| Summary |
Environmental Resilience and Transformation in Times of COVID-19: Climate Change Effects on Environmental Functionality is a timely reference to better understand environmental changes amid the COVID-19 pandemic and the associated lockdowns. The book is organized into five themes: (1) environmental modifications, degradation, and human health risks; (2) water resources--planning, management, and governance; (3) air quality--monitoring, fate, transport, and drivers of socioenvironmental change; (4) marine and lacustrine environment; and (5) sustainable development goals and environmental justice. These themes provide an insight into the impact of COVID-19 on the environment and vice versa, which will help improve environmental management and planning, as well as influence future policies. Featuring many case studies from around the globe, this book offers a crucial examination of the intersectionality between climate, sustainability, the environment, and public health for researchers, practitioners, and policymakers in environmental science. Features global case studies to illustrate themes and address issues to support environmental management. Offers fundamental and practical understanding of ways to improve and validate predictive abilities and tools in addition to responseExamines climate-related trends in the spread of the pandemic. Presents different ways forward in order to achieve global goals with a specific focus on SDGs |
