The Changing Cultural Dimensions of Biodiversity Conservation
Research priorities for managing the impacts and dependencies of business upon food, energy, water and the environment
Delivering access to sufficient food, energy and water resources to ensure human wellbeing is a major concern for governments worldwide. However, it is crucial to account for the 'nexus' of interactions between these natural resources and the consequent implications for human wellbeing. The private sector has a critical role in driving positive change towards more sustainable nexus management and could reap considerable benefits from collaboratio…
Identifying robust response options to manage environmental change using an Ecosystem Approach
Identifying and managing the conflicts between agriculture and biodiversity conservation in Europe–A review
Changes in Land Cover and Parcel Size of British Lowland Woodlands over the Last Century in Relation to Game Management
The area and number of woodlands within landscapes managed for shooting pheasants and other lowland game birds are contrasted with those not managed for game. The study locations were sample 1-km squares from the Countryside Survey (CS), a survey of the land cover of Great Britain. Two-hundred-and-thirty-two appropriate CS squares were divided into game and non-game squares on the basis of evidence of management for game. No significant differenc…
Mirabel
In this paper, we present the methodology and some results from the application of an integrating conceptual framework, MIRABEL, to analyze the consequences of environmental change for biodiversity. For 28 European countries, MIRABEL tabulates changes in the status of threatened habitats predicted to result from 10 environmental pressures. Regional variations in the severity of the pressures and impacts are taken into account by compiling separat…
Integrating the environmental and economic consequences of converting to organic agriculture
Set‐aside landscapes
Set‐aside was introduced in the European Community in 1988 on a voluntary basis and, under the reform of the Common Agricultural Policy in 1992, it was a condition for the receipt of area payments for most arable farms in England. The areas of set‐aside land reached around 527 000 ha in England in 1994–95, falling to 253 000 ha in 1996–97. The implications of set‐aside for landscape and biodiversity are discussed, drawbig on farm questionnaire su…
