The national park with Chinese characteristics is the highest level of protection of a kind of natural protection, its establishment marks the park will implement the strictest ecological protection means. It is of great value to construct the utilization system of national park resources under the new natural protected area system in the new era to avoid the misunderstanding of “ecological protection only” and explore how to carry out the sustainable utilization of resources in the reform of national park system and mechanism. According to the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and Delphi method, the evaluation framework, indicators, reference standards and weights of resource utilization under the national park system were determined in combination with the requirements of constructing the protected natural area system and the total value of resource ecosystem services (including harvest value, existence value and future value). Based on the application research of Bawangling zone of Hainan Tropical Rainforest National Park, the optimal resource utilization system in the future was proposed, and two optimization strategies of ecological adjustment of resource utilization system and construction of suitable resource utilization system were put forward.

The Coast Area is an area that has a physical condition where erosion occurs at other times, sedimentation occurs. Both of these conditions can be a problem in coastal areas. This is very closely related to land use in coastal areas. Another problem is that in protecting the beach by the government it is very expensive and cannot be carried out simultaneously throughout the coastal areas, so that people have to wait in uncertain times.In North Sulawesi coastal areas are widely used as settlements, tourist areas and other public facilities. The community has its own ability both in terms of the availability of natural resources and labour, so that it can secure the coast to reduce the risk of damage in its coastal areas.The method of building of non-structural coastal protection can be carried out by people whose construction types can be combined according to the conditions and availability of natural resources in the area.

The aim of this paper is (i) to review the method of valorization of natural resources as applied in the environmental impact assessment, and (ii) to develop recommendations on how valorization expertise should be prepared in order to be comprehensive and transparent. Valorization is the proper time to carry out identi>cation of the possible negative environmental impacts and damages of a planned project. It is recommended to perform valorization due to the state (numbers) and functions (quality) of natural resources. This approach is related to the concept of environmental damage, which is defined as a measurable adverse change in a natural resource or measurable impairment of a natural resource service (which means the functions performed by a natural resource for the benefit of another natural resource or the public). Valorization of natural resources should include an assessment of potential environmental damage, including an impact on the local biodiversity, the ecological connectivity, the N2000 network, and the legally protected areas. The valorization of natural resources should be performed at the following thematic levels focusing on the role of the area under consideration due to: (1) the implementation of the objectives of protection of Nature 2000 network and its overall coherence, (2) the implementation of the objectives of protection of legally protected areas other than N2000, (3) the maintenance of the ecological connectivity in a context other than the coherence of Nature 2000 network, (4) the maintenance of species and natural habitats with favorable conservation status, (5) the conservation of species and natural habitat types that are not legally protected.

This study aims to analyze the implementation of the conservation of Biological Natural Resources and their ecosystems in Indonesia and what are the inhibiting and supporting factors in the implementation of Conservation of Biological Natural Resources and their ecosystems in Indonesia. Biological natural resources are one of the most important elements in an ecosystem. The elements of living natural resources and their ecosystems are interdependent with each other, so their use also affects each other causing damage and the extinction of one of them will result in the disruption of the ecosystem. Therefore, it is necessary to have conservation as the management of living natural resources that is carried out regularly. The research uses a normative juridical approach (socio-legal research) as the basis for describing ideas. The result of this research is that efforts to use it sustainably in conservation are often forgotten. In addition, conservation within the framework of decentralization has led to disharmony in relations between the central government, provincial governments, and district/city governments. As a result, the welfare of the community around the area or within the conservation area is decreasing. Efforts that should be made in the context of overcoming law enforcement on the conservation of living natural resources and their ecosystems in Indonesia cannot be carried out only with penal (criminal) policies but must be carried out through integral efforts between penal and non-penal policies (without criminal). Crimes or criminal acts occur because of social conditions that are conducive factors for the occurrence of crime, therefore non-penal measures that can be taken are eliminating conducive factors that cause criminal acts in the field of conservation of living natural resources and their ecosystems.

Abstract The process of modernization of spatial planning principles focused on the conservation of resources in solving problems related to the protection of natural areas is impossible without the effective use of natural framework of the area under study through its zoning. Natural framework is formed on the basis of hydrographic system taking into account the conditions of geomorphology and topography of the territory in the form of an integral structure of green spaces. The growing degree of urbanization of urban settlements, increase in industrial and residential areas, and growing level of motorization play a major role in changing the ecology of the city, destruction of the existing natural framework and increasing recreational load on the urban landscape.

This paper presents the existing situation at national and world level considering the available water resources, their vulnerability especially in the mountains areas, the impact of climate changes, the possible conflicts regarding the intensification of water shortage in some regions of the world. I also present a case study on forests in Romania. Beginning with the general data mentioned above, we point out the specific peculiarities of the mountain area hydrology for identifying some aspects which are specific to the mountain water relationship. The analysis is necessary as no specifications regarding the mountain hilly or plain areas are done in the activity regarding waters management. Waters are managed unitary on river basins considering some general principles, unanimously recognized, well reflected into the national and international regulations. As a first stage, traditional economic activities are identified in the relationship of the mountain areas inhabitants with water but also some present approaches. The way the mountain areas inhabitants knew how to live together and capitalize water resources represents a model and impulse for coming back to such sustainable solutions but capitalizing the advantages of modern technologies. Each of these activities referring to waters which take place in the mountains area can represent ways for the research activity and future thorough studies from the technical, economic, social, cultural-traditional point of view and also for environment protection. A main preoccupation might have connection with the evolution of agricultural activities in the mountains area considering the climate changes and a possible “migration” towards higher areas of some agricultural practices specific to lower areas. The paper also shows a small example of the regaining by the locals of a community of an important resource for their lives in the hands of corporations: the forests defaced by HOLZINDUSTRIE SCHWEIGHOFER and stop flooding villages.

Texto completoResumen
To better understand the value of those who engage in environmental stewardship of natural areas, we studied volunteer steward's motivation to participate, their sustainable behaviors and attitudes toward stewardship-related constructs. Specifically, we designed and conducted a survey of volunteers who work as stewards in urban natural areas in Portland, Oregon. We hypothesize that as volunteer frequency increases: participants will be more motivated to participate for environmental reasons, volunteers will be more likely to feel a strong connection to the stewardship site, participants will be more likely to engage in public pro-environmental behaviors, and their level of environmental literacy will increase. Participants were sampled using a face-to-face survey methodology over the course of late winter and spring of 2012 during 18 different Portland Parks and Recreation sponsored stewardship events. We examined the motivations, attitudes and behaviors of the volunteers, and devised appropriate management implications for those organizing volunteer efforts. We equated a three-tiered typology of environmental literacy, based upon the frequency of volunteer participation, and analyzed our survey data using a principal component analysis, generalized linear models, and a qualitative coding analysis. The most frequent participants showed a higher likelihood of participation in public environmental behaviors, whereas participants at all frequency levels were also likely to participate in private environmental behaviors, such as removing invasive plants in one's yard. Volunteers across all frequencies of participation were motivated to engage in stewardship events by a desire to help the environment. By understanding volunteers' motivations and linked behaviors, park managers may gain insights about the recruitment, retention, and messaging of volunteers upon whom they may depend to achieve restoration goals. We recommend considering volunteers' motivations and benefits derived from participation in messaging to recruit and retain volunteers. Additionally, park managers should take advantage of educational opportunities linked to stewardship events, such as training programs and chances for volunteer mentorship.

