Agriculture is facing multifaceted threats from unpredictable weather variability,
frequent drought occurrence, irrigation water scarcity, degradation of soil resources,
and environmental health. These stresses result in modification of plant physiology
to impart responses to the changing abiotic and biotic environments, only at the cost
of decline in the ability of plant productivity. Given these facts, assessing the status
of natural resource base and understanding the soil-plant-environmental interaction
mechanisms for devising adaptation and mitigation approaches are of great and
imminent challenges for all of us. In this context, it is essential to understand
potential applications of modern tools and existing coping mechanisms and their
integration to develop advanced mitigation strategies. In a broader perspective, the
proposed book deals with crop environment interactions in the pretext of changing
climatic conditions.
This book tries to bring answers in four major theme areas such as the following:
Understanding the mechanism of carbon dynamics in soil-plant-environmental
continuum, greenhouse gas fluxes in agriculture systems, soil properties
influenced by climate change, and carbon sequestration processes
Mitigation and management of photothermal environment for improving crop productivity, soil health under variable climate, agro-ecosystem evapotranspiration
losses through biophysical controls, and heat stress in field crops and its
management
Studying the impact of climate change on biotic environments, insect-pest interaction, manifestation of diseases, and adaptation strategies for island agroecosystem
Innovative approaches for assessing stress impacts in crops such as crop modeling,
remote sensing, and spectral stress indices.
This book is a collection of contribution from the authoritative experts in their
respective fields, provides a perspective to young researchers and opens up new
avenues of work in the respective fields, and will be useful for different stakeholders,
including postgraduate students and other academicians as well.
