Resource and learning tool presenting the synergies of water and food trends, environmental ecosystems, and social and economic dimensions

The Global Nexus Handbook presents the synergies of water and food trends, environmental ecosystems, and social and economic dimensions, focusing on nature-based, clean energy, and global nexus trend solutions in the ecosystem, particularly in urban and coastal areas. This three-volume collection helps readers consider and understand the interrelationships between components of nature to strive towards a secure and sustainable future.

The Global Nexus Handbook includes information on:

  • The interaction in ecosystem environment between water, hydroponics, aquaculture, food policy and security, land, biomass, biodiversity, conflict, infrastructure, and socio-ecological dynamics
  • Economical aspects including peace, democracy, investment, gender, migration, poverty, and terrorism
  • Nexus problems and issues generally applicable to the realm of the biosphere
  • How various nexuses examine, assess, and deconstruct the social-economic realities of development

The Global Nexus Handbook is an essential reference for researchers in related fields and students in programs of study focusing on environment science and engineering, ecology, environment science and engineering, and food science. Government policy makers and engineering consultants will also find the text valuable.