Texto completoResumen
Les flux dissipatifs de ressources minérales sont au cœur de l'évaluation de l'impact environnemental, car ils sont nocifs pour l'environnement et représentent un gaspillage de ressources non renouvelables. L'analyse du cycle de vie (ACV) est un outil d'évaluation environnementale reconnu encadré par les normes ISO 14040/44, visant généralement à prévenir les impacts sur trois aires de protection: la santé des écosystèmes, la santé humaine, et les ressources naturelles. Traditionnellement, l'impact de l’extraction sur l’épuisement des ressources minérales a été évalué pour mesurer l’impact sur l’aire de protection ressources naturelles. Cependant, les tendances récentes des discussions au sein de la communauté ACV suggèrent que la dissipation des minéraux peut être plus pertinente à évaluer, car elle représente la perte réelle de matériaux qui ne sont plus accessibles pour une utilisation future, alors que l'épuisement des stocks géologiques peut en fait être considéré souhaitable tant et aussi longtemps que les ressources minérales restent accessibles pour une réutilisation future.Cette thèse a pour objectif d'améliorer la prise en compte des flux dissipatifs de ressources minérales dans le cadre de l'ACV, en particulier sur l’aire de protection des ressources naturelles. D'une manière générale, deux thèmes sous-jacents sont inclus dans l'objectif: améliorer la compréhension des impacts de l'utilisation des ressources minérales sur l’aire de protection ressources naturelles, et développer une méthode d’évaluation des impacts environnementaux permettant de quantifier ces impacts en relation avec la dissipation des ressources minérales.Nous étudions d'abord les impacts reliant les interventions humaines à l’aire de protection ressources naturelles. Cette étude permet d’établir les liens entre les flux de ressources minérales et l’aire de protection, afin de fournir un cadre cohérent pour évaluer les impacts de l'utilisation des ressources minérales sur celle-ci en utilisant plusieurs méthodes d’évaluation des impacts à la fois. Ensuite, nous explorons les concepts et la terminologie entourant la dissipation et proposons un cadre conceptuel pour aborder la dissipation des ressources minérales en utilisant des données d’analyse de flux de matière dynamiques. Deux options sont identifiées : retravailler les inventaires de cycle de vie actuels pour intégrer les flux dissipatifs et développer une méthode d'évaluation de l'impact du cycle de vie appropriée, ou proposer une méthode d’évaluation des impacts intégrant la dissipation dans le calcul de ses facteurs de caractérisation et qui peut être appliquée directement aux flux d'extraction dans les données d’inventaires actuelles. La deuxième option est retenue pour la suite de la thèse.Des données sont collectées pour 61 éléments métalliques et des résultats d’analyse de flux de matière dynamique sont obtenus pour ces derniers. Nous proposons alors deux méthodes pour mesurer l’impact de la dissipation sur les ressources minérales : le taux de dissipation moyen (ADR, pour « average dissipation rate ») et le temps de service potentiel perdu (LPST, pour « lost potential service time »). A partir des résultats d’analyse de flux de matière dynamique, des facteurs de caractérisation midpoint sont calculés pour 61 métaux. En outre, les facteurs de caractérisation endpoint sont proposés à l'aide d'un indice basé sur les prix. Enfin, les facteurs de caractérisation sont appliqués à un large éventail d'ensembles de données d'inventaires de cycle de vie afin d'observer les tendances à attendre dans les études ACV couvrant la dissipation des ressources minérales en utilisant les méthodes développées. Ces résultats sont comparés à ceux d'autres méthodes fréquemment utilisées pour évaluer les impacts de l’utilisation de ressources minéralesDissipative flows of mineral resources are central to environmental impact assessment, since they are harmful to the environment and embody a wasteful use of non-renewable resources. Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is a recognized environmental assessment tool framed by the ISO 14040/44 norms, typically aiming to prevent damage on three areas of protection (AoP): ecosystem health, human health, and natural resources.Traditionally, the depletion of mineral resources has been assessed to quantify impacts on the AoP natural resources. However, recent trends in discussion within the LCA community suggest that dissipation of minerals may be more relevant to assess, since they represent the real loss of materials that are no longer accessible for future use, whereas the depletion of geological stocks may actually be considered to be desirable for as long as mineral resources remain accessible for further human use.This thesis has the objective to improve the consideration of dissipative flows of mineral resources in the LCA framework, focusing on the AoP natural resources. Broadly speaking, two topics are encompassed within the objective: improving the understanding of the impacts of mineral resource use on the AoP natural resources, and developing a life cycle impact assessment (LCIA) method allowing to quantify these impacts in relation to the dissipation of mineral resources.We first investigate the impact pathways relating human interventions to the AoP natural resources. The relation between resource flows and the AoP natural resources is studied in order to provide a coherent framework to assess the impacts of mineral resource use on the AoP using multiple LCIA methods at once. Then, we explore concepts and terminology surrounding dissipation and propose a conceptual framework to address the dissipation of mineral resources based on dynamic material flow analysis (MFA) data. Two options are identified: reworking current life cycle inventories to integrate dissipative flows and develop a life cycle impact assessment (LCIA) method accordingly, or propose a LCIA method that integrates dissipation in the calculation of its characterization factors that can be applied to extraction flows in the current inventories. The second option is further developed in this thesis.In order to develop LCIA methods, data is collected for 61 metallic elements and dynamic material flow analysis results are computed for them. We then propose two methods to measure the impact of dissipation on mineral resources: the average dissipation rate (ADR) and the potential service time lost (LPST). Based on the dynamic material flow analysis results, midpoint characterization factors are calculated for 61 metals. In addition, endpoint characterization factors are computed using a price-based index. Finally, the characterization factors are applied to a wide range of life cycle inventory datasets in order to observe the trends to be expected in LCA studies covering the dissipation of mineral resources using the developed methods. These results are compared to those of other frequently used LCIA methods to address the impacts of mineral resource use

Compreender o meio ambiente como um sistema frágil e limitado é uma necessidade atual e somente por meio de estratégias e ferramentas voltadas para a sustentabilidade socioambiental dos recortes locais pode-se pensar no equilíbrio de áreas de proteção ambiental, como é o caso da APA da Chapada do Araripe. Neste recorte espacial, a atividade turística encontra-se em forte expansão e é relevante as preocupações em busca de tornar a atividade compatível com a preservação e a conservação desse ambiente destino. Parte integrante dos equipamentos turístico, os meios de hospedagens são reconhecidos na literatura consultada como uma atividade geradora de significativos impactos ao meio ambiente e, quando instalados em áreas de ecossistemas frágeis, demandam intervenções que possam orientar e disciplinar o uso desse espaço. Fiel ao principio que a sustentabilidade é sempre situada, esta tese teve como objetivo geral identificar os fatores críticos para a promoção de negócios hoteleiros sustentáveis na APA Chapada do Araripe, e como objetivos específicos historiar a evolução da intervenção humana na área da APA Chapada do Araripe, identificar os principais impactos gerados pelas atividades econômicas atuais e rastrear os indicadores mais significativos para a construção de uma hotelaria sustentável para esta unidade de conservação e por fim, propor uma norma situada que possa nortear os meios de hospedagens na busca de uma gestão sustentável para a atividade. Baseados em métodos, como estudo de campo e estudo de caso, e em técnicas de entrevistas que envolveram o julgamento de especialistas, esta pesquisa chegou a conclusão de que modelos gerais não teriam, neste momento a adesão dos pequenos e médios hotéis localizados na Área de Proteção Ambiental da Chapada do Araripe, atribuindo esta constatação ao número expressivo de variáveis envolvidas, a ausência das singularidades regionais e principalmente pelo alto custo da certificação. Em resposta á hipótese levantada na tese, que apontou para a necessidade do desenvolvimento de um modelo de certificação centrado nas especificidades locais, foi elaborada uma proposta de certificação para a hotelaria regional, delineada para suprir as necessidades especificas do recorte local, composta pelas variáveis identificadas como mais significativas para a sustentabilidade da APA Chapada do Araripe. Após a construção teórica do modelo, a proposta foi apresentada a um grupo de especialistas, envolvendo empresários do setor hoteleiro, gestores de órgãos ambientais, ambientalistas e pesquisadores da área em análise, que avaliaram, sugeriram ajustes e por fim validaram o modelo.
Understanding the environment as a fragile and limited system is a current need. Only through strategies and tools geared to the socio-environmental sustainability of local cuts may one think of the balance of environmental protection areas such as the APA (place for forest protection) in the Chapada of Araripe. In this spatial cut, tourism activity is in strong expansion and concerns are relevant in seeking to make the activity compatible with the preservation and conservation of these destination environments. An integral part of tourism equipment, lodging facilities are recognized in the literature as an activity that generates significant impacts to the environment and when installed in areas of fragile ecosystems require interventions that can guide and discipline the use of this space. Faithful to the principle that sustainability is always located, this thesis had, as general objective, to identify the critical factors for the promotion of sustainable hotel business in the APA in the Chapada do Araripe, and as specific goals to record the evolution of human intervention in the APA area. Identify the main impacts generated by the current economic activities and trace the most significant indicators for the construction of a sustainable hotel for this conservation unit and, finally, propose a situated norm that can guide the means of lodging in the search of sustainable management for the activity. Based on methods such as field study and case study and interviews techniques that involved the judgment of specialists, this research concluded that general models would not have at present the adhesion of small and medium hotels located in the area of environmental protection of the Chapada do Araripe. Attributing this finding to the expressive number of variables involved the absence of regional singularities and mainly due to the high cost of certification. In response to the hypothesis raised in the thesis was developed a certification model for regional hospitality centered on local specificities and composed of the variables identified as most significant for the sustainability of APA. After the theoretical construction of the model, the proposal presented to a group of experts who evaluated, suggested adjustments and finally validated the model

