Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
People around the world are facing the challenges of global changes (e.g. climate change, land use transformation, pollution, and natural hazards), which have devastating impacts on the environment and human lives. These impacts may be significantly reduced, if not prevented, when we are aware of the processes that cause these changes and learn to adapt and mitigate them.
This Special Issue focuses on novel research on environmental sustainability, with an emphasis on the consequences of natural variation and human-made disturbances, as well as their interactions. It will cover research topics ranging from monitoring of the dynamics and changes in nature and society to the evaluation and comparison of climate change impacts, ranging from regional to global scales. It is expected to provide valuable information and useful tools for stakeholders and policymakers, so as to overcome the management challenges to the benefit of humanity and to increase social and economic sustainability.
