Subject(s):

Climate change

DDC classification:

363.738740285 GEO

Contents:

1.Climate change around the world: Australia, the Netherlands and India.-- 2. Swarm planning for climate change: how transformations can be achieved.-- 3. Modelling of climate and climate projection: a data intensive paradigm.-- 4. Fundamentals of Remote Sensing.-- 5. Fundamentals of Geographical Information System (GIS), map sources and digital map preparation.-- 6. DGPS principles, errors and achievable accuracies.-- 7. Application of ArcGIS in building small island's resilience to climate change.-- 8. Dust storms over Indo Gangetic Basin and their impact on regional climate , precipitation, Himalayan snow / glaciers and ocean ecology.-- 9. Generation of morphometric information using satellite images.-- 10. Satellite geoid/gravity for offshore exploration.-- 11. Application of GIS and remote sensing in landslide hazard zonation.

Summary: Geospatial Technologies and Climate Change describes various approaches from different countries on how to use geospatial technologies to help solving climate change issues. It also details how different geospatial technologies (remote sensing, Geographical Information System ...) can be used to help with climate monitoring and modeling, how to work with them and what to be careful about. This book is written by scientific experts from four different continents. Written in a comprehensive and complete way, this book is essential reading material for graduate and undergraduate students interested in these techniques and in climate change.