Resumo: Esta tese versa sobre o papel de pessoas-chave e inovações institucionais na governança, com efeitos na capacidade de governar (governabilidade) áreas marinhas protegidas. Apresentamos um estudo de caso empírico sobre o litoral centro-sul do Estado de Santa Catarina (Brasil) onde indicações preliminares (2007) apontavam que a governabilidade sobre o território se destacava nacionalmente, em parte pelo protagonismo de pessoas-chave em um sistema governante com jurisdição regional denominado Área de Proteção Ambiental da Baleia Franca (APA-BF; criada em 2000 abrangendo 156.000 hectares). Partimos assim da hipótese de que a agência de pessoas-chave em interações governantes (sensu Jan Kooiman) e contextos comunicativos (sensu Gregory Bateson) ligados à APA-BF aumentaram a governabilidade no território centro-sul do estado de Santa Catarina na última década. A pesquisa incluiu dados secundários e primários (entrevistas semi-estruturadas e observação participante). Análises foram feitas sobre a governabilidade estrutural e funcional geral e sobre questões específicas de governança com foco nas questões pesqueiras emergentes no Conselho Gestor da APA-BF (CONAPA-BF). A trajetória da APA-BF demonstrou um caso excepcional de experimentação institucional formal face às condições sociopolíticas operantes no Estado Brasileiro (que criam "problemas perversos", sensu Rittel e Weber, 1979). Observamos que os padrões de inovação são explicados a partir de mudanças na governabilidade em sete fases na trajetória do sistema governante da APA-BF. A identidade transgressiva do CONAPA-BF diferencia-se pela autoafirmação da busca pelo novo, pelo aprendizado e colaboração social gradativamente ampliada em um território em acelerada transformação socioambiental. Descrevemos o aumento gradativo de governabilidade que se iniciou desde o passo-zero (sensu Chuenpagdee et al., 2013) de criação da APA-BF, culminando em 2012 com a abertura de uma janela de oportunidade para inovação estrutural na governança costeira-marinha em nível nacional, i.e. com a designação oficial do processo de elaboração de um Plano de Manejo `Estratégico¿ para a APA-BF como um projeto-piloto para o Estado Brasileiro. Observamos as coerências e desafios surgidos no discurso de inovação e o relevante protagonismo desempenhado pelas pessoas-chave em cada uma das sete fases e em períodos críticos de estruturação e reorganização do sistema governante. As pessoas-chave foram importantes para o tamponamento de distúrbios (sensu Holling 2001) no sistema governante, bem como são responsáveis pela incidência e atração de novos enfoques de ação tendo em vista a colaboração e aprendizado interativo. Tais pessoas-chave tiveram papel fundamental desde a re-estruturação do sistema governante até a abertura de oportunidades para a inovação institucional e a navegação de períodos transformativos neste sistema. Seus atributos pessoais afetaram a capacidade de governanca do sistema, principalmente na melhor formulação da imagem dos problemas a serem enfrentados, contribuindo com as capacidades do sistema governante (governabilidade funcional) e na condutibilidade geral das interações governantes. Oferecemos algumas sugestões gerais para o aumento da governabilidade na APA-BF, incluindo: (i) melhor integração junto as redes sociais virtuais ligadas ao território; (ii) promoção de estruturas interinstitucionais sensíveis à diversidade política no território; (iii) melhor aproveitamento do potencial das artes e atividades lúdicas em interações formais e informais; (iv) emprego de imagens alternativas à da Baleia (como ícone) para a comunicação social relacionada ao sistema governante APA e; (v) reinvidicação de maior amparo do Estado Brasileiro para os processos de experimentação e inovação institucional. Algumas destas sugestões podem ser relevantes também para aumentar a governabilidade de outras áreas marinhas protegidas no Brasil. Por fim, mesmo diante de tantos desafios, concluimos que muitas pessoas-chave e outros atores já compartilham das imagens alternativas de governança necessárias para navegar a transformação rumo a um regime de maior governabilidade. Ao enfrentarem desafios de várias ordens, os atores poderão não apenas manter o desempenho até então alcançado, mas avançarem em padrões de interação criativos e sinérgicos para ampliar e conjugar o potencial contido nas capacidades pessoais, institucionais e políticas de cada um
Abstract: This thesis investigate the role of key-people in institutional innovations in governance systems, particularly their effects on the capacity to govern (governability) marine protected areas. We present an empirical study case on the central-southern coast of Santa Catarina state (Brazil) where preliminary indications (in 2007) signalled that governability over the territory was outstanding nationally, partly due to the agency of key-people in a governing system with regional jurisdiction, namely the Baleia Franca Environmental Protection Area (BF-EPA; designated in 200 encompassing 156.000 hectares). We departed from the hypothesis that the agency of key-people in governing interactions (sensu Jan Kooiman) and communicative contexts (sensu Gregory Bateson) linked to the BF-EPA raised the governability of the above mentioned territory in the past decade. Our research included secondary and primary data (semi-structured interviews and participant observation). Analyses were made over general structural and functional governability as well as on specific governing issues with a focus on emergent fishing issues at the BF-EPA Management Council (BF-EPA MC). The trajectory of BF-EPA demonstrated an exceptional case of formal institutional experimentation in face of the operating sociopolitical conditions of the Brazilian State (which poses "wicked-problems", sensu Rittel and Weber, 1979). We have observed that innovation patterns can be explained through changes in governability in seven phases of the focal governing system. The transgressive identity of the BF-EPA Management Council is differentiated by its self-affirmed search for the new, for learning and social collaboration gradually enhanced in a territory suffering from accelerated social-environmental transformation. We described the gradual governability increase starting from the step-zero (sensu Chuenpagdee et al., 2013) of the BF-EPA designation process, leading all the way to 2012 with the opening of a window of opportunity for structural innovation with potential changes spanning to a national level, i.e. official designation of the process of elaboration of a `Strategic¿ Management Plan for the BF-EPA as a pilot-project for the Brazilian state. We describe the coherence and challenges implicit in the innovation discourse and the relevant agency performed by key-persons in each of the seven phases and in critical periods of systemic structuring and reorganization. Key-people were important buffer of disturbances (sensu Holling, 2001) in the governing system, as well as responsible for the incidence and attraction of new frames for action regarding interactive learning and collaboration. They had a fundamental role from the re-structuring of the governing system until the opening of windows of opportunity for institutional innovation and navigation of systemic transformation periods. Their personal attributes affected governability, mainly in improving the formation of images of problems, contributing to the governing system capacity (functional governability) and general conduciveness of governing interactions. We offer some general suggestions for increasing governability at BF-EPA, including: (i) better integration with virtual social networks bonded to the territory; (ii) promotion of interinstitutional structures sensitive to the political diversity in the territory; (ii) better usage of the potential of arts and ludic activities in formal and informal interactions; (iv) application of alternative images than that of the whale (as an icon) for social communication related to the EPA governing system and; (v) improved support of the Brazilian State to institutional experimentation and innovation processes. Some of these suggestions can be also relevant to improve governability of other marine protected areas in Brazil. Finally, even with so many challenges, we suggest that key-person and other actors already share alternative governing images necessary to navigate transformation towards a higher governability regime. While facing obstacles and risks of various orders, the actors will be successful if they are able to maintain and improve the performance achieved so far while advancing in creative and synergic interaction patterns in order to amplify and conjugate the potential contained in individual, institutional and political capacities of each actor

