The volume unites multiple subject areas within sustainability, enabling the techniques and philosophy in the chapters to be applied to research areas in environmental science, plant sciences, energy, biodiversity and conservation. The chapters from expert contributors cover topics such as mathematical modelling tools used to monitor diversity of plant species, and the stability of ecosystem services such as biogeochemical cycling. Empirical research presented here also brings together mathematical developments in the important fields of robotics including kinematics, dynamics, path planning, control, vision, and swarmanoids. Through this book readers will also discover about rainfall-runoff modelling which will give them a better idea of the effects of climate change on the sustainability of water resources at the watershed scale. Modelling approaches will also be examined that maximize readers insights into the global problem of energy transition, i.e. the switch to an energy production system using renewable resources only. Collective and discrete insights are made to assist with synergy which should progress well beyond this book. Insight is also given to assist policy formations, development and implementations. The book has a strong multi-disciplinary nature at its core, and will appeal to both generalist readers and specialists in information technology, mathematics, biology, physics, chemistry and environmental sciences. 606 $aSustainable development 606 $aComputer simulation 606 $aArtificial intelligence 606 $aNatural resources 606 $aEnvironmental management 606 $aNature conservation 606 $aSustainable Development$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U34000 606 $aSimulation and Modeling$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I19000 606 $aArtificial Intelligence$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I21000 606 $aNatural Resources$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U39000 606 $aEnvironmental Management$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U17009 606 $aNature Conservation$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U26008 615 0$aSustainable development. 615 0$aComputer simulation. 615 0$aArtificial intelligence. 615 0$aNatural resources. 615 0$aEnvironmental management. 615 0$aNature conservation. 615 14$aSustainable Development. 615 24$aSimulation and Modeling. 615 24$aArtificial Intelligence. 615 24$aNatural Resources. 615 24$aEnvironmental Management. 615 24$aNature Conservation. 676 $a338.927 702 $aFurze$b James N$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aSwing$b Kelly$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aGupta$b Anil K$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aMcClatchey$b Richard H$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aReynolds$b Darren M$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910155318203321 996 $aMathematical Advances Towards Sustainable Environmental Systems$92513998 997 $aUNINA
