So, Rachel I. "Does Additional Habitat Protection Facilitate the Recovery of Species Protected by the Endangered Species Act?" Thèse, Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa, 2014. http://hdl.handle.net/10393/30910.

Full text

Abstract:

Earlier studies have found that endangered species recovery is only weakly associated with the tools enabled by the U.S. Endangered Species Act (ESA). With habitat loss often cited as a leading cause of species declines, we tested whether the recovery of ESA-listed species is instead associated with the protection of critical habitat (CH) by protected areas. We tested the relationship for 299 species using recovery indices derived from the biennial status reports to Congress (1990-2010), as well as NatureServe and IUCN population status data. We found no overall relationship between recover

Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the potential for protecting critical resplendent quetzal habitat on private lands bordering the south-western edge of the Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve, Costa Rica. First, a habitat analysis was made of 12 forest patches using a 10% strip method to obtain an importance value for the Lauraceae fed on by the resplendent quetzal. Second, a landowner survey was conducted using a structured interview questionnaire to determine landowner attitudes, and the possible factors influencing these attitudes, towards forested land, wildlife, the resplendent quetz

<p> This research study focused on identifying the protection of critical infrastructures and enhancing cybersecurity. The most recent cyber practice that is in place to protect critical infrastructures was also explored. From the literature review, it was concluded there are security loopholes in critical infrastructures. The study also uncovered that the federal government uses the newest cybersecurity tools, but does not share cyber vulnerabilities and risks with the private sector operating the infrastructures. The study also included an in-depth examination of Congressional document

Abstract:

This is an inter-disciplinary thesis that uses social science methodology to examine the impact of ethics, privacy and trust in areas as apparently diverse as online advertising, national security surveillance measures, and the protection of critical infrastructures. The issues examined range from behavioural advertising to the public reaction to revelations of mass data surveillance by government security agencies. Academic research on privacy and the threat to users posed by vast amounts of personal information available online is summarised, along with challenges this poses for legislators.

Detected high-risk events invoke a fuzzy-auction Multi-Robot Task Allocation (MRTA) algorithm to create a response group for each detected risk.

The securities market was built around this legislation, which helped to stimulate the economy by attracting investor.

Critical social work theories have taken a prominent place in Canadian social work curriculums and academic social work literature in recent years. The prevalence of critical social work theory is understandable considering that the content of critical theories can help social workers grapple with how to carry out a practice that is centrally concerned with social justice. However, critical social work theories have generally been presented abstractly, with little attention placed upon the particular contexts of social work practice. As a result, not much is known about how critical social wor

The acceptance of the theory of the duties of protection isstrongly conditioned by systemic features of each legal order. if the premise and the scope of the doctrine are overlooked, and its historical and dogmatic location is dissociated from it, eventually it will be created a wasteful duplication of compensatory systems, in a legal order where the same result is obtained using the tort law. Nevertheless, it does not mean that creditor’s person or property will not be relevant with respect to contractual relationship. it is enough just to understand that this will only happen in a few situat

The African lion is in danger of rapid population decline and possible extinction in the near future. Two decades ago there was an abundance of African lions, roughly 100 000, on the continent. But at present there are less than 32 000, some even believe there to be as little as 15 000, left. This decline is mainly due to threats arising from habitat loss, retaliatory and traditional killing, the trophy hunting industry and trade related issues. Consequently, African lions are listed as 'vulnerable' on the International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List of Threatened Species. This list

Abstract:

An increasing number of software systems must safeguard their confidential data and code, referred to as critical program information (CPI). Such safeguarding is commonly accomplished by isolating CPI in a trusted execution environment (TEE), with the isolated CPI becoming a trusted computing base (TCB). TEE protection incurs heavy performance costs, as TEE-based functionality is expensive to both invoke and execute. Despite these costs, projects that use TEEs tend to have unnecessarily large TCBs. As based on our analysis, developers often put code and data into TEE for convenience rather tha

Abstract:

From an increasing awareness of the risks posed by climate change emerge the need to model potential impacts on coasts at a high spatial resolution, broad spatial scales, and time scales that correspond to the widely used IPCC sea-level rise scenarios. Little previous work has been carried out at this scale in the UK. This thesis investigates the potential of ‘reduced complexity’ models as a tool to represent mesoscale impacts of sea-level rise on UK estuarine environments. The starting point for this work is the Sea Level Affecting Marshes Model (SLAMM), which has been widely used in the USA.

Ce travail étudie des solutions intégrées pour la construction des habitacles qui protégeront les astronautes des rayons cosmiques galactiques (Galactic Cosmic Rays, GCR), des événements de particules solaires (Solar Particle Events, SPE), des émissions secondaires et des températures extrêmes en utilisant le régolithe comme principal matériau de protection sur la Lune. Il s'agit d'une approche multidisciplinaire de l'utilisation des régolithes : de la physique des particules aux sciences des matériaux, de la radiobiologie à la conception technique.Les interactions particules-matière entre le

Abstract:

Sans cesse croissante complexité et l'interdépendance des infrastructures critiques modernes, avec des environs de risque plus en plus complexes, posent des défis uniques pour leur exploitation sûre, fiable et efficace. L'objectif de la présente thèse est sur la modélisation, la simulation et l'optimisation des infrastructures critiques (par exemple, les réseaux de transmission de puissance) à l'égard de leur vulnérabilité et la résilience aux défaillances en cascade. Cette étude aborde le problème en modélisant infrastructures critiques à un niveau fondamental, en se concentrant sur la topolo

Abstract:

This thesis argues that Access and Benefit Sharing CABS) agreements, no matter how fair and equitable, ultimately help to destroy traditional knowledge rather than protect it. ABS agreements are promoted and implemented as one of the key mechanisms for the protection of traditional knowledge from illegitimate appropriation by pharmaceutical companies or other actors. However, because they dominantly treat traditional knowledge as intellectual property in need of protection from misappropriation, they have the effect of expanding capital into a previously non- capitalist domain. The thesis argu

Neste sentido, são escolhidos três exemplos de interpretação da questão: o tráfico como problema de crime organizado; o tráfico como problema moral; e o tráfico como problema de migração. Baseando-se em conceitos de Michel Foucault, o enfoque d
