It is intended for graduate and upper-undergraduate course use, however, applied mathematicians, industry practitioners, and a vast number of interdisciplinary academics will find the presentation highly useful.\u003cbr\u003eCore topics of this text are:\u003cbr\u003e· Economic growth and technological development\u003cbr\u003e· Population dynamics and human impact on the environment\u003cbr\u003e· Resource extraction and scarcity\u003cbr\u003e· Air and water contamination\u003cbr\u003e· Rational management of the economy and environment\u003cbr\u003e· Climate change and global dynamics\u003cbr\u003eThe step-by-step approach taken is problem-based and easy to follow. The authors aptly demonstrate that the same models may be used to describe different economic and environmental processes and that similar investigation techniques are applicable to analyze variousmodels. Instructors will appreciate the substantial flexibility that this text allows while designing their own syllabus. Chapters are essentially self-contained and may be covered in full, in part, and in any order.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAppropriate one- and two-semester courses include, but are not limited to, Applied Mathematical Modeling, Mathematical Methods in Economics and Environment, Models of Biological Systems, Applied Optimization Models, and Environmental Models. Prerequisites for the courses are Calculus and, preferably, Differential Equations.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2016-08-23\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781489977205\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4614-9311-2\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 296\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45382502744204,"sku":"9781489977205","price":58.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781489977205.jpg?v=1775746281","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9781489977205","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
