商品描述
Coastal zones exemplify the environmental pressures we face: their beauty attracts settlement, they offer potential for diverse economic activities, and they are sensitive natural habitats for important species, as well as providing a range of ecosystem services. They are also extremely vulnerable to the vicissitudes of climate change, which include rising sea levels and changes in extreme events such as storms. With large populations living in coastal and estuarine cities facing the ongoing threat of inundation, coordinated management is essential, especially as coastal zones form a linked system in which piecemeal, uncoordinated management could be counterproductive.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
沿海地區展示了我們面臨的環境壓力:它們的美麗吸引了人類定居,提供了多樣化經濟活動的潛力,並且是重要物種的敏感自然棲息地,同時提供一系列生態系統服務。這些地區對氣候變遷的變化極為脆弱,包括海平面上升和極端事件(如風暴)的變化。隨著大量人口居住在面臨持續淹水威脅的沿海和河口城市,協調管理變得至關重要,特別是因為沿海地區形成了一個相互聯繫的系統,零散且缺乏協調的管理可能會適得其反。
