Ecological Aspects of Soil and Land Preservation
Olga Anatolievna Pasko
Agricultural lands worldwide are deteriorating, becoming acidic and losing essential humus content. This impacts global food quality and nutrition. Causes include extreme natural events and harmful human activities like deforestation. The consequences are stark—shrinking agricultural land, reduced fertility, lower crop yields, and increased costs. Developing nations face food shortages, population decline, and shortened life expectancy. The urgency demands international cooperation, legislation, and technological advancements. Ecological Aspects of Soil and Land Preservation delves into this critical issue, emphasizing the need for collective action and sustainable solutions. Ecological Aspects of Soil and Land Preservation serves as a resource for scholars, students, and professionals committed to addressing the crisis. This book collects, summarizes, and analyzes the latest information on agricultural land and forest degradation. Beyond that, it introduces groundbreaking hypotheses, theories, and solutions, enriching the scientific community's understanding. The objective is clear: to be an informative resource that not only sheds light on the problem but also catalyzes actionable solutions.

Natural Resource Management Issues in Human-Influenced Landscapes
Dilini Hemachandra
Researchers working on natural resource management issues in human-influenced landscapes need to be able to elicit both biophysical and socio-economic information and explore the interactions between these realms to identify appropriate management options. Biophysical scientists are increasingly interested in researching natural resource management. This, however, requires a sensitivity to the socio-ecological dimensions in a landscape and at least a basic understanding of how to incorporate such in the research designing phase. Natural Resource Management Issues in Human-Influenced Landscapes documents the firsthand research designing experience of prolific researchers for the knowledge of budding researchers, which is not usually shared in journal publications. The chapters showcase cases narrated by the authors about their field experiences and cross-country comparisons. Covering topics such as biodiversity, plant genetic resources, and sustainable production, this premier reference source is an essential resource for ecologists, government officials, students and educators of higher education, librarians, researchers, and academicians.
