Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the links between population dynamics and environment. Demographic changes, e.g. population growth and decline, urbanization and migration are analyzed by researchers from different natural and social sciences, focusing on complex interactions between population dynamics and transformations of water and food supply systems. Empirical case studies in selected regions in Europe, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and Africa from prehistory to present permit to identify specific problem constellations. Solutions are presented in order to enhance the capability of supply systems to adapt to demographic changes.
