Earth Observation: Sustainable Development Perspectives offers expert insights into the latest progress made in terrestrial, oceanic, and atmospheric processes, and their inter-linkage in the face of changing climate using earth observation. Reviewing contemporary research, this volume addresses various challenges faced in agricultural research and education, crop production forecasting, agroforestry, floriculture, horticulture, crop insurance and marine resources utilization for sustainable development in the warming world. The editors examine the advances made in understanding the changing dynamics of various ecosystems such as land use, water resources, ecosystem productivity and biodiversity. In addition, the book addresses ocean-atmosphere interactions, modes of climate variations such as, El Nino and Indian Ocean dipole, extreme events, tropical cyclone, summer monsoon and distribution of organic matter and interlinks among various ocean-atmosphere phenomena. The use of advanced data sets, measurements techniques, modeling and analytics protocols, analyses methods and interpretations are also discussed. Provides comprehensive coverage of the changes observed through satellite remote sensing of land, ocean, atmosphere, and vegetation under the influence of climate changeAnalyzes various challenges faced in agricultural research and education, crop production forecasting, agroforestry, floriculture, horticulture, crop insurance, and marine resources utilizationExplores ocean-atmosphere interactions, modes of climate variations such as El Nino and Indian Ocean dipole, extreme events, tropical cyclone, summer monsoon and distribution of organic matter and their interlinks among various ocean-atmosphere phenomenaExamines various biogeo-physical processes using earth observation for better climate mitigation and adaptation INDICE: 1.
