New Zealand's threatened bryophytes: Conservation efforts

Environmental and anthropogenic drivers of connectivity patterns: A basis for prioritizing conservation efforts for threatened populations

Ecosystem fragmentation and habitat loss have been the focus of landscape management due to restrictions on contemporary connectivity and dispersal of populations. Here, we used an individual approach to determine the drivers of genetic differentiation in caribou of the Canadian Rockies. We modelled the effects of isolation by distance, landscape resistance and predation risk and evaluated the ...

Conservation: Threatened by Luxury

When animals are traded in lucrative international luxury markets, individuals really do matter to conservation. Identifying the intrinsic and extrinsic factors that make some species especially vulnerable to this kind of threat helps set guidelines for more effective conservation.

The Conservation Requirements of New Zealand's Nationally Threatened Vascular Plants

Spatial Identification of Statewide Areas for Conservation Focus in New Mexico: Implications for State Conservation Efforts

Landscape scale conservation planning efforts have been in place for the past several decades to maintain biodiversity. Objectives of past efforts have been to identify areas to create reserves based on species diversity, land ownership, and landscape context. Risk analysis has not often been included in these spatial analyses. Datasets such as the Southwest Regional Gap Analysis (SWReGAP) are ...

Bryophytes on Boulders Diversity, habitat preferences and conservation aspects

Weibull, H. 2000. Bryophytes on boulders diversity, habitat preferences and conservation aspects. Doctor’s dissertation. ISSN 1401-6230, ISBN 91-576-5893-5 The influence of different overstorey tree species on the floristic composition of bryophytes growing on boulders was studied in two deciduous forests. Covering tree species and amount of litter were the factors explaining most of the variat...
