Abstract:
Thematic Guides offer overviews of some of the key topics and issues that pertain to the human dimensions of global environmental change. The guides are designed to complement data-access tools like the CIESIN Catalog by providing context and background information. Through the use of links within editorial essays that provide structure and direction, Thematic Guides offer on-line access to the full texts of hundreds of journal articles, book sections and chapters, papers from proceedings, government reports, maps and images, and other relevant materials. Themes include: Agriculture, Human Dimensions Research Programs, Human Health, Land Use, Ozone Depletion, Political Institutions, Integrated Assessment Modeling of Climate Change, Remote Sensing
