Streszczenie:

Pricing and market exchange, we are now often told, are the only routes through which biological diversity can be saved. The objective of this dissertation is to examine the material-semiotic processes and networks by which a kind of ‘economized’, and even at times, ‘entrepreneurial nature’ comes to be. I ask: how did biodiversity become entangled in economic rationalities and market calculations? What are the circuits of knowledge and power producing biodiversity in this way? What calculative devices, methodologies and policies are created, or envisioned as necessary to make biodiversity cons

Biodiversity offsetting is a mechanism for providing physical compensation to redress losses to species and habitats caused by development projects. As offsetting becomes more widespread, so has the evolution and development of frameworks, tools and methodological approaches for assessing biodiversity and implementing offsets. In this context and with a specific focus on assessment methodology this research takes a scientific and pragmatic approach to bridge the gap between empirical approaches to biodiversity assessment and the practical, often subjective, methods used by practitioners.

The loss of biodiversity is accepted as a vital area of research and habitat destruction due to human activity is a major cause of such biodiversity loss. Agriculture has resulted in widespread modification of the natural landscape. In these highly modified landscapes, however, remnants of semi natural habitat remain, potentially providing key refugia for biodiversity. Riparian areas are potentially relatively species rich zones, due to the ecotone of habitats ranging from fully terrestrial to aquatic.

Streszczenie:

Biodiversity, arising at multiple levels, is known as a multi-dimensional and complex concept, but is also known to have a rather loose definition. Imprecise definitions are not very suitable for objective quantification or the rigour of economic valuation. Therefore, to construct a more substantial definition of value for biodiversity, a theoretical argument aiming to link biodiversity and functional (meaningful) information needs to be developed. A working hypothesis is that biodiversity is a measure of the total difference within a biological system, which can be summarised in terms of the

Expansion has recently shifted northwards into mainland Southeast Asia (the Indo-Burma biodiversity hotspot) due to the development of hardier rubber varieties that can survive longer dry seasons and cooler climates.

This thesis focuses on statistical methods for estimating the number of species which is a natural index for measuring biodiversity. Both parametric and nonparametric approaches are investigated for this problem. Species abundance models including homogeneous and heterogeneous model are explored for species richness estimation. Two new improvements to the Chao estimator are developed using the Good-Turing coverage formula. Although the homogeneous abundance model is the simplest model, the species are collected with different probability in practice. This leads to overdispersed data, zero infl

The significant decline in flower-visiting invertebrate populations across Europe has been largely attributed to habitat loss and agricultural intensification. To facilitate and enhance population growth, reversal of biodiversity loss within the local landscapes should be addressed. This study identifies and assesses habitat features associated with flower-visiting invertebrates with the aim to develop management targets to enhance biodiversity. The abundance and diversity of flower-visiting invertebrates were compared between six habitat areas within the grounds of the Alcan Aluminium smelter

Microorganisms are critical to the functioning of terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems and may also play a role in the functioning of the atmosphere. However, little is known about the diversity and function of microorganisms in the atmosphere. To investigate the forces driving the assembly of bacterial microbial communities in the atmosphere, I measured temporal variation in bacterial diversity and composition over diurnal and inter-day time scales. Results suggest that bacterial communities in the atmosphere markedly vary over diurnal time scales and are likely structured by inputs from both l

Streszczenie:

The establishment of protected areas (PAs) has been the key national strategy in biodiversity conservation, through preserving the unique wildlife and ecosystems in Indonesia. As well as their status as sites rich in biodiversity, PAs are also important for socio-economic interactions. Hence the management of PAs has been fraught with technical, social and economic problems. To ensure greater local participation and support in tropical forest conservation initiatives, it is vital to understand how local stakeholders perceive them. This research was undertaken in Gorontalo Province by examining
