Marine and Coastal Biodiversity, Sea level Rise Vulnerability, Fisheries, Climate Change Impact on Livelihood Options, Water and Sanitation in Island Ecosystem and Mitigation, Adaptation and Governance are the focal themes.  The basic concept conveyed in the book is that biodiversity of islands is to be protected as a natural mechanism to mitigate climate change. Probability recurrence of mass coral bleaching and the management of coral reefs and their future protection are discussed in this book. Marine Productivity and Climate Change for the last ten thousand years in the Arabian Sea have been examined with core records. Green technology is suggested as an important tool for mitigation and adaptation programmes in Climate Change. Measures taken to project Biomass utilisation of Islands as an energy source is delineated. Climate Change will have a potential threat on human health. Improved sanitation packages and models that are cost effective and environment-friendly for Islands  are uniquely presented in this book. 606 $aGeobiology 606 $aClimate change 606 $aEnvironmental sciences 606 $aCoasts 606 $aMarine sciences 606 $aFreshwater 606 $aBiogeosciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G35010 606 $aClimate Change/Climate Change Impacts$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/313000 606 $aEnvironmental Science and Engineering$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G37000 606 $aCoastal Sciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G35020 606 $aMarine & Freshwater Sciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U36000 615 0$aGeobiology. 615 0$aClimate change. 615 0$aEnvironmental sciences. 615 0$aCoasts. 615 0$aMarine sciences. 615 0$aFreshwater. 615 14$aBiogeosciences. 615 24$aClimate Change/Climate Change Impacts. 615 24$aEnvironmental Science and Engineering. 615 24$aCoastal Sciences. 615 24$aMarine & Freshwater Sciences. 676 $a577.2/2 676 $a577.22 702 $aSundaresan$b J$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aSreekesh$b S$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aRamanathan$b AL$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aSonnenschein$b Leonard$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aBoojh$b Ram$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910437955903321 996 $aClimate Change and Island and Coastal Vulnerability$92532128 997 $aUNINA
