This book answers key questions about environment, people and their
shared future in deltas. It develops a systematic and holistic
approach for policy-orientated analysis for the future of these
regions. It does so by focusing on ecosystem services in the
world's largest, most populous and most iconic delta region, that
of the Ganges-Brahmaputra delta in Bangladesh. The book covers the
conceptual basis, research approaches and challenges, while also
providing a methodology for integration across multiple
disciplines, offering a potential prototype for assessments of
deltas worldwide. Ecosystem Services for Well-Being in Deltas
analyses changing ecosystem services in deltas; the health and
well-being of people reliant on them; the continued central role of
agriculture and fishing; and the implications of aquaculture in
such environments.The analysis is brought together in an integrated
and accessible way to examine the future of the Ganges Brahmaputra
delta based on a near decade of research by a team of the world's
leading scientists on deltas and their human and environmental
dimensions. This book is essential reading for students and
academics within the fields of Environmental Geography, Sustainable
Development and Environmental Policy focused on solving the world's
most critical challenges of balancing humans with their
environments. This book is licensed under a Creative Commons