Resumo: As Unidades de Conservação (UCs) são o tipo de área protegida que se configuram como a principal estratégia do poder público para promover a conservação da biodiversidade e recursos naturais à ela associados. A integração dessas unidades à dinâmica territorial, intervindo e alterando-a, quando necessário, é essencial para que sejam cumpridos os seus objetivos de criação. A zona de amortecimento é um dos instrumentos do plano de manejo das UCs que respondem pela integração da unidade ao território. No presente trabalho foram analisados o Sistema Nacional de Unidades de Conservação (SNUC), o Plano Estratégico Nacional de Áreas Protegidas e os planos de gestão do território cujos objetivos e diretrizes influenciam a implementação das zonas de amortecimento. Com a finalidade de entender o isolamento inicial das áreas protegidas no Brasil, foram recuperados os marcos históricos da estruturação político-institucional do Estado brasileiro na área de conservação ambiental: das primeiras ações de proteção dos recursos naturais na época do império até a territorialização da conservação da biodiversidade, que culminou com a criação do Sistema Nacional de Unidades de Conservação (SNUC). Os planos de gestão do território foram apresentados e analisados segundo a perspectiva de integração das UCs aos diversos usos do território. Os critérios para a delimitação física da zona de amortecimento definidos pelo Conselho Nacional de Meio Ambiente (CONAMA) e pelo Instituto Brasileiro do Meio Ambiente e dos Recursos Naturais Renováveis (IBAMA) foram listados e, a partir da legislação analisada, foram discutidos os elementos que elas oferecem para a viabilização das zonas de amortecimento.
Abstract: The Conservation Units are a sort of protected area which presents themselves as being the main strategy of the State to promote the maintenance of biodiversity and its natural resources. The integration of these Units into the dynamics of the territory, causing to intervene in and transform it whenever necessary, is essential so that the objectives of their creation are met. The buffering zone is one of the tools of the UCs management plan which is responsible for the integration of a Unity into the territory. In this study, the Conservation Units National System (SNUC), the National Strategic Plan of Protected Areas, as well as the territory management plans, whose goals and policies affect the implementation of the buffering zones, have been analysed. In order to understand the initial isolation of protected areas in Brazil, it was necessary to retrace the historic events which contributed to the political-institutional organization of Brazilian State concerning the realms of environmental conservation: from the first actions taken towards the protection of natural resources at the Empire Age to the =territorialization' of biodiversity conservation, leading to the creation of the Conservation Units National System (SNUC) The territory management plans have been presented and analysed according to the expectations of the UCs integration into the several uses of the territory.The criteria for the setting of the geographical boundaries to the buffering zones established by the Environment National Board (CONAMA) and the Environment and Renewable Natural Resources National Institute (IBAMA) have been listed, and basing on the analysed legislation, the elements they provide for the viability of the buffering zones have been discussed.

he creation of protected areas has been the main strategy for protecting natural and cultural
resources in several countries including Brazil and has been much progress in recent years
with the creation of new protected areas in several states of the federation including in
Alagoas. However, to achieve biodiversity conservation the existence of protected areas is is
not enough. It is also necessary to implement them and manage them properly so they can
achieve their goals. Thus, it is necessary to make a systematic assessment of training
deployment and quality of management of the protected area. This systematic assessment
must serve as a basis for policy and strategies to increase the effectiveness of protected
areas implementation. The Ecological Station (ESEC) of Murici is a conservation unit under
full protection, created by decree w/n May 2001, in order to protect one of the largest
remnants of Atlantic Forest in Northeastern Brazil. Within its boundaries is located the
Station of sugar-cane Cross and Flowering Serra do Ouro (EFCSO), wich is linked to the
Federal University of Alagoas (UFAL). The EFCSO is dedicated to scientific research of
cross and flowering of sugar cane, aiming to increase its strength and productivity, EFCSO
produces most of sugar cane varieties that are grown in Brazil. The fact that scientific
experiments are conducted with sugar cane, an exotic species for the Atlantic Forest biome,
has caused divergence of views between the Brazilian Institute of Environment and
Renewable Natural Resources (IBAMA) and UFAL about the feasibility of these experiments
within the ESEC. These conflicts had restrain the synergy between these two institutions
face the common goal of sustainable development. The extent to which the partnership
between the two institutions could contribute to the implementation of ESEC Murici is one of
the objectives of this study. For that , the actual management effectiveness of ESEC Murici is
compared with the effectiveness of implementation of a scenario in which this partnership is
present. The prospective methods based on scenarios had been widely used for determining
the degree of management effectiveness of conservation units. One of those methods is the
Rapid Assessment and Priorization of Protected Area Management (RAPPAM), wich was
developed by WWF (World Wide Fund for Nature). This method, being the most widely
applied in the world and in Brazil, was adopted for this study because of its suitability for the
assessment of conservation units under full protection. After the RAPPAM application, this
study has showed the possibility of an increase of about 11% in the management
effectiveness of the ESEC Murici after the implementation of the partnership.A criação de Unidades de Conservação tem sido a principal estratégia para a proteção dos recursos naturais e culturais em diversos países incluindo o Brasil e muito se tem progredido nos últimos anos com a criação de novas áreas protegidas em vários estados da federação inclusive em Alagoas. No entanto, para alcançar a conservação da biodiversidade não é suficiente apenas a existência de unidades de conservação, é necessário também implementá-las e manejá-las adequadamente. Por isso, torna-se necessária a avaliação sistemática do estágio de implantação e da qualidade do manejo das mesmas, que sirva de base para a definição de políticas e estratégias que permitam efetivar a sua implementação. A Estação Ecológica (ESEC) de Murici é uma Unidade de Conservação de Proteção Integral, criada por decreto s/n de Maio de 2001, com o intuito de proteger um dos maiores remanescentes da Mata Atlântica do Nordeste Brasileiro. Dentro dos seus limites situa-se a Estação de Floração e Cruzamento de Serra do Ouro (EFCSO) vinculada à Universidade Federal de Alagoas (UFAL). A EFCSO dedica-se a pesquisas científicas de cruzamento e floração de cana-de-açúcar objetivando o seu beneficiamento em resistência e produtividade, produzindo sementes da maioria das variedades que se cultivam no Brasil. O fato dos experimentos científicos serem realizados com cana-deaçúcar, espécie exótica para o bioma da Mata Atlântica, tem suscitado divergência de opiniões entre o Instituto Brasileiro do Meio Ambiente e dos Recursos Naturais Renováveis (IBAMA) e a UFAL quanto à viabilidade destes experimentos no interior da ESEC. Estes conflitos têm impossibilitado a sinergia entre estas duas instituições face à meta comum do desenvolvimento sustentável. Em que medida a parceria entre as duas instituições poderá contribuir para a implementação da ESEC Murici é um dos objetivos deste estudo. Para tanto foi comparada a efetividade de manejo da ESEC Murici no grau em que se encontra hoje com a efetividade de implementação num cenário em que a referida parceria já seja uma realidade. Os métodos prospectivos baseados em cenários vêm sendo amplamente utilizados para determinação do grau de efetivação de gestão das unidades de conservação. De entre estes métodos destaca-se o Rapid Assessment and Priorization of Protected Area Management (RAPPAM) desenvolvido pela WWF (Fundo Mundial para a Natureza). Este método, sendo o mais amplamente aplicado no mundo e no Brasil, foi adotado para este estudo por ser adequado para a avaliação das unidades de conservação de proteção integral. Após a aplicação do método RAPPAM, verificou-se a possibilidade de um incremento de cerca de 11 % na efetividade de manejo da ESEC Murici com a concretização da parceria.

