Abstract:

Natural disturbance dynamics, such as fire, have a fundamental control on forest composition and structure. Knowledge of fire history and the dominant drivers of fire are becoming increasingly important for conservation and management practice. Temporal and spatial variability in biomass burning is examined here using 170 charcoal and 15 fire scar records collated throughout Fennoscandia and Denmark. The changing fire regime is discussed in relation to local biogeographical controls, regional climatic change, anthropogenic land use and fire suppression. The region has experienced episodic vari

Abstract:

The relatively small number of Coníferas in Europe is discussed in relation to their ancient species richness and to their higher number on other continents. The listed 38 native European species make up a heterogeneous group; some of them with wide distribution, some other ones with extremely small natural range. The importance of all species is emphasised, not neglecting introduced species. The history of the Norway spruce network is briefly described. In the beginning of the second phase of EUFORGEN other Coníferas besides Picea abies are included. The crucial importance of regeneration in

This Article opens with a discussion of the Vermont Natural Gas and Oil Conservation Act. In this section, the Act's statutory purposes, its main features and themes, and the role of the Vermont Natural Gas and Oil Resources Board are considered. The Act is examined in comparison to the 2004 Model Oil and Gas Conservation Act. The second part of this Article is devoted to H. 464. In this section, the potential for developing unconventional oil and gas resources in Vermont is discussed, along with H. 464's legislative history and key provisions.

SUMMARYMediterranean ecosystems are biodiversity hotspots, however translating conservation need into implementation has been hindered by their function as working landscapes that integrate both human and natural components. This paper compares oak woodland working landscapes in California and Portugal: can conservation policy be reshaped to conserve Mediterranean oak woodland ecosystems with differing sociopolitical cultural contexts? Each oak woodland's cultural-historical legacy and socioecological system (SES) is described, and how each system can cross-inform improvements to conservation

Abstract:

Since the concept of sustainable development gained traction in the early 70s, there has been demand for new approaches, perspectives, and practices to the conservation of natural resources.

They are shaped by Faith- Based Environmental Conservation, theoretical developments on environmental governance of the commons (e.g. Community Based Natural Resources Management), and social capital.

Later, certain religious groups were vocal in their support for or opposition to state-sponsored conservation schemes in the colonial period.

An outcome of the conservation process pertains to disruptions in livelihood of the local communities, that have for generations, used the park’s natural resources and therefore, had become a part of its natural evolution.

Abstract:

Coffea stenophylla is a rare Coffea species boasting a flavor profile comparable to Arabica coffee (Coffea arabica) and has a good adaptability to lowland tropical climates. This species faces increasing threats from climate change, deforestation, and habitat fragmentation in its West African homeland. Using 1037 novel SNP markers derived from Genotyping-by-Sequencing (GBS), we revealed the presence of three distinct natural populations (mean Fst = 0.176) in Sierra Leone. Evidence of recent bottlenecks and small effective population size (118–140) was found across all three populations, reflec

Abstract:

AbstractThis article considers the formation of moral and ethical worlds in India, drawing largely on cases reporting on modern times, as people interact with or imagine the landscapes in which they live. Questions of ethics, and how they are animated in practical existence through the experience of emotional ties and affective attachments to nature, near and far, have not always informed the writing of environmental history in India. In contrast, scholars in disciplines other than history have often paid attention to ethical and religious ideas about landscape and nature. This review argues t

AbstractThis article examines the sylvan political ecology of late colonial New Spain and the colonial government's attempt to address deforestation through the Council on Forests, the first body in the kingdom's history dedicated to the conservation of natural resources. Drawing primarily from the corpus of documents produced by and remitted to the council, this article gives a trans-regional perspective on colonial forest use and argues that the Spanish crown's usurpation of indigenous communities’ eminent domain over forests was the first step in a process that over centuries progressively

Even in the politically fragmented China of the 1920s, their research on deforestation, streamflow, and erosion benefited from alliances with Shanxi's regional powerholder, Yan Xishan, and produced environmental knowledge that furthered th

Abstract:

From the late 1980s to the mid-1990s, biodiversity went from being an arcane, technical way of thinking about natural resources, to an important object of political concern and planning in Ecuador. This historically novel relationship to biological resources was catalyzed in large part by Ecuador’s National Herbarium. The Herbarium’s work modif ed existing regimes for managing plant resources during a time of economic crisis, and served as infrastructure for the field of biodiversity conservation in the country by helping to prioritize geographic regions for intervention.

<em>Cochlearia polonica</em> Fröhl. (<em>Brassicaceae</em>) is one of the rarest species in the Polish and European flora and a taxon endemic to a very small area in southern Poland. Due to industrial activities and subsequent transformation of habitats it was extinct in all natural localities around 1994. The persistence of the species was ensured thanks to the active protection efforts including a series of transplantations based on the material from the last and decreasing natural population.

It also critically examines how a westernized masculine faith in science and technology drove Cold War anxieties and developments, justifying military and naval invasions of the sparsely populated northern ar

Whales are unique museum objects that have entered collections in many ways and for different reasons. This work studies three Nordic natural history museum collections in Norway and Denmark with more than 2,500 whale specimens in total, and gathers the available biological and collection data on the specimens, which include skeletal elements, foetuses and organs preserved in ethanol or formalin, and a few dry-preserved organs. It finds that influx of specimens, which were mainly locally common species that were hunted, to the collections, mainly happened in the latest 1800s and earliest 1900s
