Over the last two decades, natural resource scientists, managers, and policymakers have increasingly endorsed "adaptive management" of land and natural resources.
In response, social scientists worked to understand who off-highway vehicle (OHV) riders were, while natural resource scientists worked to document and mitigate natural resource impacts that were resulting from unmanaged OHV recreation.
As noted, CeNRADS aims "to improve the collective capacity of companies, agencies, and natural resources scientists to thoroughly assess the complex dynamics of changing land use, resource conditions, ecosystem services, and markets" (The Virginia Tech Center for Natural Resources Assessment and Decision Support: Research Projects 2015).
AMP v. Myriad treats genetic material as a product of nature: the genome is a natural resource that scientists discover but do not invent.
TEK must play the role of inviting cross-cultural and cross-situational learning for indigenous and non-indigenous policy makers, natural resource managers, scientists, activists, elders, and youth.
Natural resource managers are asking scientists to provide advice for reducing the downstream flux of N. Here, we propose a framework for prioritizing restoration sites that involves identifying where potential N loads are large due to sizeable sources and efficient delivery to streams, and when the majority of N is exported.
Natural resources and environmental scientists traditionally work with large data sets and over time have developed their own ways to handle scenarios involving massive data.
The GEFSOC soil carbon modelling system was built to provide interdisciplinary teams of scientists, natural resource managers and policy analysts (who have the appropriate computing skills) with the necessary tools to conduct regional-scale soil carbon (C) inventories.
Participants in the CalNat program (often teachers, interpreters, docents, green collar workers, natural resource managers, or budding scientists) complete a 40+ hour science-based curriculum involving hands-on learning, online projects, communication training, and community service.
This review will be helpful to researchers, foresters, natural resource managers and agricultural scientists in selecting the appropriate method for estimation of soil moisture keeping in view the time and resources available to them and to generate information for efficient allocation of water resources and maintenance of soil moisture regime.