Texto completoResumen
Ce travail a permis de démontrer que l’avenir de la conservation des ressources biologiques ne se joue pas seulement dans les aires protégées, mais aussi que l’intégration des zones non protégées dans un plan de gestion rationnelle du territoire pourrait être un gage de conservation à long terme. En outre, il a aussi démontré aux différents acteurs que la présence d’une aire protégée dans une localité n’est pas sans effets sur les zones périphériques. Pour ce faire, 65 impacts des parcs nationaux sur les zones périphériques ont été répertoriés dont 28 impacts positifs soit 43% contre 37 impacts négatifs soit 57%. Les impacts socio-économiques sont les plus nombreux suivis des impacts culturels et des impacts écologiques.L’analyse critique et comparative, qui s’est inscrite dans la perspective du paradigme de développement durable, a révélé que beaucoup d’impacts écologiques se manifestent à long terme. Les impacts socio-économiques et culturels négatifs sont mieux gérés dans une approche de gestion participative par opposition à une gestion trop centralisée et exclusive. Les facteurs extrinsèques qui ont influencé l’intensité des impacts sont d’ordre socio-politique, démographique, climatique, les systèmes de cultures locales et l’empreinte écologique des centres urbains situés à proximité. Cette influence témoigne de la difficulté à dissocier les impacts imputés aux créations des espaces protégés de ceux générés par d’autres facteurs. Ce qui justifie à suffisance que non seulement les impacts sont multiformes mais s’expriment différemment selon les contextes. En outre, les approches participatives permettent de faire accepter les impacts négatifs sans pouvoir les atténuer totalementThis work has enabled to show that the future of biological resources safeguarding is not only to be performed on the protected areas but also the integration of non protected areas in the rational management framework of the territory could be a guarantee of a sustainable safeguarding. Moreover, it has also shown to different actors that the presence of a protected area in a location is not without impact on surrounding areas. In this case, 65 national parks impacts on the surrounding areas have been identified meaning there are 28 positive impacts representing 43% against 37 negative impacts representing 57%. Socio-economic impacts are the most numerous followed by cultural impacts and ecological impacts.In order to get these results, two case studies have been performed on Manda and Sena Oura national parks in Chad, all located in the southern area. These are two national parks of the differents generations. In the study framework, 152 people have been surveyed among which there are 19 civil servants, 11 development representatives and 122 members of local communities adjacent to national parks. The satellite images have completed the analysis agenda.The critical and comparative analysis which is included in the perspective of the sustainable development paradigm has revealed that many ecological impacts will occur in long term. The negative socio economic and cultural impacts are best managed in a participative management approach as opposed to a too centralized and exclusive management. The intrinsic factors which have influenced the intensity of impacts are of socio political, demographic, climatic order, the local culture systems and ecological footprints of urban centers nearby. This influence witnesses the difficulty to separate impacts attributed to the creation of protected areas from those generated by other factors

Resumo: A fragmentação florestal, resultante do processo de substituição da cobertura vegetal nativa por áreas antrópicas, é responsável pela redução do tamanho das manchas florestais e é a principal causa da extinção de espécies da fauna e flora nativas. A implementação de corredores ecológicos que conectam fragmentos de habitat configura-se como uma estratégia de conservação da biodiversidade que permite a proteção dos recursos naturais, favorecendo o fluxo de animais e de sementes entre os fragmentos anteriormente isolados. Técnicas de geoprocessamento e análise espacial podem auxiliar na determinação dos locais mais adequados para alocação dos corredores ecológicos, uma vez que permitem a obtenção, organização e disponibilização dos dados de forma eficiente e integradora. O objetivo principal deste trabalho é o mapeamento de corredores ecológicos na Área de Proteção Ambiental (APA) Fernão Dias, localizada no estado de Minas Gerais, a partir da conexão dos fragmentos florestais remanescentes da Mata Atlântica, representados pela floresta estacional semidecidual, pela floresta ombrófila densa e pela floresta ombrófila mista. Esta proposta de mapeamento de corredores ecológicos foi desenvolvida a partir de uma abordagem sistêmica, de acordo com os conceitos de Ecologia da Paisagem e da escola espacial da geografia que reúne a cartografia temática e as funções de análise espacial para um Sistema de Informação Geográfica (SIG). Foi proposta uma regionalização da APA Fernão Dias em quatro geossistemas, subdivididos internamente em geofácies. Estas unidades de paisagem foram caracterizadas em relação aos seus elementos naturais e às suas tendências atuais do uso e cobertura do solo, tendo sido o geossistema Altos da Terra Fria o mais adequado para a alocação espacial dos corredores ecológicos. Oito vetores de mobilidade potencial da fauna foram identificados e traçados a partir da conectividade dos remanescentes. Estes vetores integram toda a área dos corredores ecológicos e apresentam a possibilidade de repovoamento vegetal de áreas ocupadas por outras classes de uso e cobertura do solo
Abstract: The forest fragmentation, resulting from the replacement of native vegetation by anthropogenic areas, is responsible for the size reduction of forest patches and is the main cause of extinction of native fauna and flora. The implementation of ecological corridors that connect habitat fragments appears as a strategy for biodiversity conservation that allows natural resources protection, supporting the flow of animals and seeds between fragments previously isolated. Geoprocessing and spatial analysis techniques can help to determine the most suitable sites for allocation of ecological corridors, as they allow the collection, organization and availability of data in an efficient and inclusive way. The main objective of this work is the mapping of ecological corridors in the Fernão Dias Environmental Protection Area (EPA), located in the state of Minas Gerais, from the connection of the Atlantic Forest remaining fragments, represented by the semideciduous forest, the tropical rain forest and the araucaria forest. The mapping of ecological corridors was developed from a systemic approach according to the concepts of landscape ecology and Geographic Information Systems. A regionalization of the Fernão Dias EPA in four geosystems, divided internally into geofácies, was proposed. These landscape units were characterized according to their natural elements and their current trends in the land use. The Altos da Terra Fria geosystem was chosen for the allocation of ecological corridors. Eight potential vectors of fauna mobility were identified and delineated from the connectivity of the remnants. These vectors integrate the entire area of the ecological corridors and represent the recovery possibility of areas occupied by other land use classes

Texto completoResumen
Protected areas are well-defined geographical spaces that, in view of their recognized, natural, ecological or cultural values, receive protection. They have the twofold mandate of protection of natural resources and providing a space for nature-based tourism activities. In the last years, the nature-based tourism is experiencing positive and sustainable growth worldwide. Understanding the value attached by visitors to their destination and know their assessment on various activities in which they are engaged during their stay is a key element in shaping tourist’s satisfaction. Objective of this research was to identify the profiles of visitors to tourist destinations within Natural Park of Majella (Abruzzo region, Italy) and to assess the link with their satisfaction. The data for this study were collected by means of a structured questionnaire administrated to tourists who visited the sites of the protected area during the last three summer months. A total of 150 valid questionnaires were obtained and form the base of the data analysis. Through a Bayesian model-based clustering, better known as Bayesian Profile Regression, we partition visitors into clusters, characterized by similar profiles in terms of their demographic characteristics (age, gender, education attainment), as well as, in terms of the features of their travel behaviour (accommodation, length of stay, past visitation experience). A further benefit of the followed approach lies in the ability of that Bayesian technique of simultaneously estimating the contribute of all covariates to the outcome of interest. In our context, we explore the association of detected groups with the tourists’ satisfaction. In the survey, the global quality of tourism service is segmented into single features and respondents were asked to give their level of appreciation on a five-point Likert satisfaction scale. To estimate the latent trait measured by the items and related to the overall satisfaction we followed an IRT modelling.

AbstractIn a framework of multiple services supplied simultaneously by forests, the protection against natural hazards is one of the most important. Forests deliver conservation of natural resources, including soil and water, and other environmental services. They slow water dispersion and allow for infiltration and percolation of rainwater, which recharges soil and underground water storage. Forest cover, moreover, protects soil from wind and water erosion, avalanches and landslides. INFC collects a wide range of information related to the protective function of Italian wooded areas. This chapter shows estimates regarding such physical site characteristics, as slope, land position and aspect which, together with tree canopy coverage and terrain roughness, can condition the protective role of forests. Inventory statistics on terrain instability and hydrogeological constraint, as defined by national laws, are shown as well, the latter being a basis of most national and regional regulations on forest management. Finally, the presence of a primary designated management objective has been assessed with a particular focus on direct and indirect protection. Estimates on such attributes are shown in the last section of this chapter.

Texto completoResumen
AbstractThis chapter adopts a desktop review of diverse literature to understand the legal, cultural and religious underpinning of sustainable soil governance in Africa. The role of traditional knowledge systems in achieving sustainable soil governance in Africa will also be evaluated. The African Union recognises five geographic regions on the continent namely, North, South, West, East and Central. A sixth region consisting of people of African descent living outside the continent is also categorized but it is not materially relevant for the present analysis. The countries highlighted in this chapter are only used representatively of the entire continent to the extent possible. Africa is a large continent with diverse traditions, cultures and religions upon which the legal systems responsible for natural resources and environmental protection are anchored. It is therefore impossible to discuss any issue pertinent to the continent with homogeneity. Africa is no doubt one of the most resource-abundant continents. Natural resources such as gold, diamond, oil, natural gas, copper, uranium, among others are mined in different parts of the continent. Almost every country in Africa has a deposit of natural resources because the continent is endowed with about 97% of the world’s chromium, 90% of the world’s cobalt, 85% of the word’s platinum, 70% of the world’s cocoa, and 60% of the world’s coffee. Despite this abundance of natural resources, Africa is also among the poorest continents. One of the factors that has led to the continent’s extreme poverty levels is that the extraction of land or soil based natural resources is minimally utilised to the benefit of the African countries themselves. The process of natural resources extraction causes immense damage primarily to land and soil as well as the general environment. Against this background, this chapter assesses how culture, traditional norms and religion have shaped sustainable soil governance in Africa.

