These bivalves play important roles in freshwater ecosystems and were once both culturally and economically valuable as sources of food, pearls, and mother-of-pearl. Today, however, hundreds of species of these mussels are extinct or endangered. David L. Strayer provides a critical synthesis of the factors that control the distribution and abundance of pearly mussels. Using empirical analyses and models, he assesses the effects of dispersal, habitat quality, availability of fish hosts, adequate food, predators, and parasites. He also addresses conservation issues that apply to other inhabitants of fresh waters around the globe and other pressing issues in contemporary ecology. 410 0$aFreshwater ecology series ;$vv. 1. 606 $aFreshwater mussels$xEcology 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aFreshwater mussels$xEcology. 676 $a594/.4176 676 $aB 700 $aStrayer$b David Lowell$f1955-$01034791 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910454254003321 996 $aFreshwater mussel ecology$92464319 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03237nam 2200709z- 450 001 9910557661903321 005 20210501 035 $a(CKB)5400000000044887 035 $a(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/68277 035 $a(oapen)doab68277 035 $a(EXLCZ)995400000000044887 100 $a20202105d2021 |y 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurmn|---annan 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aLand Use Planning for Natural Hazards 210 $aBasel, Switzerland$cMDPI - Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute$d2021 215 $a1 online resource (106 p.) 311 08$a3-03943-925-1 311 08$a3-03943-926-X 330 $aNatural hazard events are able to significantly affect the natural and artificial environment. In this context, changes in landforms due to natural disasters have the potential to affect and, in some cases, even restrict human interaction with the ecosystem. In order to minimize fatalities and reduce the economic impact that accompanies their occurrence, proper planning is crucial. Land use planning can play an important role in reducing current and future risks related to natural hazards. Land use changes can lead to natural hazards and vice versa: natural hazards affect land uses. Therefore, planners may take into account areas that are susceptible to natural hazards when selecting favorable locations for land use development. Appropriate land use planning can lead to the determination of safe and non-safe areas for urban activities. This Special Issue focuses on land use planning for natural hazards. In this context, various types of natural hazards, such as land degradation and desertification, coastal hazard, floods, and landslides, as well as their interactions with human activities, are presented. 606 $aResearch & information: general$2bicssc 610 $aBirendranagar 610 $adensity ratio 610 $adesertification 610 $aflood 610 $aflood hazard assessment 610 $afrequency ratio 610 $ageographic information system (GIS) 610 $aGIS 610 $aGreece 610 $ahistoric flood data 610 $ahuman activities 610 $aIntegrated land-use planning 610 $aland degradation 610 $aland use planning 610 $alandslides 610 $amarshy areas and lakes 610 $an/a 610 $aNepal 610 $aold topographic maps 610 $aPeloponnese 610 $aphronetic approach 610 $aphysical vulnerability 610 $apolicy 610 $aremote sensing/GIS 610 $asea-level rise 610 $asocial vulnerability 610 $astorm surge 610 $atemporal and spatial distribution of flood events 610 $aurbanization 615 7$aResearch & information: general 700 $aBathrellos$b George D$4edt$01302766 702 $aSkilodimou$b Hariklia D$4edt 702 $aBathrellos$b George D$4oth 702 $aSkilodimou$b Hariklia D$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910557661903321 996 $aLand Use Planning for Natural Hazards$93026533 997 $aUNINA
