We currently have unprecedented opportunities to exploit genetic diversity in the wild soybean and landraces for sustainable enhancement of soybeans.
At a systems level, on-site services can enhance professional development opportunities for local staff (eg. via case conferences, journal clubs, and training in technical procedures), which can lead to a sustainable enhancement to workforce capacity.
Even with these sustainable enhancements, we were able to bring this project in on time and on budget.
The present work focuses on the assessment and the sustainable development enhancement of a ground-based space facility, the European Astronaut Centre (EAC), located in Germany.
The work presented in this paper aims at contributing to sustainable construction through enhancement of durability of concrete structures.
Degradation - the (anthropogenic) loss of biomass in 'forests which remain forests' [1] - is one of the five components included in international policy on Reduced Emissions from Deforestation and Degradation (REDD+), the others being deforestation, forest enhancement, sustainable management of forests (SFM) and conservation [2].
These include reducing deforestation, reducing degradation, forest enhancement, sustainable management of forests, and forest conservation.
The Bali Action Plan included all the essentials of forest improvement i.e. reducing deforestation, conservation and sustainable management and enhancement of forest carbon stocks.
Degradation - the (anthropogenic) loss of biomass in 'forests which remain forests' [ 1] - is one of the five components included in international policy on Reduced Emissions from Deforestation and Degradation (REDD+), the others being deforestation, forest enhancement, sustainable management of forests (SFM) and conservation [ 2].
REDD+ aims to provide positive incentives for developing countries to initiate activities related to reducing carbon emissions, sustainable forest management, and enhancement of forest carbon stock [2].
Hence, the conservation, enhancement and sustainable and equitable use of biodiversity should be accorded high priority in all national environment protection programmes.
