Environmental management of the buffer zones of conservation units in urban area
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)
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.

The role of introgression and ecotypic parallelism in delineating intraspecific conservation units
Parallel evolution can occur through selection on novel mutations, standing genetic variation or adaptive introgression. Uncovering parallelism and introgressed populations can complicate management of threatened species as parallelism may have ...

Field sports and conservation in the United Kingdom [PDF]
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 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 ...
