This volume focuses on diverse systems/sustainability. Included are component subjects of relevance with coverage of frontier research from subject specialists in different areas. Following a co-authored introduction to establish balance and context, indication of the current state of research in component chapters will be marked. The volume unites multiple subject areas within sustainability, enabling the techniques applied in each chapter to be applied to other chapter areas in future research, giving a synergistic function for knowledge advancement, interdisciplinary cooperation as well as policy formation/governance and subsequent areas. Each of the chapters of this book provides description of frontier research which may be applied in different locations and groups as well as those specifically mentioned. Together the chapters give indication of how we may proceed to advance related disciplines with use of systematic approaches. Each chapter provides a unique perspective of leading international authorities, encouraging advancement and enrichment of knowledge and understanding of sustainability within diverse systems, whilst managing subject knowledge, development and application for the benefit of multiple, expansive populations.
