This confirms the importance to develop and implement tools allowing a more permanent and at a larger scale monitoring of PC in Switzerland.
A network for intrusion detection in government computers, called Fidnet, was proposed late in the Clinton administration but never created because of assertions that the system might be used as a large-scale monitoring network for citizens' online communications.
The role of tree diversity on crown defoliation was assessed in a large-scale monitoring network.
In this paper, the benefits of taking into account these three dimensions are illustrated with results derived from the Great Britain Countryside Surveys (CS), a large-scale monitoring programme designed to assess change in the extent and ecological condition of British habitats.
In addition, we used bat monitoring data of a large-scale monitoring study on the Schwäbische Alb and in the Hainich-Dün that was conducted in the vicinity of the study trees.
A large-scale monitoring study in both regions in the vicinity of the study oaks showed higher numbers of foliage-gleaning bat species in the Hainich-Dün (seven species) compared with the Schwäbische Alb (four species).
In a conservation landscape in northern Republic of Congo we demonstrate the application of a large-scale monitoring program designed to evaluate the impact of conservation interventions on three globally threatened species: western gorillas, chimpanzees and forest elephants, under three land-use types: integral protection, commercial logging, and community-based natural resource management.
The emerging field of wireless sensor networks offers countless possibilities for achieving large scale monitoring in a distributed environment.
Therefore, even though the heterogeneity of the land use increases the spatial variability (as expected), soil moisture exhibits a significant temporal stability and its large scale monitoring from few observations is still feasible.
Consistent reporting of the uncertainty would increase the comparability of DGT measurements, which is highly desirable, especially if DGT is to be used in large scale monitoring programs, as a decision-support tool in environmental impact assessment, and in agronomic nutrient testing.
In this study ELISA results showed a good agreement with culture and this assay has been a pivotal tool for the diagnosis and cost-effective large scale monitoring of TB in this area.
