Natural Resources Conservation and Advances for Sustainability addresses the latest challenges associated with the management and conservation of natural resources. It presents interdisciplinary approaches to promote advances in solving these challenges. By examining what has already been done and analyzing it in the context of what still needs to be done, particularly in the context of latest technologies and sustainability, the book helps to identify ideal methods for natural resource management and conservation. Each chapter begins with a graphical abstract and presents complicated or detailed content in the form of figures or tables.

In addition, the book compares the latest techniques with conventional techniques and troubleshoots conventional methods with modifications, making it a practical resource for researchers in environmental science and natural resource management.

  • Discusses the pros and cons of past and current endeavors related to natural resource management
  • Presents recent technologies and methods for management and conservation, particularly with applications for sustainability
  • Covers a variety of disciplines, from environmental science to life science
  • Includes a graphical abstract as well as a section on significant achievements in the field and future perspectives
