Topics include studies on surface frost, an extreme meteorological event that occasionally affects parts of Argentina, Bolivia, Peru, and southern Brazil, with serious impacts on local economies; near-ground pollution concentration, which affects many industrial, overpopulated cities within Latin America; disaster risk reduction and management, which are represented by mathematical models designed to assess the potential impact of failures in complex networks; and the intricate dynamics of international armed conflicts, which can be modeled with the help of stochastic theory. The book offers a valuable resource for professors, researchers, and students from both mathematical and environmental sciences, civil defense coordinators, policymakers, and stakeholders. 606 $aMathematical physics 606 $aNumerical analysis 606 $aDifferential equations, Partial 606 $aComputer simulation 606 $aMathematical Applications in the Physical Sciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M13120 606 $aNumerical Analysis$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M14050 606 $aPartial Differential Equations$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M12155 606 $aSimulation and Modeling$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I19000 615 0$aMathematical physics. 615 0$aNumerical analysis. 615 0$aDifferential equations, Partial. 615 0$aComputer simulation. 615 14$aMathematical Applications in the Physical Sciences. 615 24$aNumerical Analysis. 615 24$aPartial Differential Equations. 615 24$aSimulation and Modeling. 676 $a363.70015118 676 $a519 702 $aBacelar Lima Santos$b Leonardo$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aGalante Negri$b Rogério$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $ade Carvalho$b Tiago José$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910349323303321 996 $aTowards Mathematics, Computers and Environment: A Disasters Perspective$91733804 997 $aUNINA
