RC 1. The Eq.1, which underlies the considerations, is wrong and has been disproven in several publications. Already Slinn and Slinn (1980) derived a more appropriate equation for dry deposition velocity with an artificial virtual resistance, which, unlike the Eq.1, satisfies the mass conservation requirement between the surface and reference height. However, it did not resolve the principal pr...

natural sites with spiritual values are parts of land or sea that play key role in conserving biodiversity and cultural identity. the aim of this study is prioritizing protected zones with spiritual values. in the first step for this survey, based on literature review and according to multi criteria assessment, convenient conservation criteria were compiled, then for each of criterion, indices ...

By summarising ecological publications over the last 30 years, this paper provides an assessment of the amount and focus of New Zealand ecological research with respect to land tenure. While the number of published articles that deal with private land has increased over the last 30 years, the majority of New Zealand ecological research publications (65%) still focuses on public conservation lan...

During the 1800s, most native species of invertebrates in Pennsylvania were named, but basic information on the biology of only a few species was published. The fauna of adjacent states (especially N...

Urban bee ecology is an emerging field that holds promise for advancing knowledge of bee community dynamics and promoting bee conservation. Published studies of bee communities in urban and suburban habitats are fewer than those documenting bees in agricultural and wildland settings. As land lost to urbanization is predicted to increase in coming years the necessity of studying urban bee popula...

The study examined agrobiodiversity conservation techniques adopted by rural farmers in Kware Local Government Area, Nigeria. Multistage sampling procedure was used to arrive at 120 farmers from three selected villages. Forty (40) interview schedule were administered in each of the sampled villages.
