Structured decision making: case studies in natural resource management / Michael C. Runge (2020)  

Public ISBD Titre : Structured decision making: case studies in natural resource management Type de document : livre Auteurs : Michael C. Runge, Éditeur scientifique ; Sarah J. Converse, Éditeur scientifique ; James E. Lyons, Éditeur scientifique ; David R. Smith, Éditeur scientifique Editeur : Baltimore, Maryland : Johns Hopkins University Press Année de publication : 2020 Collection : Wildlife management and conservation Importance : 272 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-4214-3756-9 Prix : 74.95 USD Note générale : ISBN-10 : 1-4214-3756-2 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Natural resources  Resource conservation  Wildlife management  Decision making  Case studies Résumé : La 4ème de couv. indique : When faced with complicated, potentially controversial decisions that affect our environment, many resource management agencies have come to realize the value of structured decision making (SDM)—the systematic use of principles and tools of decision analysis. Few professionals, however, have extensive experience implementing SDM. Structured Decision Making provides key information to both current adopters of the method and those who are deploying it for the first time by demonstrating the formal use of decision analysis to support difficult, real-world natural resource management decisions. Drawing on case studies from multiple public agencies in the United States, Canada, Australia, and Mauritius, the editors present an overview of decision analysis, a classification of decision types, and a catalog of decision analysis methods. Dozens of detailed charts and maps help contextualize the material. These case studies examine a rich variety of topics, including: *keeping forest birds free from disease *conserving imperiled freshwater mussels *managing water for oil sands mining *safeguarding coastal wetlands in the face of sea-level rise *designing networks for prairie-dependent taxa *combatting invasive alpine shrubs *managing vernal pool habitats for obligate amphibian species Aimed at decision makers tackling natural resource challenges in government agencies around the world, as well as advanced undergraduate and graduate students preparing to work in natural resource management, Structured Decision Making shows how SDM can be implemented to achieve optimal outcomes that integrate social values and scientific understanding.

Plant evolution in the Mediterranean: insights for conservation / John D. Thompson (2020)  

Public ISBD Titre : Plant evolution in the Mediterranean: insights for conservation Type de document : livre Auteurs : John D. Thompson, Auteur Mention d'édition : 2nd ed. Editeur : Oxford, UK : Oxford University Press Année de publication : 2020 Importance : 439 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-19-883514-1 Prix : 90.00 GBP Note générale : 2 ex.; Voir aussi la 1ère édition de 2005 à la cote 67296/16; DOI:10.1093/oso/9780198835141.001.0001 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Biodiversity  Biogeography  Ecology  Evolution  Indigenous organisms  History  Mediterranean zone  Plant physiology  Plants  Reproduction  Resource conservation Résumé : Since the first edition of this book published in 2005, there has been an immense amount of new and fascinating work on the history, ecology, and evolution of the Mediterranean flora. During this time, human impacts have continued to increase dramatically, significantly influencing both the ecology and evolution of the region's biota. This timely and comprehensive update of the original text integrates a diverse and scattered literature to produce a synthetic account of Mediterranean plant evolutionary ecology. It maintains the accessible style of its previous version whilst incorporating recent work in a new structural framework. This is not a traditional "plant science" book per se, but a novel integration of history, ecology, biogeography, and evolution, all set in the context of a dramatically increasing human footprint. There is a particular emphasis on the role of human activities as an ecological factor and their subsequent impact on plant evolution. Conversely, it demonstrates how an understanding of the evolutionary ecology of the region's flora can be used to provide insights into its future conservation and management. Plant Evolution in the Mediterranean is aimed at all those who are interested in the biology of the Mediterranean region, whether it is taxonomy, ecology, evolution, conservation policy and management, or the regional history of its biodiversity in general. It will be of relevance and use to all graduate students and researchers of Mediterranean-type ecosystem ecology and geography, as well as professional ecologists, evolutionary biologists, conservation biologists, and environmental practitioners requiring a concise, authoritative overview of the topic.

Population dynamics for conservation / Louis W. Botsford (2019)  

Public ISBD Titre : Population dynamics for conservation Type de document : livre Auteurs : Louis W. Botsford, Auteur ; J. Wilson White, Auteur ; Alan Hastings, Auteur Mention d'édition : 1st ed. Editeur : New York : Oxford University Press, NY Année de publication : 2019 Importance : 338 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-19-875836-5 Prix : 36.99 GBP Note générale : DOI:10.1093/oso/9780198758365.001.0001 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Population dynamics  Behaviour  Mathematical models  Resource conservation  Conservation biology  Marine resources Résumé : Le site éditeur indique : This book is a quantitative exposition of our current understanding of the dynamics of plant and animal populations, with the goal that readers will be able to understand, and participate in the management of populations in the wild. The book uses mathematical models to establish the basic principles of population behaviour. It begins with a philosophical approach to mathematical models of populations. It then progresses from a description of models with a single variable, abundance, to models that describe changes in the abundance of individuals at each age, then similar models that describe populations in terms of the abundance over size, life stage, and space. The book assumes a knowledge of basic calculus, but explains more advanced mathematical concepts such as partial derivatives, matrices, and random signals, as it makes use of them. The book explains the basis of the principles underlying important population processes, such as the mechanism that allow populations to persist, rather than go extinct, the way in which populations respond to variable environments, and the origin of population cycles.The next two chapters focus on application of the principles of population dynamics to manage for the prevention of extinction, as well as the management of fisheries for sustainable, high yields. The final chapter recapitulates how different population behaviors arise in situations with different levels of density dependence and replacement (the potential lifetime reproduction per individual), and how variability arises at different time scales set by a species’ life history.
