Eco-resilience, Climate Change, and Land Degradation-Global Environmental Change
摘要
In an era marked by rapid environmental changes, the inter-relationship between eco-resilience, climate change, and land degradation has become increasingly critical to understand. The capability of ecosystems to endure and acclimatize to the disturbances, apart from maintaining its essential services and functions is known as Eco-resilience. Ecosystem faces challenges arising from climate change, such as adverse frequency of weather pattern, extreme heat, change in precipitation cycle, and last but not least change in climate or seasonal pattern, so this concept is indeed a necessity. Shift in climatic conditions not only threatened biodiversity and its surroundings, but also cause land degradation. It is often accelerated by factors like deforestation, overgrazing, and injudicious agricultural practices. Anthropogenic activities such as widespread deforestation, rapid growth of urban areas, accelerated growth of industrial sectors, and unsustainable use of agricultural practices are all significantly attributes in degrading the land quality or soil quality. In addition, green house gas emissions are also contributing to change in the climatic condition. This series and sequences of land degradation need immediate attention and effectively stopped at global level. So, collaborative approaches can be used to protect and amplify the resiliency of the ecosystem in the long term.
