Population Momentum: Implications for Wildlife Management
Maintenance of sustainable wildlife populations is one of the primary purposes of wildlife management. Thus, it is important to monitor and manage population growth over time. Sensitivity analysis of the long-term (i.e., asymptotic) population growth rate to changes in the vital rates is commonly used in management to identify the vital rates that contribute most to population growth. Yet, dyna...
متن کاملForest Fragmentation in the Pacific Northwest and its Potential Effects on Wildlife
Fragmentation is the creation of a complex mosaic of spatial and successional habitats from formerly contiguous habitat. Loss of habitat and the less obvious phenomenon of habitatpatch isolation are aspects ‘of fragmentation that threaten the viability of wildlife populations, the components of biotic diversity. Fragmentation of forests on Federal lands in the Pacific Northwest is the product o...
متن کاملOptimal Management of a Multi-stand Forest/Wildlife System
Several studies have shown that when a single wildlife stock is influenced by several adjacent forest stands, through production of habitat and/or forage, the optimal harvest timing of those stands can be interdependent. This study adds a second possible dependency between trees and wildlife browsing by the wildlife species may damage valuable trees. The optimal joint management of trees and wi...
متن کاملForest Stand Structure and Development: Implications for Forest Management
A general premise of forest managers is that modern silviculture should be based, in large part, on natural disturbance patterns and species' adaptations to these disturbances. An understanding of forest stand dynamics is therefore a prerequisite to sound forest management. This paper provides a brief overview of forest stand development, stand structures, and disturbance regimes and discusses ...
متن کاملWildlife and wildlife management in Tanzania.
Tanzania, arguably mainland Africa's most important nation for conservation, is losing habitat and natural resources rapidly. Moving away from a charcoal energy base and developing sustainable finance mechanisms for natural forests are critical to slowing persistent deforestation. Addressing governance and capacity deficits, including law enforcement, technical skills, and funding, across parts...
