Ecosystems Biodiversity
Ecosystems can be considered as dynamic and interactive clusters made up of plants, animals and micro-organism communities. Inevitably, mankind is an integral part of each ecosystem and as such enjoys all its provided benefits. Driven by the increasing necessity to preserve the ecosystem productivity, several ecological studies have been conducted in the last few years, highlighting the current state in which our planet is, and focusing on future perspectives. This book contains comprehensive overviews and original studies focused on hazard analysis and evaluation of ecological variables affecting species diversity, richness and distribution, in order to identify the best management strategies to face and solve the conservation problems.
Identification Guide of Freshwater Macroinvertebrates of Spain
As a result of the European Commission’s concern for the status of continental waters, and as a clear reflection of the notion of water as heritage to be conserved, in the year 2000 the Water Framework Directive (2000/60/CE) was enacted, its goal being to establish a framework to protect water and the different aquatic ecosystems by requiring the Member States to achieve a good ecological status in all their waters by 2015. Like all ecosystems, freshwater ecosystems undergo physical, chemical and energy-related changes, both of natural and anthropogenic origin. These disturbances affect the organisms living in them and those who utilize their resources. Therefore, evaluating these changes ...
Directorio de revistas españolas de ciencia y tecnología
Este Directorio recoge las revistas españolas de Ciencia y Tecnología que forman parte del fondo documental de la base de datos ICYT (Índice Español de Ciencia y Tecnología) del CSIC. Constituye, por tanto, una recopilación selectiva de las revistas científicas españolas de dichas áreas, caracterizadas por contener trabajos originales en un mayor o menor porcentaje. No figuran, por consiguiente, las publicaciones periódicas de los citados campos científicos que son de carácter exclusivamente comercial o de divulgación. En total recoge 635 títulos, de los que 354 corresponden a revistas en curso de publicación y 281 a revistas que han dejado de publicarse o que han cambiado de título. Como valor añadido, esta cuarta edición presenta información adicional, que consiste en la descripción de las bases de datos nacionales y extranjeras en las que se encuentran indizadas las revistas, información que se ha obtenido a través de la base de datos "Ulrich's International Periodicals Directory."
Wetlands: Market and Intervention Failures
Wetlands are vital and valuable resources, both as rich and unique wildlife habitats, and for the functions they fulfil - providing flood and sediment control and coastal protection, as carbon sinks and pollution buffers, for their role in storing and recycling nutrients, as well as for their recreational value. Too often, however, their true value has been overlooked or underestimated and they have been mismanaged or destroyed as a result. This volume, commissioned by the OECD presents four case studies of the management policies of wetland environments in the UK, USA, France and Spain. They show how both markets and direct intervention have resulted in failure, severely reducing the amount of wetland and jeopardizing the remainder ,and they set out measures that will mitigate damage in the future .Turner and Jones have produced an essential work in the growing area of environmental economics. Originally published in 1991
Management and Ecology of Freshwater Plants
There is a growing need for appropriate management of aquatic plants in rivers and canals, lakes and reservoirs, and drainage channels and urban waterways. This management must be based on a sound knowledge of the ecology of freshwater plants, their distribution and the different forms of control available including chemical, physical, biological and biomanipulation. This series of papers from over 20 different countries was generated from the highly successful European Weed Research Society symposia on aquatic plant management, this being the ninth. The contributions provide a valuable insight into the complexities involved in managing aquatic systems, discuss state-of-the-art control techn...
Mujer y agua
"Mujer y agua: una relación natural" es una obra que sitúa a la mujer en diversos roles en los que se exaltan sus conocimientos y capacidades como gestoras, científicas e incluso protectoras en defensa del agua, del ambiente y de las comunidades presentes en el territorio. El texto se divide en tres partes: 1) mujer y acción por el agua, 2) mujer y ciencia y 3) ecofeminismo; en las que se destaca el papel de la mujer como articuladora de procesos y puente de unión entre la ciencia, la academia y la sociedad. Es una invitación colectiva para proveer alternativas integrales a la resolución de problemáticas y conflictos ambientales, donde el agua suele ser un foco de interés. El libro extiende una invitación a asumir retos y emprender acciones de adaptación, en tiempos de cambio.
