Environmental Change and its Implications for Population Migration

by Jon D. Unruh (Editor), Maarten Krol (Editor), N. Kliot (Editor)

This volume provides an ample overview of state-of-the-art understanding of the multi-dimensional phenomenon of migration, in the characterisation of migration drivers, in environmental and agro-economic case studies and modelling issues as well as socio-political analyses. The analysis is geared to the consequences of climatic change, and the effects on soil, water and extreme weather that will drive populations to migrate.