Environmental protection has been a very important issue for decades. The re-use of natural resources, the mass production of waste, the deterioration of the quality of the biosphere, human activity and action in conjunction with scientific and technological progress have led to an ever-increasing degradation of the quality of the environment. However, human activity in relation to environmental protection does not have to be only negative in nature but it is up to us and our best conscience to carry out positive and beneficial activities in relation to the environment and thus reduce negative impacts to the minimum. Today, there are many conscious individuals among us who are really aware and conscious about the sustainable concept.

AbstractRapid economic development and urbanization are changing land management systems in many countries, including Thailand, and climate change has emerged as a significant source of risks. These changes are having major impacts on the status of soil resources in Thailand. Therefore, the soils are under increasing pressure of intensification leading to soil degradation including erosion, contamination, the decline in nutrients, compaction, salinization, acidification, and biodiversity loss of soils. Therefore, sustainable soil management is important for maintaining the capacity of soil to function according to its potential and management strategies, which is essential for the maintenance of human well-being and the conservation of biodiversity. In addition, any assessment of soil threats, measures against soil threats, and their effects on soil functions and ecosystem services should consider local conditions, national and global strategies e.g. biophysical characteristics, economic society, policies, and laws. In Thailand, soil and land protection are regulated by legislation and land use planning document such as the Forest Act and the National Forest Act, the Law on Environmental Protection, the Law on Land Protection, and the Law on Agricultural Land. Land use planning regulations represent the basis for supervision of the land use of all types and purposes and the management of natural resources, implementing guidelines for space preservation and protection, and measures of sustainable use of land resources. Furthermore, there is a pressing need to determine the status of sustainable soil management efforts and raise awareness of soil in Thailand.

AbstractFrom ancient flood management practices driven by agricultural activities to dam’s policy for water resources management including flood protection, to the National Strategy for Natural Disaster Risk Integrated Management; Morocco has come a long way in flood risk management. This chapter describes the recurrent flooding phenomenon plaguing the country along with progress in flood risk assessment approaches in terms of technique, governance, and best practices. An extensive number of research articles, administrative documents, consultancy, and international organizations reports are analyzed to give a holistic up-to-date insight into flood risk management in Morocco and present a comprehensive and critical view from a scientific perspective. Information and data were collected from a range of various sources and synthesized to integrate all scientific and governance aspects. Though analysis of this landscape shows progresses made by the Government to protect the population and reduce flood risk, it also shows shortcomings and challenges still to be overcome. Thus, a SWOT analysis was carried out for scoping and identifying the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats pertaining to this issue. The analysis reveals various success and failure factors related to three major components: governance, risk assessment approaches, and flood risk mitigation measures sustainability.

The Republic of Serbia is facing major challenges in improving environmental protection system, in the context of socio-economic reforms towards a market economy and civil society. The process involves improving current environmental policies and sectoral policies towards management of the environment and natural resources on the principles of sustainable development. The right to a healthy environment is guaranteed by Article 97 of the Constitution of the Republic of Serbia which states that the Republic of Serbia regulates and ensures sustainable development, system protection and improvement of the environment, protection and enhancement of flora and fauna and others. The system of legal norms in the field of protection and improvement of the environment in our country makes a large number of laws and regulations, which are entrusted with certain responsibilities autonomous province, the City of Belgrade and the local government.

Specially protected natural territories have one of the most important values in solving problems of the connection between nature and society. Problems of nature and society arise in modern times quite often, since a person uses all the benefits that nature gives him, sometimes they forget that nature suffers greatly from human intervention and that nature needs to be protected and protected from negative influences on it. This study examines how to properly organize the protection of natural zones so that nature does not suffer so much or can recover quickly enough. It is necessary to use natural resources correctly, so that they are always in great abundance, it is also necessary to conduct constant protection and protection of natural resources, so that natural resources are not overused in unnecessary quantities.

Texto completoResumen
The field of nature management is an important component of the national economic complex. The state controls the use of natural resources and the preservation of the environment. Existing environmental problems related to the use of resources are secondary to the priorities of state economic policy. The most disincentive influence on the dynamics of natural resource attraction and environmental protection is exerted by the institutional irregularity of resource use monitoring processes. This is related to the lack of an effective system of natural resource inventories, the inequality of different forms of ownership of natural resources, and the dualistic nature of the system of management and regulation of natural resources. It should also be pointed out the asymmetry of the system of fiscal regulation and inter-budgetary relations regarding the distribution of resource payments and environmental fees. The influence of environmental factors on the economy is obvious: the economy as a sphere of material production directly depends on the resource base, territorial features and natural raw materials. The quality and quantity of resources and raw materials determine the possibilities and limits of economic growth. Global and local ecological systems are characterized by appropriate resistance to external and internal influences. Possible manifestations of survival under adverse conditions, cyclical and rhythmic processes, balance of natural processes. But these manifestations have certain limits. Certain types of activities can quickly cause changes in the state of natural components and affect the effectiveness of activities. Thus, industrial pollution of the atmosphere in a number of cases leads to crop losses of agricultural products. Discharges of pollutants into water sources reduce fish productivity, etc. Such consequences have the character of external effects in relation to activities that are a source of negative changes in the state of the environment. External effects are not taken into account first, but they significantly affect economic results. Quite often, external costs are difficult to estimate. As a rule, they are costs for society, and in some cases for future generations. Environmental problems cause situations when the economic value of ecological resources is not reflected in the price. This is the main thing for the economy of nature use. The state should play a significant role in the regulation of nature management processes. One of the possibilities of ensuring the resource potential of further development was proposed as a model of the interaction of five main factors: population, natural resources, food, capital, environment. The method of economic-mathematical modeling was used, which was called "intersectoral balance" and took into account the requirements of environmental protection. The results of economic activity - generation of production waste and costs associated with their disposal - were introduced to the existing "costs - output" model.

Water is a “renewable, vulnerable and limited natural resource, an indispensable element for life and society, raw material for productive activities, energy source and transport, decisive in maintaining the ecological balance.” But is water, really, an inexhaustible and permanently renewable element? This is the question that can only be answered by implementing all methods, levers, domestic and international efforts aimed at protecting water and maintaining its natural and permanent circuit in nature. As water is a natural resource with great economic value in all its forms of use, conservation, reuse and saving of water are imperative objectives, which are to be achieved through the development of environmental awareness, the application of economic stimulus and the application of sanctions to those which violate legal rules on water protection. The protection of water quality at the national and international level involves a vast and complex activity of cooperation and collaboration based on domestic legislation and international treaties and conventions to which Romania is a party. The planet’s waters are a unitary whole, but their legal protection regimes vary depending on the category of waters that are protected. As a result of the diversity of legal regimes for water protection, the need for international cooperation has been imposed in order to prevent and combat water pollution, its judicious administration and management. The main normative acts include objectives and rules such as conservation, development and protection of water resources, protection against any forms of pollution and modification of water characteristics, complex use of water as an economic resource, their rational and balanced distribution, conservation and protection of aquatic ecosystems, protection against floods and other dangerous hydrometeorological phenomena, meeting the water requirements of industry, agriculture, tourism, transport and any human activities.

Texto completoResumen
Information technologies are becoming widely used in nature management. Particularly, geographic information systems (GIS) are utilized for a comprehensive study of the natural and economic potential of regions, environmental monitoring, data processing and analysis, natural resources inventory, natural and man-made processes modeling, etc. In the environmental sphere, GIS is the basis for supporting managerial decision-making. The effectiveness of GIS application depends on the developed methodological framework and tools used in solving specific problems. The article considers the development of information methods in environmental management and improves the author's methodology for assessing the region’s ecological and economic state in terms of atmospheric air protection. The study proposes to calculate an environmental and economic integral indicator that reflects environmental trends and economic opportunities of natural resource users on the example of the Sverdlovsk region.

