It is expected that more accounting conservation (environmental uncertainty) reduces manager optimism. Prior research, however, has struggled to establish this relation empirically. Moreover, some evidence points to the possibility that the manager optimism is lower for firms with more accounting conservation. In this paper, the author examine the link between accounting conservation, environme...

The major problem in the assessment of relationships between rainfall and runoff occurs when a study is carried out in ungauged watersheds in the absence of hydro-climatic data. This study aims to evaluate the applicability of Natural Resources Conservation Service-Curve Number (NRCS-CN) method together with GIS in estimating runoff depth in a mountainous watershed. The study was carried out in...

For close to 70 years, the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) has provided seasonal water supply outlooks for use by Western US water managers. These outlooks are a critical component in effective water management and are utilized by a broad spectrum of users for a variety of purposes, ranging from irrigated agriculture, flood control, municipal water supply, endangered species prote...

Micromagnetics supports emergent discrete structures, an emergent dynamics, and emergent conservation laws; here we discuss these features in view of their potential to be harnessed for computational purposes. More generally, we use mi-cromagnetics as a concrete setting for discussing how fine-grained, massively parallel computation might be achieved in a homogeneously fabricated and homogeneou...

according to the non-physical aspects of conservation in the world today and intangible effects were considered serious. conservation process, but help to understand the purpose and effect of not reading, but perception is a matter of epistemological roots in philosophy and  in modern philosophy the process of understanding a monument-art conservation in connection with the audience is importan...

the present study sustainable management of guilan saravan sylvan park was planned. the used method in the form of decision support model in three10-year period was studied for parks of various states and with considering the economic, ecological and social criteria during the years 2008 to 2038. by using hierarchical fuzzy analysis method, the reaching to an optimal level of economic, ecologic...

Laboratory populations and colonies of animals are established and maintained for a variety of purposes with biomedical, reproductive, behavioral, and genetical research being among the most common uses. Animal populations are also established and maintained for conservation purposes, as is the case with endangered species captive breeding programs in zoological parks and similar institutions. ...

Nature reserves are often designated ad hoc. Despite increasing conservation efforts, loss of biodiversity is still accelerating. Considering land scarcity and demand for alternative uses, efficiency in conservation strongly correlates with efficiency in land allocation. Systematic conservation planning can effectively prioritize conservation activities. Previous studies minimize opportunity co...
