Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Ambiente  Agua  Hidrología  Geografía  Sostenibilidad  Comunidades bióticas  Ciencias ambientales  Geografía Regional  Ecosistemas Clasificación: 333.7 Recursos naturales y energía Resumen: Este libro contribuye a nuestra comprensión de los vínculos entre la gestión del carbono y los medios de vida locales al hacer un balance de la evidencia existente y aprovechar las experiencias de campo en la región del Himalaya Hindu Kush (HKH), un área que proporciona agua dulce a más de 2 mil millones de personas y apoya la mayor población de pastores del mundo y millones de cabezas de ganado. Este volumen editado aborda dos preguntas principales: 1. ¿La gestión del carbono ofrece oportunidades de medios de vida o presenta riesgos? ¿Cuáles son? 2. ¿Los atributos del financiamiento del carbono alteran la naturaleza de las oportunidades y riesgos de los medios de vida? Los capítulos analizan las deficiencias más apremiantes en la comprensión del almacenamiento de carbono tanto en el suelo como en la biomasa aérea, y los desafíos sociales y económicos asociados con los proyectos de secuestro de carbono. Los capítulos brindan información tanto a académicos de diversas disciplinas (ciencias naturales, ciencias sociales e ingeniería) como a los responsables políticos. .

Tipo de medio : Computadora Summary : This book contributes to our understanding of linkages between carbon management and local livelihoods by taking stock of the existing evidence and drawing on field experiences in the Hindu Kush Himalayan (HKH) region, an area that provides fresh water to more than 2 billion people and supports the world's largest population of pastoralists and millions of livestock. This edited volume addresses two main questions: 1. Does carbon management offer livelihood opportunities or present risks, and what are they? 2. Do the attributes of carbon financing alter the nature of livelihood opportunities and risks? Chapters analyze the most pressing deficiencies in understanding carbon storage in both soils and in above ground biomass, and the related social and economic challenges associated with carbon sequestration projects. Chapters deliver insights to both academics from diverse disciplines (natural sciences, social sciences and engineering) and to policy makers. .
