Governance and partnership for sustainable development in land and water management in the Mediterranean region. aThe book provides a cross sectoral assessment of the most relevant environmental challenges in the Mediterranean region, including land and water degradation, water and food security, and solution opportunities for these. It also discusses main change drivers, such as changes in climate, land use, population, demographics and technology. Additionally, the book explores improved management, participatory planning, and nature-based strategies and measures for meeting the key environmental challenges, e.g. restoring degraded areas and improving land management in different land uses (e.g. forest, coastal and urban areas). Finally, the book addresses needs and opportunities to improve governance and partnerships for assuring sustainable development in the Mediterranean region. 0aSustainability.957661 0aEnvironmental management.959778 0aSoil science. 0aWater.965998 0aHydrology.96599914aSustainability.95766124aEnvironmental Management.95977824aSoil Science.24aWater.9659981 aFerreira, Carla Sofia Santos.eeditor.4edt4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt9837611 aDestouni, Georgia.eeditor.4edt4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt9837621 aKalantari, Zahra.eeditor.4edt4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt9837632 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer Nature eBook08iPrinted edition:z978303164502008iPrinted edition:z978303164504408iPrinted edition:z9783031645051 0aSpringer Geography,x2194-316897061440uhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-64503-7 aZDB-2-EES aZDB-2-SXEE c63130d63130
