Biological Resource Mapping
نویسنده
چکیده
Maps are extremely useful for displaying information on the biological, physical, geographical, or cultural resources of an area. Additionally, maps can serve as the basis for designing and conducting resource inventory and monitoring programs. The fi rst part of this chapter focuses on the process of preparing a vegetation map, including a discussion of certain issues that need to be considered in the preparation of resource maps in general. The second part provides an overview of the use of geographic information systems (GIS) in displaying, manipulating, and analyzing spatial data. A GIS is a desktop computer-based system that integrates spatial information (maps and geo-referenced databases) with data manipulation, analysis, and display tools.

Cognitive mapping concept of resource management for the viability of local communities
The local community is a complex socio-economic system, and its ability to function for an indefinitely long period of time (viability) is not investigated sufficiently today. The purpose of the research was, using the cognitive mapping, propose to the local community management developing their own management strategies to ensure its viability. Considering the weakly structured subject area of...
متن کاملApplication of Geostatistical Methods to Estimate Groundwater Level Fluctuations
Keeping the water table at a favorable level is quite significant for a sustainable management of groundwater plans. Various management measures need to know the spatial and temporal behavior of groundwater. Therefore, the measurement of groundwater levels are generally carried out at spatially random locations in the field; whereas, most of the groundwater models requires these measurement at ...

متن کاملIsolation, purification and identification of three diatom species (Bacillariophyceae) from Gomishan wetland (N. Iran) using phylogeny and silica cell wall ultra-structure analysis
Diatoms of Gomishan wetland (Golestan province, N. Iran), one of the most significant habitats in the eastern shore of the Caspian Sea, has been isolated, purified and identified during 2013. Using serial dilution and streaking on F/2 medium, pure, monoalgal and axenic cultures of the isolates were prepared. The isolates were characterized and identified using micro-morphological studies on the...
