Large Asian Lakes in a Changing World, 1st ed. 2020 Natural State and Human Impact Springer Water Series
Coordonnateur : Mischke Steffen
For each lake, the book summarizes its origin and early geological history, and reconstructs its natural state and variability on the basis of proxy records from drilled or exposed lake sediments that have accumulated since the last ice age. The frequently observed reductions in lake level and size during most recent decades led often to significant environmental impacts in the respective lake catchments including vegetation deterioration, soil erosion and badland formation, soil salinization or the formation of sinkholes.
Offers a valuable reference guide, describing the natural state of important lakes in Asia
Provides a unique overview of human impacts on eight important lakes in Asia
Reveals that Asian lakes have most likely experienced the most severe ecosystem changes triggered by humans
