It also has tropical forests and extensive biodiversity [1].
To complete the species list, I would organize extensive biodiversity sampling in yet-unexplored or difficult-to-reach areas and in environments that require expensive specialized equipment.
Recently, more extensive biodiversity and environmental impact studies have been developed [316], [318], [330], [331] and a complete environmental baseline is compiled in Martín et al. [329].
Extensive surveys of biodiversity in protected and managed areas have not been conducted for a majority of taxonomic groups and ecosystem types, which makes it difficult to assess how large a portion of biodiversity is at least potentially under protection.
These results have management implications and confirm that, in the CTNP, extensive agriculture and biodiversity are compatible, and that maintaining traditional irrigation systems will benefit amphibian populations, especially in the case of drier climate scenarios.
More extensive stress testing of biodiversity indicators would enhance knowledge of how biodiversity is changing, show whether the existing indicators can measure that change, and help identify the most appropriate policies to counteract biodiversity declines.
Epibenthic sleds, sledges and dredges have been widely used for sampling deep-sea macro and megafaunal communities, providing extensive information on benthic biodiversity and distribution patterns.
We conclude that, while multifunctionality is a genuine, and in some respects, unique, feature of European agriculture, it is in relation to the perceived threat of extensive agricultural restructuring to biodiversity and landscape values in the European Union that the concept has been most fully realized.
Potentially this has extensive negative consequences for biodiversity in these areas.
There has been extensive effort to quantify the biodiversity response to climate change.
A decline in summer farming practices, during the twentieth century, has caused a large-scale encroachment of trees and shrubs leading to extensive landscape changes and decreased biodiversity.
