Sustainability science: a review, an analysis and some empirical lessons
Environmental Conservation - Tập 38 Số 3 - Trang 275-287 - 2011
Joachim H. Spangenberg
SUMMARYSustainability science has developed from a new research field into a vibrant discipline in its own right, with scientific conferences, journals and scientific societies dedicated to its pursuit. Characterized more by its research purpose than by a common set of methods or objects, sustainability science can be subdivided into the more traditional disciplina...... hiện toàn bộ
Resources use, conservation attitudes, management intervention and park-people relations in the Western Terai landscape of Nepal
Environmental Conservation - Tập 34 Số 1 - Trang 64-72 - 2007
Nabin Baral, Joel T. Heinen
Various conservation models have been implemented in Nepal since 1973, however their impacts on resources use and conservation attitudes are scarcely known. To address the hypothesis that conservation attitudes should improve around protected areas (PAs) with more social and economic interventions, stratified random questionnaire surveys of 234 households were conducted in two PAs in the W...... hiện toàn bộ

The continental shelf benthic ecosystem: current status, agents for change and future prospects
Environmental Conservation - Tập 29 Số 3 - Trang 350-374 - 2002
Stephen J. Hall
Continental shelf benthic ecosystems play an important role in the economy of many coastal states through the provision of food, non-living resources and through control of climate. Changes in the status of these ecosystems, through either natural or human-induced environmental drivers can be expected to have important economic and social consequences. Agents that could induce change inclu...... hiện toàn bộ
Local law enforcement and illegal bushmeat hunting outside the Serengeti National Park, Tanzania
Environmental Conservation - Tập 34 Số 1 - Trang 55-63 - 2007
Tomas Holmern, John Muya, Eivin Røskaft
Law enforcement is crucial to curb unsustainable and illegal exploitation of plant and animal populations. This paper investigates the temporal pattern of illegal hunting activity and factors that influence the probability of Village Game Scouts (VGSs) arresting illegal hunters outside the Serengeti National Park (Tanzania). A total of 201 patrols were conducted during nine months between ...... hiện toàn bộ
Collection and marketing of non-timber forest products in the far western hills of Nepal
Environmental Conservation - Tập 33 Số 3 - Trang 244-255 - 2006
Sagun Bista, Edward L. Webb
Non–timber forest product (NTFP) use is an integral part of the rural economy of Nepal, but little is known about NTFP collection and marketing dynamics. This study investigated the intensity of NTFP collection, the financial benefits gained through the collection of a representative species, and the contextual factors influencing NTFP collection and sale in 12 villages of the Baitadi dist...... hiện toàn bộ
Ecosystem structure, economic cycles and market-oriented conservation
Environmental Conservation - Tập 28 Số 3 - Trang 194-198 - 2001
Carolyn Crook, Roger Alex Clapp
Whether market-oriented conservation, by which we mean the promotion of markets for the products of intact ecosystems, protects biodiversity, and under what conditions, has been a subject of much research and debate. Our evaluation of three strategies of the market-oriented use of natural resources led us to conclude that, at least for these three strategies, market-oriented mechanisms of ...... hiện toàn bộ
Natural resource use, crop damage and attitudes of rural people in the vicinity of the Maputo Elephant Reserve, Mozambique
Environmental Conservation - Tập 25 Số 3 - Trang 208-218 - 1998
W.F. de Boer, DULCINEIA S. BAQUETE
Participation by local communities in management is widely considered a means of sustaining protected areas. In parts of the world with a history of armed conflict, the chances of such an approach being successfully adopted might seem remote. One such area is the Maputo Elephant Reserve in southern Mozambique. The aim was to improve understanding of the local people's use of natural resour...... hiện toàn bộ
Importance and impacts of intermediary boundary organizations in facilitating payment for environmental services in Vietnam
Environmental Conservation - Tập 37 Số 1 - Trang 64-72 - 2010
Phạm T.T., Bruce M. Campbell, Stephen T. Garnett, Heather J. Aslin, Minh Ha Hoang
SUMMARYIntermediaries are seen as important actors in facilitating payments for environmental services (PES). However, few data exist on the adequacy of the services provided by intermediaries and the impacts of their interventions. Using four PES case studies in Vietnam, this paper analyses the roles of government agencies, non-government organizations, internatio...... hiện toàn bộ
Processes of wetland loss in India
Environmental Conservation - Tập 23 Số 1 - Trang 45-54 - 1996
A. Lee Foote, Sanjeeva Pandey, Naomi Krogman
SummaryWetlands in India supply crucial human and animal needs such as drinking water, protein production, fodder, water purification, wildlife habitat, and flood storage. Increased appreciation of uses and threats is essential to protect wetlands where justified. Three quarters of India's population is rural, it places great demands on India's wetlands and losses ...... hiện toàn bộ
