A Guide to Urban Habitat Conservation Planning
other natural resources for aesthetic, recreational, and economic significance, so over the past several decades they have become increasingly concerned about the loss of wildlife habitat and greenspace. Urban and suburban development is one of the leading causes of this loss: A recent study indicated that every day in Kentucky more than 100 acres of rural land is being converted to urban devel...
متن کاملIntegrating Scientific Methods with Habitat Conservation Planning: Reserve Design for Northern Spotted Owls.
To meet the requirements of Congressional legislation mandating the production of a "scientifically credible" conservation strategy for the threatened Northern Spotted Owl (Strix occidentalis caurina), the Interagency Spotted Owl Scientific Committee employed scientific methods to design a habitat reserve system. Information on the current and historical distributions of the owl and its habitat...
متن کاملIntegrating economic costs into conservation planning.
Recent studies that incorporate the spatial distributions of biological benefits and economic costs in conservation planning have shown that limited budgets can achieve substantially larger biological gains than when planning ignores costs. Despite concern from donors about the effectiveness of conservation interventions, these increases in efficiency from incorporating costs into planning have...
متن کاملIntegrating planning and learning: the PRODIGY architecture
Planning is a complex reasoning task that is well suited for the study of improving performance and knowledge by learning, i.e. by accumulation and interpretation of planning experience. PRODIGY is an architecture that integrates planning with multiple learning mechanisms. Learning occurs at the planner’s decision points and integration in PRODIGY is achieved via mutually interpretable knowledg...
متن کاملIntegrating Planning and Reacting Architecture for Controlling
This paper presents a heterogeneous, asynchronous architecture for controlling autonomous mobile robots which is capable of controlling a robot performing multiple tasks in real time in noisy, unpredictable environments. The architecture produces behavior which is reliable, task-directed (and taskable), and reactive to contingencies. Experiments on real and simulated realworld robots are descri...
