Conservation Science

2006
Conservation of artefacts and heritage materials is an increasingly popular and fascinating area, spanning both historical and scientific disciplines. Materials come in many forms ranging from sunken ships to tapestries, from buildings to books. With this wide range of matrices and materials to analyse and preserve, an interdisciplinary approach is ...

Cultivating Creativity in Conservation Science

Conservation Biology, 2013
Abstract Conservation practitioners and scientists are often faced with seemingly intractable problems in which traditional approaches fail. While other sectors (e.g., business) frequently emphasize creative thinking to overcome complex challenges, creativity is rarely identified as an essential skill for conservationists.

Effective Conservation Science

2017
This book gathers together 28 personal stories told by leading thinkers and practitioners in conservation – all of whom have something to say about the uncomfortable tension that arises when data meet dogma. Together, they make a powerful argument for conservation science that measures effectiveness and evolves in response to new data, rather than ...

Standardizing science for conservation

Science, 2019
Ecology Assessments of biodiversity and human impacts on the environment often rely on species distribution models that make data-supported predictions of species survival in changing environments. However, no agreed-upon standards for evaluating these models exist, and their application to conservation policy is inconsistent. Araujo et al.

DNA science and conservation

Pacific Conservation Biology, 1995
A wide array of DNA-based genetic techniques are now available for the study of many problems in conservation biology. Either directly or indirectly, such techniques are becoming increasingly available to scientists and managers alike. Although these technologies are generally known to conservationists, there is a need to clearly outline the principal ...

What is Conservation Science?

Macromolecular Symposia, 2006
Abstract‘Conservation science’ or ‘cultural heritage research’ is defined through a discussion of research needs, training and employment patterns world‐wide, and trends in published work. Parallels with mainstream polymer science are drawn throughout. Some aspects are discussed in more detail: traditional paint composites; studies in modern, synthetic,
