To do so, it closely examines and compares the trends in selected population parameters, including total population, total number of households, population density, population growth rate, percent of total population in slums and intercensal net migration over the past two decades. Presenting the changes in various LULC categories (built-up land, forest cover, agricultural land, fallow land and water bodies) using the supervised classification of Landsat TM-5 images, it assesses the impact of population and LULC on the maximum and minimum temperatures and average annual rainfall in these regions. The book is a valuable resource for researchers and academics in the areas of sustainability, population and development, and environmental studies as well as those in NGOs and humanitarian sectors working in the areas of sustainable development and environment. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Geography,$x2211-4165 606 $aSociology, Urban 606 $aUrban geography 606 $aSustainable development 606 $aEnvironment 606 $aUrban Studies/Sociology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22250 606 $aUrban Geography / Urbanism (inc. megacities, cities, towns)$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J15010 606 $aSustainable Development$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U34000 606 $aEnvironment Studies$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X36000 615 0$aSociology, Urban. 615 0$aUrban geography. 615 0$aSustainable development. 615 0$aEnvironment. 615 14$aUrban Studies/Sociology. 615 24$aUrban Geography / Urbanism (inc. megacities, cities, towns). 615 24$aSustainable Development. 615 24$aEnvironment Studies. 676 $a333.730954 700 $aSikarwar$b Ankit$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0866422 702 $aChattopadhyay$b Aparajita$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910392714803321 996 $aAnalyzing Population and Land Use Change$91933867 997 $aUNINA
