You can swim but you can't hide: the global status and conservation of oceanic pelagic sharks and rays
Tập 18 Số 5 - Trang 459-482 - 2008
Have we neglected the societal importance of sand dunes? An ecosystem services perspective
Tập 20 Số 4 - Trang 476-487 - 2010
Abstract Coastal sand dunes are widespread worldwide, including around the
coasts of the British Isles and Europe, providing a wide range of functions some
of which are recognized for their socio‐economic benefits. In some localities,
their contribution to coastal defence and to tourism and regional character have
been acknowledged in local plans, but this is far from ubiquitous. A rapid
assessmen...
The Alliance for Freshwater Life: A global call to unite efforts for freshwater biodiversity science and conservation
Tập 28 Số 4 - Trang 1015-1022 - 2018
Abstract Global pressures on freshwater ecosystems are high and rising. Viewed
primarily as a resource for humans, current practices of water use have led to
catastrophic declines in freshwater species and the degradation of freshwater
ecosystems, including their genetic and functional diversity. Approximately
three‐quarters of the world's inland wetlands have been lost, one‐third of the
28 000 fr...
Geophysical approaches to the classification, delineation and monitoring of marine habitats and their communities
Tập 13 Số 1 - Trang 77-90 - 2003
Abstract If marine environments are to be systematically protected from the
adverse effects of human activities, then identification of the types of marine
habitats and the communities they contain, and delineation of their boundaries
utilizing a consistent classification is required. Human impacts on defined
communities can then be assessed, the ‘health’ of these communities can be
monitored, and...
Merging top‐down and bottom‐up approaches in marine protected areas planning: experiences from around the globe
Tập 24 Số S2 - Trang 128-144 - 2014
ABSTRACTFive case studies from around the world illustrate key lessons in
integrating top‐down and bottom‐up approaches to stakeholder and community
engagement in the planning and implementation of marine protected areas
(MPAs).Community resistance to MPA proposals from centralized agencies can be
addressed through effective participatory processes with consistent engagement
over time, transparenc...
Whole‐community facilitation by beaver: ecosystem engineer increases waterbird diversity
Tập 24 Số 5 - Trang 623-633 - 2014
ABSTRACTWetlands are rich in biodiversity, but globally threatened. After a long
period of regional extirpation, beavers have recently returned to many European
areas and are now restoring wetlands. The beaver is remarkable regarding the
large impacts it has not only on individual species but on entire communities
and ecosystems. In fact, beavers are referred to as ‘ecosystem engineers’.The
facili...

Review of climate change impacts on marine fisheries in the UK and Ireland
Tập 22 Số 3 - Trang 368-388 - 2012
ABSTRACT Commercial fishing is an important socio‐economic activity in coastal
regions of the UK and Ireland. Ocean–atmospheric changes caused by greenhouse
gas emissions are likely to affect future fish and shellfish production, and
lead to increasing challenges in ensuring long‐term sustainable fisheries
management. The paper reviews existing knowledge and understanding of the
exposure of marine...
Ecology, management, and conservation implications of North American beaver(Castor canadensis)in dryland streams
Tập 24 Số 3 - Trang 391-409 - 2014
ABSTRACTAfter near‐extirpation in the early 20th century, beaver populations are
increasing throughout many parts of North America. Simultaneously, there is an
emerging interest in employing beaver activity for stream restoration in arid
and semi‐arid environments (collectively, ‘drylands’), where streams and
adjacent riparian ecosystems are expected to face heightened challenges from
climate chan...
The role of pond management for biodiversity conservation in an agricultural landscape
Tập 22 Số 5 - Trang 626-638 - 2012
ABSTRACT Debate surrounds the best way to deal with pond terrestrialization so
as to maximize landscape‐scale biodiversity. One way of addressing this issue is
to re‐set succession via management activities, but the merits of this approach
relative to non‐intervention and pond creation are little known. Manor Farm in
Norfolk, UK, possesses around 40 ponds, and each year three to four ponds are
sub...
