This discussion of conceptual, empirical and methodological issues collectively suggests that ecosystem valuation can provide critical input into the design and evaluation of conservation and development policies in the tropics.
As an organizational theme for our evaluation of evolutionary and conservation genetics in Gila and Yaqui topminnows, three major types of genetic variation – neutral, detrimental, and adaptive – can be used (Hedrick 2001).
Building on labor market evaluations and legacy conservation motivation perspectives, we propose a mechanism to explain the relationship between CEO career horizons and breakthrough innovations.
Taking a comparative approach across Kenyan and Tanzanian study sites, these data allow evaluation of conservation and poverty reduction policies and practices.
Three additional influenza strains found in the current 2012 2013 TIV [A/California/07/2009(H1N1), A/Victoria/361/2011(H3N2), and B/Wisconsin/01/2010] were also downloaded for evaluation of conservation and cross-protection with EpiMatrix-identified H7N9 T cell epitopes.
Information on wildlife habitat distribution and change is crucial for the design and evaluation of conservation efforts.
On the other hand, conservation genetics implements genetic tools and approaches to estimate parameters that are important for the design and evaluation of conservation plans, such as past population growth rates, effective population sizes, migration rates, and other demographic parameters.
Preliminary results are exemplified with respect to habitat modelling, nature conservation evaluation, and economic modelling of two management scenarios.
Information on sediment yield from a catchment is very often required for planning, designing and evaluation of soil conservation projects, design and operation of reservoirs, environmental and water pollution control measures, and drought and flood control programs.
The microsatellite markers described here are the first developed for the genus Bathysa and will be useful for genetic, ecological, and conservation management evaluations.
