Abstract The protection of endangered species requires knowledge about the habitat requirements and the genetic issues related to the population viability. In this doctoral thesis, I defined the breeding habitat features of the Finnish populations of the Golden Eagle (Aquila chrysaetos) and the Peregrine Falcon (Falco peregrinus) by applying habitat suitability modelling. Secondly, I studied the conservation genetic issues of the Finnish population of the White-tailed Eagle (Haliaeetus albicilla) and the two Reed Bunting subspecies Emberiza schoeniclus witherbyi and E.s. lusitanica met in the

Abstract:
Global biodiversity is being lost at an unprecedented rate, such that we have entered the sixth mass extinction in the history of the earth with emerging infectious diseases (EID) recognised as an important contributor to this loss. Amphibian chytridiomycosis is an EID that has driven very rapid declines in, or even extinctions of, hundreds of amphibian species. Infectious diseases such as chytridiomycosis, caused by the fungal pathogen Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd), often persist in biological and non-biological reservoirs making them difficult to eradicate.

The USGS 3-D groundwater model MODFLOW is selected and a new shallow surface and groundwater model GSHAW5 is developed for application to mires.

This thesis examines the history of groundwater management through the development of groundwater conservation districts in Texas.

Groundwater was consistently interpreted as a private property right and case law protected unrestricted use for the majority of the twentieth-century even as groundwater resources crossed property and political bound

<p> The bog turtle (<i>Glyptemys muhlenbergii</i>) is listed as threatened under the U.S. Endangered Species Act primarily because of the loss and degradation of its specialized wetland habitat. Adequate nesting habitat may be a limiting factor for bog turtle recovery, and nesting habitat creation or expansion may be an effective conservation tool but only if managers understand nesting behaviors, habitat requirements, and threats to nest success. The objective of this study was to understand the nesting ecology of the bog turtle and to use this information to suggest improvements to bog turtl

Grass-roots conservation efforts, implemented at the local level, have become increasingly popular within the U.S. and abroad. The conservation and natural resource literature has touted these initiatives as more effective when compared to top-down management efforts. As localities are given more responsibility for managing their own natural resources, their ability to do so effectively has become a major concern.

Abstract:
Since pastoralism began in Australia???s rangelands, the number of artificial watering points (AWPs) has increased dramatically, such that today, few areas of rangeland are further than 10 km from water. This increased availability of water has caused many ecological impacts. Unfortunately, such impacts are poorly understood in the context of an Australian conservation reserve, thus hindering strategic management. This study examined the spatial distribution of vertebrate (kangaroos, small mammals, lizards and avifauna) and vegetative variables around open AWPs as well as AWPs that have been c

Modelling in both one-dimensional and two-dimensional approaches were tested and analyzed for the same river reach. Flood Modeller is proven a viable tool for flood modeling within the United States when compared to HEC-RAS. Application of the
