Majda Khalil Suleiman (37 results)

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This book is the result of a collaborative effort among internationally renowned multidisciplinary scientists who recognize that arid lands are particularly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change. These impacts are expected to significantly affect the productive capacity of arid regions, thereby posing challenges to food security. Furthermore, the contributors acknowledge that under current conditions and the prevailing pace of progress, achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal (SDG 2) of ending hunger by 2030 will be highly challenging.In response to these pressing issues, the editors took the initiative to invite distinguished scientists to contribute manuscripts that compile the latest knowledge on multidisciplinary and cross-sectoral aspects of climate change impacts on food security, with a focus on countries in arid regions. The information presented in this book is intended to benefit a wide range of global stakeholdersincluding students, farmers, researchers, extension workers, and policymakersby supporting the development of strategies to mitigate climate change impacts and adopt science-based adaptation practices. These efforts are critical to enhancing the resilience of arid lands and advancing progress toward SDG 2.The book is organized into five sections covering key topics: natural resources management and governance, agriculture and food security, mitigation and adaptation synergies, poultry and aquaculture, and agricultural pests and soil microbial populations. This comprehensive compilation serves as a unique scientific resource, providing up-to-date information on the global challenges faced by arid lands in the context of climate change, along with strategies for mitigation and adaptation to ensure food security. This book is the result of a collaborative effort among internationally renowned multidisciplinary scientists who recognize that arid lands are particularly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This book is an outcome of collaborative efforts of a multidisciplinary team of scientists. The core objective of this book is to provide cross-sectoral information on the different aspects of the terrestrial environment and ecosystems of Kuwait. The book will be considered as a ready source of information for those seeking information on the terrestrial environment and ecosystems, assessment and restoration, as well as sustainable uses and management. In spite of Kuwaits hyper-arid environment, it is rich in natural resources including a wide range of native plants, animal species, different habitats, protected areas, diversified soils and water and oil resources. While the desert of Kuwait constitutes various features, such as sand sheet, sand dunes, nebkhas, inland and coastal sabkhas, rock outcrop, wadis and farming areas, it is rich in flora and fauna (native plants, mammals, birds, reptiles, etc.). Due to changing climate, deserts of Kuwait as well as other countries are under severe threat of degradation and the degradation may be irreversible. To realize these impacts, an effort is being made to provide a ready source of information to highlight the potential threats to the terrestrial ecosystems and formulate adaptation and mitigation strategies for long-term ecosystems services in Kuwait as well as other countries located in a desert environment, such as Gulf Cooperation Council Countries, Africa and countries in the Arab region. The book includes sixteen chapters covering multidiscipline subjects (such as natural resources, climate and climate change, geographical features, terrestrial habitats, ecosystems and threats, water and soil resources, agriculture, food security, water-energy-food-climate nexus, green-grey-blue water footprints of various crops, etc.). Thus, this book is a unique resource that provides the latest scientific information in a single volume.
