Short description/annotation
Reports comprehensively on the state of Southeast Asian biodiversity and suggests actions immediately needed to ease the impending crisis.
Main description
The biodiversity of Southeast Asia is gravely imperilled by drivers including massive habitat modifications, forest fires and the overexploitation of wildlife. This book contains the first comprehensive determination of the current state of Southeast Asia's terrestrial biotas and highlights the primary drivers responsible for the grave threat to the region's unique and rich biodiversity. The looming Southeast Asian biodiversity disaster demands tangible actions. However, such will continue to be constrained by socioeconomic variables (e.g. rampant poverty and lack of infrastructure). Any realistic solution should involve a multi-pronged strategy (e.g. political, socioeconomic and scientific), in which all major stakeholders (e.g. people, governments and national and international non-government organizations) must partake.
Table of contents:
Preface; 1. Dwindling habitats; 2. Biodiversity in a hotspot; 3. Biotic losses and other effects of habitat degradation; 4. Beyond deforestation: additional threats to Southeast Asian biodiversity; 5. The projected future of biodiversity of Southeast Asia; 6. Challenges and options for conservation in the region; References.
