This book investigates various kinds of climate change mitigation behaviour, which range from a general support of environmental policy to concrete energy-saving activities, in selected countries.
This book focuses on managing risks and building resilience to climate change, showcasing experiences from research, field projects and best practices to foster climate change adaptation in Eastern Europe that can be implemented elsewhere.
This book presents the concepts and tools of ice mechanics, together with examples of their application in the fields of glaciology, climate research and civil engineering in cold regions.
This book investigates the potential trade opportunity of climate friendly goods and technology (CFGT) in Asia and South Asia region, and uses a case study of India to clarify India's position on global warming and efforts to mitigate climate change impacts regionally and globally.
This book sheds light on the process in which the sub-state actor of Greenland has expanded its autonomy and strengthened its de jure participation in the national security of Denmark.
This books presents some of the most recent and advanced statistical methods used to analyse environmental and climate data, and addresses the spatial and spatio-temporal dimensions of the phenomena studied, the multivariate complexity of the data, and the necessity of considering uncertainty sources and propagation.
This edited volume is based on the best papers accepted for presentation during the 1st Springer Conference of the Arabian Journal of Geosciences (CAJG-1), Tunisia 2018.
This book explores the Sundarbans eco-region from a trans-boundary perspective, examining the cross-country interaction that helps planners to develop more efficient coastal zone planning for the delta.
This second edition provides extensive information on the attributes of the Natural Gas Hydrate (NGH) system, highlighting opportunities for the innovative use and modification of existing technologies, as well as new approaches and technologies that have the potential to dramatically lower the cost of NGH exploration and production.
This book provides an in-depth analysis of the securitisation of climate change in the US, Germany and Mexico and offers a rethinking of securitisation theory.

This book provides applications of wireless sensor networks (WSN) in environmental monitoring, with an emphasis on livestock disease detection and agricultural management in Africa to aid farmers.
Depuis les premières explorations du XXe siècle, la glaciologie est devenue une science à part entière, une science cruciale même, puisque c’est elle qui permet de suivre l’histoire du climat sur des milliers d’années.
La découverte d'un continent, désert de froid et de glace, la vie quotidienne des chercheurs dans ce milieu extrême, les trouvailles et les progrès d'une science, l'étude des glaces, qui permet de reconstituer le climat du passé et contribue à une meilleure compréhension de l'impact des hommes sur l'atmosphère de notre planète.
Extrait : "Dans les sociétés primitives, l'homme, placé presque sans défense devant les phénomènes de l'atmosphère, dut s'attacher surtout à l'observation de ceux qui le menaçaient, et qui, sur une terre à peine cultivée, se produisaient sans doute plus fréquemment qu'aujourd'hui.
This book is composed of 12 review papers invited for the Palmen Memorial Symposium on Extratropical Cyclones held in Helsinki, Finland, 29 August - 2 September 1988.
The present review of weather-satellite systems, data, and environmental applications encompasses the evolution of space-based weather observation, national observing capabilities, sensor data and processing, climate and meteorological applications, applications to land, agriculture, and ocean sciences, and some future directions.
This important work on boundary-layer measurements was originally published in 1986 and sponsored by the American Meteorological Society (AMS) in cooperation with the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR).
On the occasion of its 75th anniversary, the American Meteorological Society engaged a number of eminent pioneers and leading practitioners to write about the fields they helped develop.
This volume is an accont of early developments in meteorological research that brings to life the struggles of young pioneers-the trials and tribulations of developing new instruments, and the difficulty of sampling the atmosphere under challenging working conditions, to name just two.
