Hipel, Maiko Sakamoto, Yoshimi Hagihara).Whether a natural event turns into a disaster depends on the severity of the hazard as well as the condition of the social sphere of its potential victims, i.e., vulnerability. We focus on regional vulnerability considering the fact that regional socioeconomic conditions determine the aspects of the damage and thus the risk management policy. This book provides the theory and methodology to understand and cope with regional vulnerability through an interdisciplinary approach. The fields mainly included in this work are welfare and environmental economics, the planning and management area of civil engineering, and risk management. In particular, we focus on hazard and vulnerability surrounding water issues and provide readers with knowledge of how the regional analysis is incorporated into the vulnerability analysis. Also considered is what risk management should be when the diversified regional background of the vulnerability is taken into account. A feature of this book is that it provides contrastive regional coverage: the vulnerability of a developed country—urban and regional areas of Japan—and that of a developing country, Bangladesh. The contents consist of three parts: (1) Socioeconomic Vulnerability in a Regional Perspective, (2) Evaluation of Regional Vulnerability, and (3) Coping with Regional Vulnerability. This book is highly recommended to researchers who need an up-to-date and interdisciplinary approach to deal with risk management where regional vulnerability plays an important role.New Frontiers in Regional Science: Asian Perspectives,2199-5974 ;4Regional economicsSpatial economicsSocial policyEnvironmental economicsRegional/Spatial Sciencehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W49000Social Policyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W34020Environmental Economicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W48000Regional economics.Spatial economics.Social policy.Environmental economics.Regional/Spatial Science.Social Policy.Environmental Economics.363.34Hagihara Kiyokoedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtAsahi Chisatoedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910255058403321Coping with Regional Vulnerability2149575UNINA05137nam 22006855 450 991104769870332120251117120405.0978303208052310.1007/978-3-032-08052-3(CKB)43368602200041(MiAaPQ)EBC32420083(Au-PeEL)EBL32420083(DE-He213)978-3-032-08052-3(EXLCZ)994336860220004120251117d2025 u| 0engur|||||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierAgroforestry for a Sustainable Future The Place of Carbon Credits and Markets /by Nyong Princely Awazi1st ed. 2025.Cham :Springer Nature Switzerland :Imprint: Palgrave Macmillan,2025.1 online resource (491 pages)Palgrave Studies in Climate Resilient Societies,2523-81329783032080516 Chapter 1: INTRODUCTION TO THE ROLE OF COCOA-BASED AGROFORESTS FOR CARBON CREDITS AND MARKETS, SOIL FERTILITY IMPROVEMENT AND SOIL MACRO-FAUNA CONSERVATION -- Chapter 2: CONCEPTUAL AND EMPIRICAL OVERVIEW ON SOILS, SOIL FERTILITY AND SOIL MACROFAUNA IN COCOA-BASED AGROFORESTS -- Chapter 3: COCOA-BASED AGROFORESTS FOR CARBON CREDITS AND MARKETS: WHAT PROSPECTS? -- Chapter 4: SOIL MACRO-FAUNA DIVERSITY AND SOIL FERTILITY IMPROVEMENT IN COCOA-BASED AGROFORESTS IN CAMEROON: A PHYSICO-CHEMICAL ASSESSMENT -- Chapter 5: SOIL PHYSICO-CHEMICAL PROPERTIES IN COCOA-BASED AGROFORESTRY SYSTEMS IN CAMEROON AND IMPLICATIONS FOR SUSTAINABILITY AND POLICY -- Chapter 6: THE TREE SPECIES DIVERSITY AND SOIL FERTILITY NEXUS IN COCOA-BASED AGROFORESTS IN CAMEROON: A BIOPHYSICAL ASSESSMENT -- Chapter 7: AGROCHEMICAL USE AND IMPACTS ON SOIL MACRO-FAUNA AND SOIL FERTILITY IN COCOA-BASED AGROFORESTS IN CAMEROON -- Chapter 8: COCOA-BASED AGROFORESTS FOR CARBON CREDITS AND MARKETS, SOIL FERTILITY IMPROVEMENT AND SOIL MACRO-FAUNA CONSERVATION: GOVERNANCE AND POLICY PARADIGMS -- Chapter 9: CONCLUSION TO COCOA-BASED AGROFORESTS FOR CARBON CREDITS AND MARKETS, SOIL FERTILITY IMPROVEMENT AND SOIL MACRO-FAUNA CONSERVATION.This book investigates the multifaceted role of agroforestry in promoting sustainability and resilience in agricultural systems, with a particular focus on the potential of carbon credits and markets to incentivize these systems. The approach taken in this book is interdisciplinary, drawing from ecological science, agricultural economics, policy analysis, and social sciences. Each chapter provides a comprehensive examination of key themes, with a blend of theoretical insights and practical examples, highlighting successful case studies and identifying pathways for overcoming barriers to adoption. By engaging with a range of stakeholders including farmers, policymakers, environmentalists, and community organizations, this book aims to foster a dialogue about how agroforestry can be integrated into broader sustainability frameworks. The author argues that agroforestry not only enhances ecosystem services but also contributes to carbon sequestration efforts, presenting an opportunity to align agricultural practices with climate goals. By exploring the intersection of agroforestry and carbon markets, this book seeks to inform and inspire action toward a more sustainable future.
