The book comprehensively reviews the current knowledge on how natural and anthropogenic land-use\/cover changes affect weather, air quality and climate worldwide and explains how these changes may trigger further land-use\/cover changes. It discusses how anthropogenic land-use\/cover changes have affected local and regional climate and air quality since the settlement of America and the industrialisation. It addresses the topic how long-range transport of pollutants and dust of devasted areas as well as teleconnections may cause changes far away from the areas where the land-use\/cover changes occurred, for which land-use\/cover change may become an international issue similar to CO2. It also discusses relations to global change and future societal and scientific challenges related to land-use\/cover changes.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2013-11-27\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9789400736955\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-007-1527-1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 190\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47379776995468,"sku":"9789400736955","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9789400736955.jpg?v=1775730464","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9789400736955","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
