Our method of core structure extraction includes some arbitrary parameters, among which the two most important ones are CONS_RATIO and MAX_GAP, which define the degree of conservation required for core genes and the neighborhood of each gene, respectively (note that we set NBR_CONS_RATIO = CONS_RATIO).
In particular, the EPA has not produced the reports it's required to deliver on the impact the RFS is having on conservation (required every three years) and air quality (two reports no later than December of 2010).
Trading the service of conservation requires one to define a metric that determines the extent to which a conserved site adds to the regional conservation objective.
The future of marine mammal conservation requires better information on the population status and the relationships of marine mammals with their ecosystems, as well as greater understanding of the effects of human-induced activities.
Advancing the science of water conservation requires multiple, strategic partnerships at every step of the way.
Evaluations of the coastal and marine conservation require detailed maps of types of communities that occur in the zone.
Nature conservation requires the full consideration of palaeoecological knowledge in an ecological context, along with the synergistic cooperation of palaeoecologists with neoecologists, anthropologists, and conservation scientists.
A major difficulty in generalization is that mass conservation requires the concentration of a virtual component to be zero, which causes numerical problems.
Effective mangrove conservation requires the determination of species identity, management units, and genetic structure.
To gather comparable ecological data from other species to help in their conservation requires the use of animal-borne radios (Jouventin and Weimerskirch, 1990; Rutz et al., 2007; Burger and Shaffer, 2008) or GPS loggers (Gagliardo et al., 2007; Schofield et al., 2007; Cagnacci et al., 2010), the trackers of which are too big for insects (Wikelski et al., 2007).
