As scents are preferentially concentrated around valued resources or boundaries where the likelihood of intrusion is greatest, these strategies are expected to have substantial consequences for resource and territory defence.
Whether an ecosystem is dominated by AMF or EMF associations has large-scale consequences for resource availability, as AMF systems have been recently demonstrated to have lower soil C : N ratios than those dominated by EMF, indicating fundamentally different nutrient cycling regimes, resulting in more carbon sequestered in EMF forests (Averill et al. 2014).
Like all strategic approaches to the management of natural resources, adaptive decision-making can have unintended consequences, often for resources that are not the target of the application.
Longer, drier summers projected for arid and semi-arid regions of western North America under climate change are likely to have enormous consequences for water resources and river-dependent ecosystems.
The effects on socioeconomic systems on the health and integrity of riparian systems has consequences for various resources and ecological services such as bank stability, fish production, water quality, scenic amenities, and recreation.
We undertook a review of the current literature on the removal of, exemption from or waivers of user fees in low- and middle-income countries in relation to RMNH and the consequences for human resources for health working in RMNH.
Developing the capacity to predict and minimise these impacts -- and their harmful consequences for biological resources, ecosystems and human health -- is a daunting task for environmental (and other) legislators and regulators.
Despite the significant role of radical innovation as a driver of firm growth and performance, the consequences of resource constraints for radical innovation outcomes remain unknown.
This study reconstructs droughts during the period 1798 2010 and assesses the consequences for water resource planning, drought management and resilience across the Anglian region (UK).
Additional analyses show that the sensitivity of capital investment efficiency to earnings quality increases in the German market after KTG, suggesting that earnings quality effects of mandatory ICRM reform has positive consequences for capital resource allocation.
The use of tocolytics is central in delaying birth; however, therapeutic options vary in effectiveness and adverse events profiles, which in turn could have consequences for medical resource use and cost of treatment.
