• Sommario/riassunto: This book, 'Territorial Analysis of Environments,' explores the intricate relationships between geography, environment, and human dynamics. It delves into topics such as physical geography and the construction of environments and landscapes, focusing on regional and local environmental changes. The text emphasizes the integration of time in understanding environmental issues and the use of statistical methods for detecting local environmental changes. It discusses modeling techniques and anticipates future environmental changes and their impacts. Additionally, it examines human mobility, economic and social geography, and the societal impacts of environmental and climate change. The book is intended for researchers, academics, and policymakers interested in environmental science, geography, and demography, offering insights into stakeholder dynamics and interactions concerning environmental issues.
