Abstract "This book covers cutting edge topics on the interactions between scientific advancements and societal developments, and the applications of these developments to nature and environmental measurements and change. In this endeavor, there are four main clusters, namely technological developments such as geomatics applications to the measurement and analysis of socio-environmental change, ecological modifications and environmental damage, comparative ecologies, and management methods. These issues have emerged as the key topical clusters during the 21st century and may be researched effectively only by using wide-ranging examples. India stands as one of the best examples for case studies, due to its extremely variable landcover, dense human population and topflight cohorts of researchers on environmental management. The current book acknowledges the need for comparative studies, hence international comparisons are also included, using integrated ecological studies covering animal behavior, landcover, habitat and plant ecological change and human/animal relations, with the international case studies along these lines. Crucially, from a technological perspective, developments include more accurate positioning and tracking systems, detailed ecological studies, and analyses of the research results to support more sophisticated research tools. In the current book, each chapter is written by leading, international scholars, each taking a vital topic for current research"-- Provided by publisher.
