Soutenir une agriculture axée sur la nutrition grâce aux espèces négligées et sous-utilisées: Cadre opérationnel. [PDF]
This joint Bioversity-IFAD publication was developed to guide IFAD and other agencies’ efforts in leveraging neglected and underutilized species (NUS) in support of Nutrition Sensitive Agriculture. It presents a holistic value chain approach for the use

A Global Regionalisation of Tree Functional Capacity
ABSTRACT Aim Understanding the global distribution of tree functional diversity is essential for predicting ecosystem responses to environmental change. Traditional biogeographic regionalisations classify ecosystems based on species composition and climate but overlook functional traits, which directly govern processes such as carbon storage, nutrient ...

ABSTRACT Stocks of the European flat oyster, Ostrea edulis, have collapsed due to overfishing, habitat destruction, and pathogen outbreaks across most of their distribution range. Nonetheless, as a result of lower exploitation pressure and the absence of pathogens in the most northern part of the range, a large part of the remaining wild population can

Les défis de la forêt privée : la conservation, l’utilisation durable de la forêt et l’écotourisme
Aux cours des dernières années, le sort de la forêt publique, principalement boréale, a été au cœur du débat sur la gestion de la forêt québécoise. Pourtant les enjeux de la conservation de la biodiversité sont bien plus grands dans la forêt méridionale ...

Dinámica de ocupación de suelo y de fragmentación de los ecosistemas naturales en el valle central de México [PDF]
El valle central de México es un territorio prioritario para la conservación de la biodiversidad debido a su alto grado de endemismo de especies de flora y fauna. En esta misma zona existe una gran cantidad de Áreas Naturales Protegidas (ANP).

ABSTRACT The Red Fox (Vulpes vulpes) can be hunted as a game species. It may also be listed as a “species likely to cause damage” (ESOD – the acronym in French), for public health reasons among others. Conversely, benefits linked to the presence of foxes are also put forward, such as the predation of rodents carrying zoonotic agents.

Variable Breeding Strategies in a Fluctuating Environment: A Feeding Experiment in Eastern Chipmunks
Observational studies provide limited information about the complex causality linking food anticipation, availability, and the reproduction of consumers. We conducted a feeding experiment on a free‐ranging population of eastern chipmunks, whose reproduction is tightly linked to the occurrence of beech masting events, and investigated how chipmunks ...

Abstract Biodiversity is critical for maintaining ecosystem function but is threatened by increasing anthropogenic pressures. In the Southern Ocean, a highly biologically productive region containing many endemic species, proactive management is urgently needed to mitigate increasing pressures from fishing, climate change, and tourism.

Abstract Natural disturbance‐based management (NDBM) is hypothesized to maintain managed forest ecosystem integrity by reducing differences between natural and managed forests. The effectiveness of this approach often entails local comparisons of species composition or diversity for a variety of biota from managed and unmanaged forests.

L’agriculture de conservation à la croisée des chemins en Afrique et à Madagascar [PDF]
L’agriculture de conservation (AC) obéit à trois principes : travail du sol minimal, couverture du sol permanente et multiculture. Partant de ses avantages avérés pour l’écologie du sol, la séquestration de carbone et son adoption massive dans quelques ...
