Ecological assessment of Mel e Gonzeh mangrove forest by AZTI's Marine Biotic Index
AMBI is an ecological marine ecosystem indicator, which provides a more intelligent assessment of ecosystems of sensitivity and resilience, and ecological role, compared to famous diversity and dominance. This study assesses ecosystem health status from the AMBI's perspective by examining the distribution and biodiversity of macrobenthoses from mangrove of Mel-e-Gonzeh in the Bushehr province. ...
متن کاملOpportunities for Increasing Resilience and Sustainability of Urban Social–Ecological Systems: Insights from the URBES and the Cities and Biodiversity Outlook Projects
Urban futures that are more resilient and sustainable require an integrated social-ecological system approach to urban policymaking, planning, management, and governance. In this article, we introduce the Urban Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (URBES) and the Cities and Biodiversity Outlook (CBO) Projects as new social-ecological contributions to research and practice on emerging urban resil...
متن کاملResilience in the Studies of Biodiversity-Ecosystem Functioning.
The concept of ‘resilience’, which helps describe system responses to change, is increasingly attracting attention [1–3]. Biodiversity is often thought to be a key feature underpinning the resilience of ecosystems [4–7]. Importantly, one of the primary focuses of biodiversity studies has been to elucidate the mechanisms by which biodiversity stabilizes ecosystem functions under environmental ch...
متن کاملAssessment and Spatial Planning of Landscape Ecological Connectivity for Biodiversity Management (Case Study: Qazvin Province)
Habitat and ecosystem fragmentation and, consequently, the loss of landscape connectivity are major causes of biodiversity destruction, leading to disruption of material, energy, and information flow at the landscape scale. Given the importance of this issue, the current study aimed to evaluate the ecological connectivity and spatial planning of Qazvin Province, in order to re-establish and pro...
متن کاملEcosystem Consequences of Biodiversity Loss: the Evolution of a Paradigm
The ecosystem consequences of dramatic declines or changes in biodiversity have spurred considerable research and tremendous debate that has rekindled most of the major conflicts in ecology, creating a sense of déjà vu. These conflicts include whether ecosystem or community ecology provides better insights into the workings of nature, the relative importance of biotic vs. abiotic factors in gov...
