Wildlife as property owners: a new conception of animal rights / Karen Bradshaw (2020)  

Public ISBD Titre : Wildlife as property owners: a new conception of animal rights Type de document : livre Auteurs : Karen Bradshaw, Auteur Editeur : Chicago, Illinois : The University of Chicago Press Année de publication : 2020 Importance : 203 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-226-57136-2 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Biodiversity  Animal rights  Wildlife  Property rights  Land tenure Résumé : La 4ème de couv. indique : Humankind coexists with every other living thing. People drink the same water, breathe the same air, and share the same land as other animals. Yet, property law reflects a general assumption that only people can own land. The effects of this presumption are disastrous for wildlife and humans alike. The alarm bells ringing about biodiversity loss are growing louder, and the possibility of mass extinction is real. Anthropocentric property is a key driver of biodiversity loss, a silent killer of species worldwide. But as law and sustainability scholar Karen Bradshaw shows, if excluding animals from a legal right to own land is causing their destruction, extending the legal right to own property to wildlife may prove its salvation. Wildlife as Property Owners advocates for folding animals into our existing system of property law, giving them the opportunity to own land just as humans do—to the betterment of all.

Wildlife and wind farms, conflicts and solutions: vol. 3: offshore: potential effects / Martin R. Perrow (2019)  

Public ISBD Titre : Wildlife and wind farms, conflicts and solutions: vol. 3: offshore: potential effects Type de document : livre Auteurs : Martin R. Perrow, Éditeur scientifique Editeur : Exeter : Pelagic Publishing Année de publication : 2019 Collection : Conservation handbooks Importance : 291 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-78427-127-5 Prix : 50.00 GBP Note générale : Voir aussi les vol. 1, 2 et 4 (cotes 69715-69716, 69718) Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Animal ecology  Biodiversity conservation  Wildlife  Wind power  Impact assessment  Marine environment  Atmosphere  Marine mammals  Seabirds  Fish Résumé : Wind farms are an essential component of global renewable energy policy and the action to limit the effects of climate change. There is, however, considerable concern over the impacts of wind farms on wildlife, leading to a wide range of research and monitoring studies, a growing body of literature and several international conferences on the topic. This unique multi-volume work provides a comprehensive overview of the interactions between wind farms and wildlife. Volume 3 documents the current knowledge of the potential effects upon wildlife during both construction and operation of offshore wind farms. An introductory chapter on the nature of wind farms and the legislation surrounding them is followed by a series of in-depth chapters documenting effects on physical processes, atmosphere and ocean dynamics, seabed communities, fish, marine mammals, migratory birds and bats and seabirds. A synopsis of the known and potential effects of wind farms upon wildlife concludes the volume. The authors have been carefully selected from across the globe from the large number of academics, consultants and practitioners now engaged in wind farm studies, for their influential contribution to the science. Edited by Martin Perrow and with contributions by 30 leading researchers including: Göran Broström, Steven Degraer, Mike Elliot, Andrew Gill, Ommo Hüppop, Georg Nehls and Nicolas Vanermen. The authors represent a wide range of organisations and institutions including the Universities of Gothenburg, Hamburg and Hull, Alfred Wegener Institute, Cefas (UK), Research Institute for Nature and Forest (INBO), Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences, Vattenfall and several leading consultancies. Each chapter includes informative figures, tables, colour photographs and detailed case studies, including some from invited authors to showcase exciting new research.

Wildlife and wind farms, conflicts and solutions: vol. 4: offshore: monitoring and mitigation / Martin R. Perrow (2019)  

Public ISBD Titre : Wildlife and wind farms, conflicts and solutions: vol. 4: offshore: monitoring and mitigation Type de document : livre Auteurs : Martin R. Perrow, Éditeur scientifique Editeur : Exeter : Pelagic Publishing Année de publication : 2019 Collection : Conservation handbooks Importance : 330 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-78427-131-2 Prix : 50.00 GBP Note générale : Voir aussi les vol. 1 à 3 (cotes 69715 à 69717) Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Animal ecology  Biodiversity conservation  Wildlife  Wind power  Impact assessment  Invertebrates  Marine mammals  Birds  Seabirds  Chiroptera  Fish  Biotelemetry  Monitoring  Mitigation Résumé : Wind farms are an essential component of global renewable energy policy and the action to limit the effects of climate change. There is, however, considerable concern over the impacts of wind farms on wildlife, leading to a wide range of research and monitoring studies, a growing body of literature and several international conferences on the topic. This unique multi-volume work provides a comprehensive overview of the interactions between wind farms and wildlife. Volume 4 provides a state-of-the-science guide to monitoring and mitigation to minimise or even eliminate impacts on wildlife from offshore wind farms. The survey and monitoring section includes detailed chapters on fish and invertebrate communities, marine mammals and seabirds, and a chapter dedicated to the use of tracking technology applied to birds. The section continues with a chapter on collision risk and population modelling that underpins much current impact assessment, and a chapter detailing how collision risk for birds and bats may be monitored at sea. The mitigation section comprises chapters outlining mitigation options and strategies for birds and bats, and how to mitigate the effects of noise, especially during construction, on marine mammals and fish. A chapter on perspectives on marine spatial planning as applied to wind farms concludes the volume. The authors have been carefully selected from across the globe from the large number of academics, consultants and practitioners now engaged in wind farm studies, for their influential contribution to the science. Edited by Martin Perrow and with contributions by over 40 leading researchers including: Aonghais Cook, Thomas Dahlgren, Johann Köppel, Meike Scheidat, Henrik Skov, Chris Thaxter & Frank Thomsen. The authors represent a wide range of organisations and institutions including the Universities of Gothenberg, Ghent, Highlands & Islands and Wageningen, Chalmers University of Technology and Technical University of Berlin, British Trust for Ornithology, The Carbon Trust, Institute of Avian Research Vogelwarte Helgoland, Institute for Applied Ecosystem Research (IfAÖ), Norwegian Institute for Nature Research (NINA) and Sea Mammal Research Unit (SMRU); as well as several leading consultancies. Each chapter includes informative figures, tables, photographs and detailed case studies. Several of the latter are produced stand-alone from invited specialists to ensure geographic spread and to showcase exciting new research. This book is designed as the definitive guide on the topic for practitioners, researchers, managers and planners as well as students in higher education engaged in studies of the environment, ecology, climate change, conservation and impact assessment.
