Book Description
In 1992, world leaders adopted Agenda 21, the work program of the 1992 U.N. Conference on Environment and Development. This landmark event provided a political foundation and action items to facilitate the global transition toward sustainable development. The international community marked the tenth anniversary of this conference in Johannesburg, South Africa, in August 2002. Down to Earth, a component of the U.S. State Department's "Geographic Information for Sustainable Development" project for the World Summit, focuses on sub-Saharan Africa with examples drawn from case-study regions where the U.S. Agency for International Development and other agencies have broad experience. Although African countries are the geographic focus of the study, the report has broader applicability. Down to Earth summarizes the importance and applicability of geographic data for sustainable development and draws on experiences in African countries to examine how future sources and applications of geographic data could provide reliable support to decision-makers as they work towards sustainable development. The committee emphasizes the potential of new technologies, such as satellite remote-sensing systems and geographic information systems, that have revolutionized data collection and analysis over the last decade.
