This book summarizes contemporary research on land degradation, desertification, and how such issues relate to socioeconomic growth in developing countries. With a focus on local and regional levels, the book offers an in-depth analysis of aeolian action as a physical process, causes of land degradation, and desertification. The causes and effects of land degradation were investigated by utilizing multiscale and multidisciplinary methodologies, merging spatial socioeconomic data with remote sensing data, and using multiple levels and disciplinary approaches. The book also describes how to combine GIS with cutting-edge technologies such as remote sensing, geostatistics, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray (EDAX) analysis, and analytical hierarchy approaches, among others. Included is a thorough case study of the unusual but understudied semi-arid Anantapur district in Andhra Pradesh, South India. This book encourages the participation of all socioeconomic groups in decision-making and assists authorities and planners in developing suitable plans for the sustainable agricultural growth of an area. The book is an invaluable resource to comprehend and resolve issues about sustainable environmental planning and management.
Prof. Raghu Babu Kottala has devoted his work to applications of advanced technology. He received his M.Sc. in geology in 1996 and his Ph.D. in geology in 2006 from Sri Venkateswara University, Tirupati, India. During his Ph.D. course, he worked in a DST project on paleomagnetism. Later, in 2007, he joined Yogi Vemana University as an assistant professor and was promoted to an associate professor in 2019 and to a professor in 2022. He has published 75 research articles in multiple fields of geology, including application of remote sensing and GIS in groundwater and mineral exploration; ore beneficiation techniques; energy production by waste treatment; and management and assessment of desertification. He has also published 9 chapters on multidisciplinary issues such as history, archeology (rock art, megalithic culture), heritage and culture, and temple architecture, among others. He specializes in petrology, mineral exploration, remote sensing and GIS applications, and environmental geology.
