Plantation-Based Land Restoration (eBook, PDF)

Redaktion: Pandey, Vimal Chandra

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This contributed volume focuses on utilizing biomass for the restoration of stressed lands. The book offers remedies, mechanisms and detailed plan of land restoration covered through 20 chapters which have been contributed by soil experts. Also highlighted are innovative methods such as phyto-management of stressed lands through valuable plants and the use of agroforestry crops to conserve nature with a special focus on generation of ecosystem services. As stressed lands continue to increase over the world, land security is one of the important concerns for the future sustainability of humans. Its restoration and management are critical issues to protect and preserve the land quality and functions. This will help in regaining biodiversity and ecosystem services and thereby help attain UN's Sustainable Development Goals.

This book equips research scholars, agriculturists, environmentalists, practitioners, ecological scientists, policymakers, entrepreneurs, and other stakeholders with information needed to restore stressed lands.

Autorenporträt

Vimal Chandra Pandey is an applied research scientist, internationally recognized for his research in the area of phytomanagement of polluted sites. His research focuses mainly on the remediation and management of polluted lands, using ecologically and socioeconomically valuable plants, to regain ecosystem services and support a bio-based economy as phytoproducts. His research interests also lie in fostering phytoremediation for utilizing polluted lands and thereby attaining the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. His phytoremediation work has led to the extension of phytoremediation beyond its traditional application. He is now engaged in exploring commercial phytoremediation with the least risk, minimum input, and low maintenance. He worked at CSIR-National Botanical Research Institute, Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar University, and the Council of Science and Technology, Uttar Pradesh, Lucknow, India. He has published over 121 scientific articles and book chapters in peer-reviewed journals and books.
