Challenges and Priorities in Shark and Ray Conservation

Challenges and Priorities in Shark and Ray Conservation.

Sharks, rays, and chimaeras (Class Chondrichthyes; herein 'sharks') are the earliest extant jawed vertebrates and exhibit some of the greatest functional diversity of all vertebrates. Ecologically, they influence energy transfer vertically through trophic levels and sometimes trophic cascades via direct consumption and predation risk. Through movements and migrations, they connect horizontally ...

Historic Urban Environment Conservation Challenges and Priorities for Action

Conservation planning and priorities

Maybe the first law of conservation science should be that human population—which of course drives both threats to biodiversity and its conservation—is distributed unevenly around the world (Cincotta et al. 2000). This parallels a better-known first law of biodiversity science, that biodiversity itself is also distributed unevenly (Gaston 2000; Chapter 2). Were it not for these two patterns, co...

Biological effects, conservation potential, and research priorities of shark diving tourism

Shark diving tourism is a burgeoning, global industry. The growing perception that sharks can be worth more alive for tourism than dead in a fish market has become one of the leading contemporary arguments for shark conservation. However, there still exists concern that many aspects of shark-related tourism (e.g., provisioning) may alter natural behaviors and foraging areas, as well as pose a t...

manipulation in dubbing and subtitling

پژوهش حاضر در چارچوب مکتب دستکاری قرار گرفت و با استفاده از تقسیم بندی دوکات (2007) از شیوه های دستکاری، به دنبال یافتن پاسخ برای پرسش های زیر بود: 1-رایج ترین شیوه دستکاری در دوبله فیلم ها کدام است؟ 2-رایج ترین شیوه دستکاری در زیرنویس فیلم ها کدام است؟ 3-دستکاری در دوبله فیلم ها رایج تر است یا در زیرنویس آن ها؟ این پژوهش از نوع تحقیقات توصیفی- مقایسه ای و پیکره ای می باشد. پیکره تحقیق شا...
