Environmental Change in Mountains and Uplands
ISBN: 9780340706367 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 188 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Mountain environments are often perceived to be austere, isolated, and inhospitable. In fact, these areas are of immense value to mankind, providing direct life support to close to 10 percent of the world's population and sustaining a wide variety of species - many of which are endemic to this environment.
'Environmental Change in Mountains and Uplands' provides detailed account of the fragile and marginal physical and socio-economic systems which make up the world's mountain regions. Discussing the direct and indirect impacts of human interference on environmental... Mountain environments are often perceived to be austere, isolated, and inhospitable.

Climatic Change and Its Impacts: An Overview Focusing on Switzerland
ISBN: 9789048166435 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Climatic Change is a rapidly evolving domain that has prompted the publication of numerous scientific works in recent years, reflecting both the public and scientific interest in the topic. This book focuses upon climate processes, variability and change and applies the general principles related to these issues, particularly in Switzerland. Although a small country, Switzerland is characterized by complex topography where climatic processes are often enhanced due to the presence of the Alps. In addition, there is a remarkable density of observational data in both the natural and social...

Climatic Change: Implications for the Hydrological Cycle and for Water Management
ISBN: 9789048159444 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 504 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. The material presented in this book covers such diverse areas as shifts in precipitation patterns in a changing global climate, the implications for floods or drought, and considerations of managing water resources stressed by poor management practices, overexploitation, and climatic change. The originality of this work is that it brings together under one cover issues that are often otherwise dealt with in a mono-disciplinary manner, i.e. either through the physical sciences or through economic or social considerations. In this way, the book has an added value for scientists who wish to...

Mountain Environments in Changing Climates
ISBN: 9780415102247 / Angielski / Twarda / 1994 / 494 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Home to large numbers of people, sources of water, centres of tourism, and sensitive ecological zones, mountain environments share distinctive climactic characteristics. Once regarded as economically non-viable regions, mountains now attract major investment as sites of tourism, hydro-power and communication routes. This book brings together some of the current work on the physical and human ecology of mountain environments, the impacts of climate change, the processes involved and their observation and prediction.

The Impacts of Climate Variability on Forests
ISBN: 9783540646815 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 338 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. This volume contains a selection of scientific papers which were presented at an international workshop on the impacts of climatic variability held in Wengen, Switzerland, September 1997. For the first time, an assessment is made of the interactions between physical and biological elements of the Earth System on the basis of shifts in extreme climatic conditions, rather than simply changes in mean atmospheric conditions which research has tended to focus on until recently. Natural ecosystems and forests are typical examples of systems which, while constrained within certain ranges of mean...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. year simulations in order to separate noise in the system from the climate change signal. Several contributing papers focused on case studies using Regional Climate Models (RCMs) linked to hydrological models, applied to the analysis of runoff under conditions of convective activity and extreme precipitation, in regions of complex topography, or stakeholder-driven investigations such as water runoff simulations in Quebec undertaken for a major utility. Thorough analyses of GCM results for the Century were reported at the Workshop, in order to illustrate the improvements in model results which...

Biomass Burning and Its Inter-Relationships with the Climate System
ISBN: 9789048153756 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. JOHN L. INNES University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada The interactions between biomass burning and climate have been brought into focus by a number of recent events. Firstly, the Framework Convention on Climate Change and, more recently, the Kyoto Protocol, have drawn the attention of policy makers and others to the importance of biomass burning in relation to atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations. Secondly, the use of prescribed fires has become a major management tool in some countries; with for example the area with fuel treatments (which include prescribed burns and...

Climatic Change at High Elevation Sites
ISBN: 9789048148905 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 298 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. This book provides a unique, in-depth view of past, present and potential future climatic change in mountain regions, and in particular on the mechanisms which are responsible for this change. Other books which focus on environmental change in mountains focus more generally on the impacts of this change on mountain systems, rather than on the regional features of climatic change itself. The book enters into a high level of detail concerning results of international investigations which involve specialists from numerous climate-related disciplines. The book can be used in an academic...

Global Change and Protected Areas
ISBN: 9789048156863 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 524 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. High mountains can be considered as particularly appropriate environments to detect effects ofclimate change on natural biocoenoses in a global scale for the following reasons: Firstly, ecosystems at the l- temperature limits of plant life are generally thought to be especially sensitive to climate change 1] 2] 3]. An already ongoing upward shift of vascular plants at high summits in the Alps, determined by the Austrian IGBP-research 4] 5] 6] 7] 8], is most likely a response to the atmospheric warming since the 19th century. Secondly, high mountains still comprise the most natural...
