This book offers a systematic investigation of the ecological and environmental issues related to the land cover changes in Nepal by researchers from both China and Nepal. It discusses the eco-environmental issues faced by Nepal, particularly in the hills and mountain regions. It also sheds light on the global concerns regarding the eco-environment issues of mountains, and analyzes the various causes and potential consequences of eco-environmental degradation in Nepal. The book is of particular interest to students, researchers, experts, and decision-makers wanting to gain a general overview…mehr
This book offers a systematic investigation of the ecological and environmental issues related to the land cover changes in Nepal by researchers from both China and Nepal. It discusses the eco-environmental issues faced by Nepal, particularly in the hills and mountain regions. It also sheds light on the global concerns regarding the eco-environment issues of mountains, and analyzes the various causes and potential consequences of eco-environmental degradation in Nepal. The book is of particular interest to students, researchers, experts, and decision-makers wanting to gain a general overview of land cover in Nepal and its dynamics, environment and natural resources, as well as mountain hazards.
Dr. Ainong Li is a research professor and director of the Research Center for Digital Mountain and Remote Sensing Application of the Institute of Mountain Hazards and Environment (IMHE), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS). He has been awarded by the "Hundred talents program" of CAS, the "Thousand talents program" of Sichuan province, and the "Western Light" talent cultivation program of CAS. His research majorly focuses on quantitative mountain remote sensing, and he has made many academic achievements in automatic process technique for mountain remote sensing data, land cover/use classification and land surface parameters estimation in mountainous region, and emergency investigation and assessment techniques for mountain hazards. Over the last decades, he has participated in more 20 programs at the national or provincial and ministerial level. He has published more than 100 papers, including more than 30 SCI papers.
