| 2006 | | Geb (Lam Pp), F:16,5x24,5 cm, 410 S., 145 farbige Illustrationen (Farbfotos, Grafiken, Karten). | WG: Buch | | "Monitoring Nature Conservation in Cultural Habitats" presents monitoring as an integral component of responsible conservation management and as a catalyst for decision making. The early sections of the book cover key areas in the development of a monitoring project, including: The roles of survey and surveillance; Incorporating knowledge from existing research; Identifying the conservation priority on sites; Minimising observer error; Identifying site-specific condition indicators for habitats; Collecting monitoring data. The later sections of the book comprise a series of case studies covering a wide range of habitats and species. These case studies focus mostly, though not exclusively, on sites that form part of the Natura 2000 series in Europe. | [E] | |
