Book Description:
|
Nearly two-thirds of the world's population live in Asia, and many countries in that region are currently undergoing rapid industrial, agricultural and economic development. Developing countries in the Asian region both contribute to global changes (by altering biogeochemical pathways and cycles) and are themselves affected by those changes. This volume provides the first integrated analysis of the interactions between global change and Asian change.
