Abstract

Het klimaat verandert en zet Vlaanderen onder druk. De voorbije jaren lag de focus in het klimaatdiscours vooral op mitigratie. Maar nu we het klimaatprobleem beter begrijpen, treedt adaptatie stilaan op de voorgrond. Hoe gaan we om met de gevolgen van klimaatveranderingen? Wat zijn de klimaateffecten waar we in Vlaanderen rekening mee kunnen en zullen houden? Hoe gaan we om met de klimaatimpact en welke kansen kunnen we benutten?

Abstract

The biosphere is the ultimate sink for air pollutants and is also the source of many precursors for the formation of photo-oxidants. In any analysis of air pollution and for determining source-receptor relationships, reliable emission and pollutant concentrations or depositions must be taken into account, together with their interactions between the atmosphere and the biosphere. This book presents a number of authoritative review articles covering topics which include biosphere-atmosphere exchange of ammonia, nitrogen oxides, ozone and sulfur-containing gases, the biological mechanisms involved in the exchange of trace gases, as well as generalizations of deposition over Europe. There are also 37 short contributions that show the diversity of the research in Europe and provide the additional detail necessary for a proper appreciation of the field. This book is volume 4 of the series on Transport and Chemical Transformation of Pollutants in the Troposphere.

Abstract

Interactions between agriculture, climate and patterns of land use are complex. Major changes in agriculture, and land use patterns are foreseen in the next couple of decades in response to shifts in climate, greenhouse gas management initiatives, population growth and other forces. The book explores key interactions between changes in agriculture, patterns of land use and efforts to reduce greenhouse emissions from agriculture. The volume is based on inter-disciplinary science and policy interactions, exploring the way land use may aid in addressing or be affected by the onset of climate change and alterations in food demand. Future forces shaping land use decisions are examined, and its sensitivity to climate change is highlighted. Patterns of land use and the agricultural role in climate change mitigation are explored. Also, policy and social responses to the new perspectives on future land use patterns are identified. The perspective of the book is beyond the year 2015.