Texto completoResumen
Abstract The development of unconventional reservoir explorations at the Middle Magdalena Valley Basin (MMVB) from Colombia has allowed to determine the natural radionuclides concentration and doses and its interaction with all matrices related with the hydraulic fracturing technic, associated with the local conditions (weather, industrial processes around, and soil). The main objective of this project is to evaluate the behavior of natural radionuclides in the unconventional reservoir environment at MMVB considering all conditions around, comparing the results with other cases related, generating a start point to the radioactive characterization of the area. The study area selected for this project was Kalé, the first research project for hydraulic fracturing in Colombia, locating in Puerto Wilches – Santander at the MMVB, a region recognized for the palm crops. In this case, were selected 81 sampling points for doses (natural background) around Kalé's area using portable detectors and 44 sampling points for activity concentrations using ICP-MS and gamma spectrometry, measuring natural radionuclides such as: U-238, Th-232, Ra-226, Ra-228, K-40 and Pb-210. The results obtained were compared with other cases related around the world in unconventional reservoirs from USA, Argentina and China, and additionally in relation to palm crops. The results of effective doses obtained in the Kalé's area were in a range from 0.07 to 0.39 mSv/y, well below the limit value established by the International Commission for Radioactive Protection (ICRP) of 1 mSv/y, demonstrating a very low risk of radioactive affection. On the other hand, the activity concentrations of natural radionuclides were variables according to radioisotope; for natural decay of U-238 from 18 to 80 Bq/kg, in secular equilibrium with Ra-226; for Th-232 from 22 to 103 Bq/kg, in secular equilibrium with Ra-228, whereas that K-40 showed a range from 162 to 611 Bq/kg and Pb-210 from 37 to 140 Bq/kg. The comparison with other cases around the world demonstrated that Kalé's area is very influenced for the weather, industrial processes around and specially for palm crops, in this way, the behavior of natural radionuclides at MMVB may be closely related not only to the geological conditions, but also with external processes in the area. The results of this project representing an important data to strengthen the baseline of necessary information need to the evaluation of radiometric risks in extractive processes in oil & gas in Colombia, to avoid health and environmental affections.

: A sudden increase in the technogenic impact on the surrounding natural sphere has created a real danger of the environmental crisis. In this regard, research has arisen on strategic projects for environmental protection activities aimed at selecting low-cost and efficient production technologies. The global nature and the colossal variety of the use of natural resources in economic activity directly necessitated the use of a systematic approach, scientifically reasoned informative and financial analysis of environmental management. Thus, the basic basic principles of the environmental management system – environmental management – began to form.
The place and role of environmental management in the general concept of environmental and natural resource activities is considered within the framework of the discipline “Environmental Management”, which is aimed at obtaining information, legal and methodological bases for students in order to research projects and implement concepts of environmental management, rational use of natural resources, promotion of resource and energy conservation technologies. The training manual consists of 8 areas, which highlight the characteristic features of the concept of environmental management, including the organization of the environmental sphere in different enterprises, the essence of environmental marketing, the main statements, types and operations of environmental auditing, waste management and environmental insurance issues, and other nuances.

Texto completoResumen
The Zvezdara urban forest is a protected natural asset essential to Belgrade's green area system. In addition to unique natural and cultural values, the area of the Zvezdara Forest is characterised by a variety of public facilities, especially in the fields of science and research, education and children's daycare. The broader environment of the Zvezdara urban forest is characterised by a great variety of urban fabric, different horizontal and height regulation and blocks in transformation with an incomplete urban matrix. Considering its importance and position in the city, the area of Zvezdara Forest has suffered various pressures from primarily residential illegal buildings, both within the borders of Zvezdara Forest and on its edges. The complexity of the area, different interests and spatial conflicts require a unique approach to the problem of sustainable territorial development of the area and protection of existing green areas. This paper deals with a specific methodological and creative approach to the urban planning of the protected area of Zvezdara Forest and the results of students' work on the subject "Sustainable Territorial Development" at the University of Belgrade - Faculty of Architecture. Students created contemporary urban solutions in conjunction with the protected natural environment and needs and interests of the local community, having previously analysed the theoretical and planning basis, collected information from field research, and observed problems and potentials of the location. In the context of sustainable urban planning and design, the proposed solutions are defined following the possibilities and limitations of the spatial, economic, cultural and social development of the Zvezdara Forest area.

Texto completoResumen
The key question the research in this paper tries to answer is whether those four activities truly represent a viable economic alternative in Latin America's environmentally fragile hinterlands. Several cases in each line of activity are analyzed to determine the level and distribution of the net financial returns they generate. Special attention was devoted to examining the degree to which net returns flow to local populations, as opposed to other economic agents. In general, examination of the rewards local populations can expect to derive from ecotourism and the harvesting of nontimber forest products suggests that allocating time and effort to those activities is unlikely to be very remunerative since unskilled labor is not particularly scarce in rural areas. In addition, little is to be gained by controlling access to natural resources, which for the most part are abundant. Moreover, making the sector-specific human capital and other investments needed for forest dwellers to capture more of the net returns from ecotourism, genetic prospecting, and so forth would probably not benefit them very much. Instead, furnishing them with education and training

Texto completoResumen
The wetlands of the lower Songkhram River basin are protected as a Ramsar site and a regional environmental asset, but they are under threat from numerous factors related to developmental activities. The lower Songkhram River is the last free-flowing tributary of the Mekong River and is a lifeline for over 14 000 households and a haven to many endemic biodiversity species. Local communities in the region have unique associations with the natural resources in the river basin, including the wetlands, and they perceive immense value in conserving these ecosystems. Natural resource policies lack specific guidelines and collaborative approaches for the protection, conservation and management of the wetland resources of the lower Songkhram River. The way forward should be led by a synchronized planning process, collaborative governance of the wetland resources, and empowerment of already existing local community groups.

Martin, Lyra. Inventory for Navajo Sedge, Carex specuicola, along Seeplines at Natural Bridges National Monument. National Park Service, 2023. http://dx.doi.org/10.36967/2301739.
Texto completoResumen
Hanging gardens are an important part of the landscape at Natural Bridges National Monument (NABR) and are the most common type of spring within the park. These hanging gardens support a diversity of plant species including the federally listed threatened Navajo Sedge (Carex specuicola; CASP). CASP is confined to seep and spring emergences in sandstone outcroppings in the Four Corners area. Populations of CASP are known throughout northern Arizona and in southern Utah just south of NABR. Much of the potential habitat in southern Utah has not been surveyed for the species. Occurrences of CASP within NABR are at the northernmost extent of CASP?s range in the region and are also unique because they are in a canyon that is tributary to the Colorado River rather than the San Juan River. Since the extent of CASP populations were largely unknown, the objective of this project was to conduct a follow up inventory for CASP at hanging gardens in NABR to help document occurrences of this species at NABR, its presence and absence in suitable habitat, and suggest sites to be incorporated into the regional monitoring program. Sites with positive occurrence of CASP could be targeted for increased protection by the park. Knowledge of these sites may also be used to advocate for management decisions such as the protection of water resources that recharge the springs of CASP habitat. This project resurveyed 64 previously known hanging gardens for CASP and documented and surveyed 26 new seeps found near the existing sites. CASP was not detected at the majority of sites. Four suspected CASP occurrences were documented, two of which had not been previously documented. Data and clippings of the leaves were taken from all new, suspected, or previously known CASP populations for genetic analysis. Genetic analysis of leaf specimens collected at Doug Fir North, North Doug Fir 7, Sipapu 1, and White Canyon 2 confirmed the presence of C. specuicola at these sites.

