Abstract:
The understanding of the scientific meaning of the concept of energy and the principle of the conservation of mechanical energy is affected by various connotations and meanings that the concept and principle have in everyday language use. Young children develop and formulate their own conceptual meanings and understanding of the concepts that often differ from the scientific meanings. These preconceived ideas are termed alternative conceptions of the learners. Learners associate the concept of energy with living and moving objects, in other words, the difficulties experienced by learners in co

Abstract:
Paddlefish (Polyodon spathula) is a commercially and recreationally important species, with a native range that extends over 22 US states. This is a large, long-lived, highly mobile riverine species that has been negatively impacted by habitat fragmentation, historic overharvest, and hatchery supplementation. Dams are the primary cause of habitat fragmentation, blocking migration routes, flooding spawning grounds, and isolating populations. A common management action to mitigate the impacts of habitat fragmentation and maintain harvestable populations is hatchery propagation and stocking. Redu

Abstract:
There is an urgent need to ensure the sustainability of urban water resources. In the face of growing challenges including urbanization, climate change, and increased competition for available resources, new and innovative water management strategies are required. The conventional approach to sustainable urban water management typically focusses on the supply dimension; however, this has proven to be largely inadequate and many are calling for a new approach to addressing this issue.

Cross-sector collaborations, such as those between non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and corporations, are proliferating in conservation.

Abstract:
Abstract Many species and populations have perished as a consequence of human actions. During the last ~200 years, large carnivores have been almost completely extirpated from Western Europe. Large-scale wolf hunting started in Finland around the 1850s, and the population size quickly collapsed. The population was very small until the mid-1990s, when wolves started to regularly reproduce in Finland again. The wolf is an endangered species in Finland, and the biggest threat to the species’ survival is excessive hunting. In this doctoral thesis study, I inspected the genetic structure and divers

Abstract:
From an ecological perspective, knowledge of demographic history is highly valuable because population size fluctuations can be matched to known climatic events, thereby revealing great insight into a species’ reaction to past climate change. This in turn enables us to predict how they might respond to future climate scenarios. Prominently, with the advent of high-throughput sequencing it is now becoming possible to assemble genomes of non-model organisms thereby providing unprecedented resolution to the study of demographic history and speciation. This thesis utilises four species of grouse (

Abstract:
The relationship between petroleum conservation and sustainable development is unquestionable. International Framework Agreements for the development of transboundary hydrocarbon resources play a fundamental role in strengthening petroleum conservation principles. So far the development of transboundary hydrocarbon resources has been mainly about drawing squares and triangles, with conservation as a secondary objective. This thesis examines the role of petroleum conservation in six recent framework agreements. The study is built around the application of conservation principles for the develop

Abstract:
The study of conflicts in conservation (also known as human-wildlife conflicts) is a growing field of research in areas where people and wildlife interact, because of the negative impacts each can have on the other. Addressing conflicts is certainly challenging because of the complexities of considering diverse interests from numerous stakeholders and the specific ecological and socio-economic characteristics of a given study system. No matter how complex the system under study is, the aim is in all cases to find effective and sustainable mitigation strategies for local people, as well as for

Abstract:
Communication about biodiversity loss is insufficient and audiovisual stories can help to effectively communicate the problem. This research developed the optimum communication criteria for communicating effectively about biodiversity loss through audiovisual stories. We created our theoretical framework by combining contemporary research about audiovisual stories concerning science and studies on effective communication about biodiversity loss and conservation. Based on this framework and using relevant multimodal critical discourse analysis tools, we built an analytical model. We applied the

Abstract:
Soil erosion from American cropland poses a problem to society in many ways. Ground and surface water is polluted by chemicals carried on the eroded soil, silt builds up in rivers and other water bodies, soil particles carried by wind pollute the air, and finally there is a decline in the productivity of the remaining cropland soil. The rate that soil is eroded from cropland is directly affected by the type of crops planted, tillage systems used and government agricultural programs. This thesis presents the economic costs of soil erosion from cropland and the private and social benefits that c
