Desertification In A European Context

Meer over het boek

"The European School of Climatology and Natural Hazards was founded in 1988 as a part of the training and education activities of the European Programme on Climatology and Natural Hazards (EPOCH), and was later continued under the subsequent research programme ENVIRONMENT (1990-1994). The School consists of a series of courses on specialised subjects within the general theme of research in climatology and natural hazards. Each of the courses is organized in cooperation with a European Institution involved in the current research programme, and is aimed at giving the students new perspectives and insights in the specialist subject areas through formal lectures and participation in informal discussions with leading researchers. The present volume is based on lectures given at the course held in El Campello, Pueblo Acantilado (Alicante), Spain, from the 6th to the 13th October 1993 on "Desertification in a European context: Physical and Socio-economic Aspects". It also contains presentations, given by the the participating students, on their own research activities and interests."--Editor.
