Harnessing genomics for delineating conservation units. [PDF]
Trends Ecol Evol, 2012 Genomic data have the potential to revolutionize the delineation of conservation units (CUs) by allowing the detection of adaptive genetic variation, which is otherwise difficult for rare, endangered species. In contrast to previous recommendations, we propose that the use of neutral versus adaptive markers should not be viewed as alternatives. Rather,

Environmental management of the buffer zones of conservation units in urban area
Territorium: Revista Portuguesa de riscos, prevenção e segurança, 2011 This article examines, from a legal standpoint, the importance of the definition, diagnosis and establishment of criteria for the use, occupation and monitoring of buffer zones for conservation units of integral protection. The management of conservation

Geoconservation Initiatives in the State of Paraná (Brazil)
Geoconservation Research, 2023 Even though geoconservation has advanced significantly in the last few decades, general awareness of its importance is limited, especially in Brazil. Here, we present an overview of geoconservation actions and initiatives in the state of Paraná.

Field sports and conservation in the United Kingdom [PDF]
Nature, 2003 Many natural habitats exist on privately owned land outside protected areas, but few governments can afford to enforce or subsidize conservation of this biodiversity. Even in some developed countries, conservation subsidy schemes have only achieved limited success.

Remote Sensing, 2020 Remote sensing tools have been long used to monitor landscape dynamics inside and around protected areas. Hereto, scientists have largely relied on land use and land cover (LULC) data to derive indicators for monitoring these dynamics, but these metrics ...