A fundamental responsibility of the National Park Service (NPS) is to ensure that the resources of the National Park System are preserved, protected, and managed in consideration of the resources themselves and for the benefit and enjoyment by the public. Through the inventory, monitoring, and study of park resources, we gain a greater understanding of the scope, significance, distribution, and management issues associated with these resources and their use. This baseline of natural resource information is available to inform park managers, scientists, stakeholders, and the public about the conditions of these resources and the factors or activities that may threaten or influence their stability and preservation. There are several different categories of geologic or stratigraphic units (supergroup, group, formation, member, bed) that form a hierarchical system of classification. The mapping of stratigraphic units involves the evaluation of lithologies (rock types), bedding properties, thickness, geographic distribution, and other factors. Mappable geologic units may be described and named through a rigorously defined process that is standardized and codified by the professional geologic community (North American Commission on Stratigraphic Nomenclature 2021). In most instances when a new geologic unit such as a formation is described and named in the scientific literature, a specific and well-exposed section or exposure area of the unit is designated as the stratotype (see “Definitions” below). The type section is an important reference exposure for a named geologic unit that presents a relatively complete and representative example for this unit. Geologic stratotypes are important both historically and scientifically, and should be available for other researchers to evaluate in the future. The inventory of all geologic stratotypes throughout the 423 units of the NPS is an important effort in documenting these locations in order that NPS staff recognize and protect these areas for future studies. The focus adopted for completing the baseline inventories throughout the NPS is centered on the 32 inventory and monitoring networks (I&M) established during the late 1990s. The I&M networks are clusters of parks within a defined geographic area based on the ecoregions of North America (Fenneman 1946; Bailey 1976; Omernik 1987). These networks share similar physical resources (geology, hydrology, climate), biological resources (flora, fauna), and ecological characteristics. Specialists familiar with the resources and ecological parameters of the network, and associated parks, work with park staff to support network-level activities (inventory, monitoring, research, data management). Adopting a network-based approach to inventories worked well when the NPS undertook paleontological resource inventories for the 32 I&M networks. The planning team from the NPS Geologic Resources Division who proposed and designed this inventory selected the Greater Yellowstone Inventory & Monitoring Network (GRYN) as the pilot network for initiating this project (Henderson et al. 2020). Through the research undertaken to identify the geologic stratotypes within the parks of the GRYN methodologies for data mining and reporting on these resources were established. Methodologies and reporting adopted for the GRYN have been used in the development of this report for the San Francisco Bay Area Inventory & Monitoring Network (SFAN). The goal of this project is to consolidate information pertaining to geologic type sections that occur within NPS-administered areas, in order that this information is available throughout the NPS to inform park managers and to promote the preservation and protection of these important geologic landmarks and geologic heritage resources. The review of stratotype occurrences for the SFAN shows there are currently no designated stratotypes for Fort Point National Historic Site (FOPO) and Muir Woods National Monument (MUWO)...

Information in the GRI report may also be useful for interpretation. This report synthesizes discussions from a scoping meeting for Redwood National and State Parks (referred to as the “parks” throughout this report) held in 2004 and a follow-up conference call in 2019. Two GRI–compiled GIS data sets of the geology and geohazards of the parks are the principal deliverables of the GRI. The GRI GIS data are available on the GRI publications website http://go.nps.gov/gripubs and through the NPS Integrated Resource Management Applications (IRMA) portal https://irma.nps.gov/App/Portal/Home. Enter “GRI” as the search text and select a park from the unit list. Writing of this report was based on those data and the interpretations of the source map authors (see “GRI Products” and “Acknowledgements”). A geologic map poster illustrates the geology GRI GIS data set and serves as a primary figure for this GRI report. No poster was prepared for the geohazards GRI GIS data set. Additionally, figure 7 of this report illustrates the locations of the major geologic features in the parks. Unlike the poster, which is divided into a northern and southern portion to show detail while accommodating the parks’ length, figure 7 is a single-page, simplified map. The features labeled on figure 7 are discussed in the “Geologic History, Features, and Processes” chapter. To provide a context of geologic time, this report includes a geologic time scale (see "Geologic History, Features, and Processes"). The parks’ geologic story encompasses 200 million years, starting in the Jurassic Period. Following geologic practice, the time scale is set up like a stratigraphic column, with the oldest units at the bottom and the youngest units at the top. Organized in this manner, the geologic time scale table shows the relative ages of the rock units that underlie the parks and the unconsolidated deposits that lie at the surface. Reading the “Geologic Event” column in the table, from bottom to top, will provide a chronologic order of the parks’ geologic history. The time scale includes only the map units within the parks that also appear on the geologic map poster; that is, map units of the geohazards data are not included. Geology is a complex science with many specialized terms. This report provides definitions of geologic terms at first mention, typically in parentheses following the term. Geologic units in the GRI GIS data are referenced in this report using map unit symbols; for example, map unit KJfrc stands for the Cretaceous (K) and Jurassic (J) Franciscan Complex (f), Redwood Creek schist (rc), which underlies a portion of the Redwood Creek watershed (see “GRI Products”).

A fundamental responsibility of the National Park Service (NPS) is to ensure that park resources are preserved, protected, and managed in consideration of the resources themselves and for the benefit and enjoyment by the public. Through the inventory, monitoring, and study of park resources, we gain a greater understanding of the scope, significance, distribution, and management issues associated with these resources and their use. This baseline of natural resource information is available to inform park managers, scientists, stakeholders, and the public about the conditions of these resources and the factors or activities which may threaten or influence their stability and preservation. There are several different categories of geologic or stratigraphic units (supergroup, group, formation, member, bed) that form a hierarchical system of classification. The mapping of stratigraphic units involves the evaluation of lithologies (rock types), bedding properties, thickness, geographic distribution, and other factors. Mappable geologic units may be described and named through a rigorously defined process that is standardized and codified by the professional geologic community (North American Commission on Stratigraphic Nomenclature 2021). In most instances when a new geologic unit such as a formation is described and named in the scientific literature, a specific and well-exposed section or exposure area of the unit is designated as the stratotype (see “Definitions” below). The type section is an important reference exposure for a named geologic unit that presents a relatively complete and representative example for this unit. Geologic stratotypes are important both historically and scientifically, and should be available for other researchers to evaluate in the future. The inventory of all geologic stratotypes throughout the 423 units of the NPS is an important effort in documenting these locations in order that NPS staff recognize and protect these areas for future studies. The focus adopted for completing the baseline inventories throughout the NPS is centered on the 32 inventory and monitoring networks (I&M) established during the late 1990s. The I&M networks are clusters of parks within a defined geographic area based on the ecoregions of North America (Fenneman 1946; Bailey 1976; Omernik 1987). These networks share similar physical resources (geology, hydrology, climate), biological resources (flora, fauna), and ecological characteristics. Specialists familiar with the resources and ecological parameters of the network, and associated parks, work with park staff to support network level activities (inventory, monitoring, research, data management). Adopting a network-based approach to inventories worked well when the NPS undertook paleontological resource inventories for the 32 I&M networks. The planning team from the NPS Geologic Resources Division who proposed and designed this inventory selected the Greater Yellowstone Inventory and Monitoring Network (GRYN) as the pilot network for initiating this project (Henderson et al. 2020). Through the research undertaken to identify the geologic stratotypes within the parks of the GRYN methodologies for data mining and reporting on these resources were established. Methodologies and reporting adopted for the GRYN have been used in the development of this report for the Arctic Inventory & Monitoring Network (ARCN). The goal of this project is to consolidate information pertaining to geologic type sections that occur within NPS-administered areas, in order that this information is available throughout the NPS to inform park managers and to promote the preservation and protection of these important geologic landmarks and geologic heritage resources. The review of stratotype occurrences for the ARCN shows there are currently no designated stratotypes for Cape Krusenstern National Monument (CAKR) and Kobuk Valley National Park (KOVA)...

Coral reefs are one of the most diverse and valuable ecosystems on Earth. The Mesoamerican Reef contains the largest barrier reef in the Western Hemisphere. However, its health is threatened, so there is a need for a management and sustainable conservation. Key to this is knowing the economic value of the ecosystem. “Mainstreaming the value of natural capital into policy decision-making is vital” The value of environmental and natural resources reflects what society is willing to pay for a good or service or to conserve natural resources. Conventional economic approaches tended to view value only in terms of the willingness to pay for raw materials and physical products generated for human production and consumption (e.g. fish, mining materials, pharmaceutical products, etc.). As recognition of the potential negative impacts of human activity on the environment became more widespread, economists began to understand that people might also be willing to pay for other reasons beyond the own current use of the service (e.g. to protect coral reefs from degradation or to know that coral reefs will remain intact in the future). As a result of this debate, Total Economic Value (TEV) became the most widely used and commonly accepted framework for classifying economic benefits of ecosystems and for trying to integrate them into decision-making. This report estimates the economic value of the following goods and services provided by the MAR's coral reefs: Tourism & Recreation, Fisheries, Shoreline protection. To our knowledge, the inclusion of non-use values in the economic valuation of the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef System is novel, which makes the study more comprehensive.
