Her father owns Upland Resource, an investment firm in Greenwich.
For example, the current King County buffer system may limit R. aurora from accessing breeding wetlands and other water and upland terrestrial resources beyond those buffers.
These results emphasize that effective management of amphibian breeding locations via protection of both aquatic and adjacent upland terrestrial resources likely requires detailed information regarding variation in movements between the sexes and among seasonal activity periods.
Further, forests on oceanic islands are quite important to the provisioning of ecosystem goods and services, including fresh water supply, prevention and mitigation of soil erosion that can deplete upland soil resources and pollute aquatic ecosystems including coral reefs [10], and both timber and non-timber forest products.

By contrast, New Jersey environmental agencies have spent $49 million to establish such an upland disposal resource in the "brownfields" or old industrial areas around Newark Bay for its most toxic of dredge mud.
Because we are now facing global population expansion and a growing shortage of water resources, upland rice and especially knowledge about its genetic mechanisms for dry land adaptation become more important as they allow the possibility of transforming or modifying high-yield irrigated varieties of rice to upland ones.
Furthermore, the valuable genetic resources within upland rice, which were ignored by most previous studies, are also worthy of enhanced utilization.
Information needed for resource evaluation includes upland depth to water, recharge rate, and aquifer permeability.
This study provides an example of how to assess the impacts of human interventions on the landscape, and what may be the extent of their effects, for other catchments where the human use of the natural resources in the uplands can jeopardise the use of natural resources downstream.
