Evidences related to climate change deal with spatial and non-spatial data, which can be utilized for policy formulation. Geoinformatics, which includes remote sensing, GIS, GPS, and ICT, provides the most relevant technology to monitor climate change-related variables at different dimensions and scales. Geoinformatics for Climate Change Studies discusses the art of using this technology for investigating, monitoring, documenting, and understanding the impacts of climate change. This book provides information on the concepts and uses of geoinformatics, and focuses on filling the gap in the available literature on the subject by bringing together concepts, theories, and experiences of experts in this field. Contents: A GIS-based Framework for Modelling and Global Design of Earth Systems Geoinformatics for Climate Change Research Reactions of Mountain Glaciers to Climate Change A Remote Sensing Approach Geoinformatics and the Mapping of Lands Vulnerable to Sea Level Rise Geospatial Tools to Assess Forest Ecosystems under Climate Change Trajectories Geoinformatics for Comprehensive Impact Assessment and Analysis of Climate Change for Integrated Water Resources Management Climate Population Energy: Scenarios for 2050 Geoprocessing for Soft Mapping of Sparse and Inaccurate Evapotranspiration DataA a Impact of Climate Variability on Human Health Geo-information-based Approach for Monitoring Climate-induced Land Degradation in Nigeria Assessing Land Surface Temperature over Bangladesh using MODIS Satellite Images An Indicator of Climate Change High Resolution Climate Change Scenarios for Morocco for the 21st Century GIScience Tools for Climatic Change Related Natural Hazards and Modelling Spatial Data Infrastructure Convergence: Building Spatial Data Infrastructure Bridges to Address Climate Change Geoinformatics for Climate Change Adaptation and Disaster Risk Reduction Geoinformatics and Communication Technologies for Climate Change Hazards: Musing beyond the Technical IssuesISBN - 9788179934098
