In this book’s ten chapters, Dr. Felix Kogan, one of the most prolific scientists in this sphere, shows how a new VH method, designed from operational environmental satellite data, can be used to provide advanced predictions of agricultural losses, helping to enhance food security and reducing the number of hungry people. Topics covered include the scientific basis of the VH method, drought monitoring, prediction of short-term agricultural yield and crop insurance, and impacts of long term climate variability and change on food security. A short discussion on VH for human health-related topics such as detection and prediction of malaria and fire risk is included as well. . | 出版日期 | Book 2019 | 关键词 | Vegetation Health (VH) Technologies and Indices; Drought early detection and prediction; Global food s | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-96256-6 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-07166-0 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-96256-6Series ISSN 2523-3084 Series E-ISSN 2523-3092 | issn_series | 2523-3084 | copyright | Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2019 |
