Management indicator species based on a new method such as Analytical Network Process-Decision Making Trial and Evaluation (ANP-DEMATEL) is one of the most important stages in the successful Range management as choosing a su...
متن کاملSelecting indicator species to monitor ecological integrity: a review.
We review critical issues that must be considered when selecting indicator species for a monitoring program that aims to maintain or restore ecological integrity. First, we examine the pros and cons of different management approaches on which a conservation program can be based and conclude that ecosystem management is most appropriate. We then identify potential indicators of ecological integr...
متن کاملCan a Single Amphibian Species Be a Good Biodiversity Indicator?
Although amphibians have been widely promoted as indicators of biodiversity and environmental change, rigorous tests are lacking.

Although a link was established between the presence of great crested newts and aquatic plant dive...
متن کاملSelecting Indicator Portfolios for Marine Species and Food Webs: A Puget Sound Case Study
Ecosystem-based management (EBM) has emerged as a promising approach for maintaining the benefits humans want and need from the ocean, yet concrete approaches for implementing EBM remain scarce. A key challenge lies in the development of indicators that can provide useful information on ecosystem status and trends, and assess progress towards management goals. In this paper, we describe a gener...
