Описание: Presents restoration ecology as the scientific research of restoring disturbed insect ecosystems through human intervention. The book discusses conservation biology, which focuses on preventing the continued degradation of insect populations, and restoration ecology as a positive reversal of this degradation.
Описание: Throughout the world, local, natural wonders are being overrun by hordes of destination seekers intent on capturing nature's majesty. Though the flood of tourists brings economic stability to these regions, the environmental and local community concerns must be taken into consideration. Ecotourism and Community Intervention: Emerging Research and Opportunities examines community intervention strategies and their causal relationship with destination sustainability and destination quality. The book calls for more proactive measures to enhance destination sustainability through ecotourism initiatives in destinations across the globe. The content within this publication examines global business, mass tourism, and resource management. It is designed for conservationists, environmentalists, tour developers, travel agents, policymakers, administrators, managers, and university students.
Описание: The 40 or so species of plover (genus Charadrius) offer key insights into ecological theory pertaining to many sub-disciplines. The editors have gathered international specialists to explore the many challenges faced by plovers.
Описание: La signature le 22 mai 2003 a Kiev de la Convention cadre pour la protection et le developpement durable des Carpates constitue l’acte fondateur de la construction d’un nouvel espace transnational visant la mise en application de politiques environnementales coordonnees a l’echelle du massif de montagne. Cet ouvrage reinvente l’exercice de la monographie regionale en apprehendant cette region des Carpates au prisme des institutions et des organisations qui l’ont objectivee et qui interagissent dans sa gouvernance depuis une dizaine d’annees. Dans cette perspective, les Carpates ne figurent jamais dans cette etude comme un objet en soi, mais comme une region objectivee par des discours, des inscriptions et des pratiques d’acteurs. Grace a une enquete ethnographique menee au secretariat de la Convention des Carpates administre ad interim par le Programme des Nations-Unies pour l’Environnement, cette etude ouvre la boite noire d’institutions environnementales qui restent largement meconnues du grand public et des chercheurs eux-memes. Elle retrace les etapes par lesquelles la region des Carpates prend forme, souvent de maniere contestee, et se trouve progressivement institutionnalisee.

Описание: Tropical dry forests are the most exploited and endangered ecosystems in the world. A combination of climatic and human factors often reduce these forests to patches of dry scrubs or savannas. Because these ecosystems experience a more arduous and less anticipated environment, they are more prone to environmental stress as plant communities are developed. Therefore, urgent research is necessary to understand both the detrimental issues and problem-solving approaches to conserving these important forests.
The Handbook of Research on the Conservation and Restoration of Tropical Dry Forests is a pivotal reference source that combines theory and practice on the current trends and issues in this important ecological subject and discusses future challenges towards conservation strategies of these tropical dry forests. While highlighting topics such as forest management, natural regeneration, and silviculture, this publication examines the anthropogenic impacts on tropical dry forests and the necessity to rebuild their ecosystems. This book is ideally designed for state forest agency professionals, resource managers, non-governmental organization agents, ecologists, botanists, environmentalists, students, and researchers seeking current research on the threats to these forests.
