This classification subset includes all alliances and community associations attributed to the Sumter National Forest in South Carolina, as well as some for which more data are needed to confirm their occurrence. This report is intended for use by Forest Service personnel and other ecologists in the area. Fieldwork took place primarily in 1994-1995, during the early life of this project.
This classification subset includes all alliances and community associations attributed to the National Forests of southern Mississippi (Bienville, De Soto, Homochitto), as well as some for which more data are needed to confirm their
occurrence. This report is intended for use by Forest Service personnel and other ecologists in the area. Fieldwork took place primarily in 1997-1998.
This classification subset includes all alliances and community associations attributed to the three National Forests in the northern half of Mississippi (Delta, Holly Springs, and Tombigbee), as well as some for which more data are needed to confirm their occurrence. This report is intended for use by Forest Service personnel and other ecologists in the area. Fieldwork took place primarily in 2002.
This report identifies National Park Service programs for which the proposed methodology would provide a complementary or significantly expanded set of tools to guide the conservation of biological and ecological resources
NatureServe's CCVI uses distribution and natural history information for a species within a geographical area (such as a state) to quickly estimate the the species' risk of local extirpation as a result of climate change. In Nevada, the Index is an integral part of modifications to the State Wildlife Action Plan.
A European Union Directive from 2008 dictates that biofuels and bioliquids cannot be produced from raw material obtained from land with high biodiversity value. The challenge is to provide a methodology and relevant information for all Article 17(c) categories that an operator can follow to avoid these grassland areas.
Forty-two out of 113 species of Harlequin frogs have seen their population cut by at least half, while 30 species are feared extinct. The likely culprits: climate change and the Batrachochytrium fungus.
This review of the best available data on U.S. species posits a dire conclusion the actual number of known species threatened with extinction is more than 10 times greater than the number of species under ESA protection.
Seventeen years ago, the Monteverde harlequin frog and the golden toad vanished from the mountains of Costa Rica. This article traces those and other extinctions to a fungal outbreak spurred by global warming.
This first quantitative assessment of bird community change at La Selva drives home the need to more deeply study the mechanisms and consequences of biological diversity change in tropical forest fragments.
