This book offers a critical and timely exploration of two of the most pressing environmental challenges of our time—climate change and land degradation—and the transformative role that eco-resilience can play in addressing them. As global environmental shifts intensify, ecosystems, livelihoods, and development trajectories are increasingly at risk. This volume responds to this urgency by positioning eco-resilience—the capacity of ecosystems to absorb shocks and maintain essential functions—as a guiding principle for sustainable restoration and adaptive management. Drawing upon multidisciplinary perspectives, the book presents a well-structured and accessible synthesis of cutting-edge research, real-world case studies, and policy insights from across the globe. Organized into three thematic sections, the book begins by establishing the foundational concepts and scientific understanding of the climate–land nexus. It then moves into detailed regional and global perspectives on climate-induced land degradation, highlighting vulnerable ecosystems and emerging trends. The final section turns toward solutions—showcasing community-based practices, technological innovations, nature-based strategies, and inclusive governance models that promote long-term ecological and socio-economic resilience. From the wetlands of Cameroon to the urban landscapes of India, from fragile hill ecosystems in the Nilgiris to coastal mangrove belts, the case studies provide localized yet globally relevant insights. Techniques like remote sensing, GIS-based suitability analysis, RUSLE modeling, and phenological monitoring are coupled with participatory approaches and traditional knowledge systems to create actionable, adaptive pathways.
This book is designed for senior undergraduate and graduate students, academic researchers, policy-makers, and professionals in environmental sciences, agriculture, urban and regional planning, civil and environmental engineering, and climate policy. It offers not only an in-depth analysis of the drivers and consequences of climate change and land degradation but also a roadmap for building sustainable and resilient landscapes in the face of a rapidly changing planet. Eco-Resilience is more than a scholarly resource—it is a call to action for a shared future where ecological integrity and human well-being go hand in hand.
