Pervasive human misuse and overuse of its water, land, and other critical natural resources have led to severe degradation of key ecological systems. This book analyses the environmental, human and economic problems that have arisen and presents recommendations for future research needs. Primary focus is on the drying of the Aral Sea, but related issues of diminished river flow, land and water pollution, and degradation, ecosystem deterioration, and adverse effects on humans are also examined.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2011-09-28\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e ISBN-10: 9783642647369\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783642647369\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-642-61182-7\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 186\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44358423347340,"sku":"9783642647369","price":99.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783642647369_41980555-070d-4845-b29f-61d3efc9f015.jpg?v=1755106239","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783642647369","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
