Land cover and land use

Meer over het boek

Human interventions have increasingly driven transformations in terrestrial ecosystems, surpassing natural phenomena. Changes in land cover and use significantly impact socioeconomic and environmental systems, affecting sustainability, food sovereignty, and biodiversity. These alterations, such as deforestation and shifts in agricultural practices, lead to changes in the structure and composition of natural ecosystems, highlighting the fragility of both ecosystems and human communities in the face of global environmental changes.
