Hardcover. Zustand: New. Spiders are least explored non-chemical alternative in insect-pest control. Spiders are often confused with other long-legged insects and mistakenly feared as poisonous. This book provides an introduction to the spiders covering its physical characteristics, behaviour and physiology, neurobiology, reproductive characteristics, habits, habitats, prey, relationships to human beings and various challenges faced in rice cropping with special emphasis on its insect pests and role of spiders as an effective biocontrol agent. Along with as a biocontrol agent, spiders also act as an important detrivores agent and play an important role in food web and overall ecology of the rice field. Spiders are described with simple text and full-colour illustrations. With indiscriminate use of pesticides, spiders are facing threat and populations are decreasing reducing its pest control ability. Hence, there is urgent need to conserve this generalist predator by providing artificial shelters, promoting bio-rational control methods and restricting use of chemicals in the rice fields. This book is an asset for students, teacher and researchers of plant pathology, agronomy, entomology, zoology, crop protection as well as person engaged in spiders in rice.

Due to the ever increasing demands of human beings there is an additional requirement of understanding environmental issues related to human activities, and their effect on the planet. The need to protect the environment seems frequently in conflict with the need to feed the ever growing population, to supply the energy to the industries, transportation and fueling other needs. The present textbook begins with the basic knowledge of environmental issues. The aim of the book is to present an outline of environmental problems created by human beings in their quest to produce food and make life comfortable; to highlight the effects of these problems on environment, living organisms and humans themselves; to draw attention to the work of individuals, groups and governments in their efforts to solve these environmental problems and preserve the environment and the world for the future generations. This book will discuss the broad overview of the global and regional environmental issues including global warming, ozone layer depletion, environmental pollution, regional issues like desertification, eutrophication, siltation etc. It includes coverage of contemporary hot topics such as biodiversity, urbanization and deforestation. This book will be very useful not only for the Environmental Science students, but also for all other PG students who have opted for the Environmental Issues course in open elective course. It is presented in highly readable manner that makes it easy for the students with limited science background, while remaining useful to those with more. Efforts have been made to make the readers understand the causes of environmental problems and find local and global solutions to these problems.

The VII ESW annual national research conference on "Climate Change and Global Health Management" organized by ESW Society Khajuraho during 01 & 02 February, 2020 at UNESCO Heritage site Khajuraho, India. Large-scale and human environmental hazards to global health include climate change, stratospheric ozone depletion, changes in ecosystems due to loss of biodiversity, changes in hydrological systems and the supplies of freshwater, land degradation, urbanization, and stresses on food-producing systems. Policy choices are guided by several principles. These include considerations of equity, efficiency and political feasibility. To make informed decisions about climate change and global health, policy-makers will need timely and useful information about the possible consequences of climate change. Once policy-makers have received input from the impact assessment community, they must integrate this information into a broader policy portfolio. Climate change, however, should not be considered in isolation from other global environmental stresses. Climate change should therefore be viewed as part of the larger challenge of sustainable development. Some have argued that the existence of scientific uncertainties precludes policy makers from taking action today in anticipation of climate change. The outcomes of these decisions may be affected by climate change. This book is highly useful for researchers, teachers, students, policy maker and environmentalist engage in climate change and global health management.

"Sericulture has attracted special attention of India since Independence due to rising internal demand and its export potential. Sericulture is the combination of people, machine, instruments, equipments, raw materials, proper methods and environment. Over the decades, the production of silk in India has increased horizontally, but its vertical growth remained retarded. Against the increased demand for quality silk in the international market, scope for production of export quality silk in India is enormous. "In this book emphasis has been given on the techniques required for the better quality and quantity production of Tasar cocoons through systematic and natural process instead of adopting pure scientific equipments or manipulating the natural system of operation. "The book is replete with useful references and illustrations and an exhaustive index, holds and enduring appeal for the concerned scholars and students as well as professionals.".

Annex I. Chemicals used within the aquaculture industry are identified and for each chemical a brief summary of information is provided when available on its intended purpose scale of application the aquacultural sectors and geographic locations of principal use and potential impacts on the environment and human health. Environmental issues arising from the properties of aquacultural chemicals are discussed. The use of most chemicals in aquaculture if carried out properly can be regarded as wholly beneficial with no attendant adverse environmental effects or increased risks to the health of aquacultural workers. Concerns appear warranted however regarding the over use and misuse of certain chemicals for which proper risk assessments with respect to the marine environment have not been conducted. A further legitimate concern and a barrier to conducting an exhaustive review of these practices is the lack of availability of quantitative data on contemporary chemical use in the aquaculture industry. The viability of contemporary aquaculture is contingent on the use of chemicals. Accordingly while the overriding consideration should be minimizing the quantities of chemicals applied most current uses of chemicals are essential. Recognising that chemotherapeutants and pesticides in current use are of varying effectiveness and hazard recommendations are provided to promote the safe and effective use of chemicals in coastal aquaculture. Governmental authorities the scientific community and the aquacultural and pharmaceutical industries all have important roles to play to ensure that chemical use is consistent with protection of environmental quality and human health. In particular mechanisms need to be put in place and enforced for the registration and control of aquacultural chemicals to protect the environment and human health and to ensure the sustainable growth of the aquaculture industry. 45 pp.
