Book Synopsis The Pan-European Ecological Network--taking Stock by : Marie Bonnin
Download or read book The Pan-European Ecological Network--taking Stock written by Marie Bonnin and published by Council of Europe. This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The pace of biodiversity decline is quickening worldwide. Habitat break-up, pollution, over-use of natural areas and the creation of artificial landscapes increase the rate of erosion, while reducing species' opportunity for migration, dispersion and exchange. In 1995, when the European Ministers of the Environment met in Sofia, they launched the Pan-European Biological and Landscape Diversity Strategy, so as to strengthen environment and biodiversity conservation policies. The setting up of the Pan-European Ecological Network covering Eurasia was one of the key steps taken under the Strategy. Work has continued on this project, and it is now based on the numerous national, regional and transregional ecological networks being set up throughout Europe.In Kiev, in 2003, the Ministers and heads of delegation noted these positive developments, expressed firm support for the creation of the Pan-European Ecological Network and asked for its constituent parts to be identified and mapped on a pan-European scale.This book looks at the implementation of this Network in the 55 states concerned. It has been written by a team comprising, under the aegis of the Council of Europe, numerous government experts and specialists dealing with the issue of ecological networks. It is intended to reassure Ministers, policy-makers and scientists that they made the right decision in supporting the creation of the Pan-European Ecological Network with a view to (re-)creating a true green infrastructure for Europe.

Book Synopsis The Restoration of Sites and Ecological Corridors in the Framework of Building Up the Pan-European Ecological Network, with Examples of Best Practices from European Countries by : Eckhart Kuijken
Download or read book The Restoration of Sites and Ecological Corridors in the Framework of Building Up the Pan-European Ecological Network, with Examples of Best Practices from European Countries written by Eckhart Kuijken and published by Council of Europe. This book was released on 2003-01-01 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The problem of fragmentation and isolation of (semi-) natural habitats throughout Europe is generally recognised. Isolation, together with the shrinkage of the area of optimal habitat, are major threats to biodiversity. They are the triggers for many direct and indirect processes with a negative impact on the viability of natural populations. This study is compiled on the basis of extensive research as well as on the consultation of a large number of specialists in the field of restoration ecology."--Publisher's description
Book Synopsis Conserving European Biodiversity in the Context of Climate Change by : Michael B. Usher
Download or read book Conserving European Biodiversity in the Context of Climate Change written by Michael B. Usher and published by Council of Europe. This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Climate change is likely to have major environmental effects on natural habitats in the next fifty years. Conservation of biological diversity will have to be modified drastically to avoid massive extinctions of species of threatened habitat types. Precise recommendations are made to governments and conservation agencies that collaborate in the framework of the Bern Convention. This publication provides a starting point for discussion about possible adaptation strategies if Europe's biodiversity is to be conserved.
Book Synopsis Ecological Network and Local Authorities Sociological Instruments by : Catherine Mougenot
Download or read book Ecological Network and Local Authorities Sociological Instruments written by Catherine Mougenot and published by Council of Europe. This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ever closer links have been forged between caring for nature on the one hand and human activities on the other. In recent years there has been a shift from an interest in reserve-based nature, which excluded man and human activities, to an increasingly powerful nature-culture relationship. Nature protection became nature conservation and then nature development with the integration of socio-economic and cultural aspects. Within the framework of the setting-up of the Pan-European Ecological Network, these sociological aspects have a great importance for establishing an ecological network where the scientific aspects of biodiversity protection must co-exist with nature management and development.

Book Synopsis Ecological Corridors and Species by : Fabio Corsi
Download or read book Ecological Corridors and Species written by Fabio Corsi and published by Council of Europe. This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report discusses the problems involved in developing an environmental suitability model to manage three large carnivore populations in the Alpine region, for the bear, the lynx and the wolf. The aim is to identify sensitive areas, both in terms of areas particularly suitable for the survival of the species and those which represent broad unsuitable patches) and connecting corridors. It is based on the results obtained by the 'Large Carnivores Conservation Areas in Europe' (LCCA) project developed by the Istituto di Ecologia Applicata (IEA) of Rome.
Book Synopsis Code of Practice for the Introduction of Biological and Landscape Diversity Considerations Into the Transport Sector by : Catherine J. Bickmore
Download or read book Code of Practice for the Introduction of Biological and Landscape Diversity Considerations Into the Transport Sector written by Catherine J. Bickmore and published by Council of Europe. This book was released on 2003-01-01 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Pan-European Biological and Landscape Strategy (1996) aims to halt the degradation of landscape and biological diversity across the European region. Action Theme 2 of the Strategy relates to the integration of landscape and biological diversity into other sectors including transport. This Code of Practice contributes to this progress. The Code relates to linear transport systems, comprising roads, railways and inland navigation along waterways, such as canals and rivers. It aims to assist elected representatives, decision makers, and practitioners as well as nature conservation bodies in the understanding of the main issues and solutions associated with the planning, design and use of linear transportation networks i.e. roads, railways and inland navigation channels, in relation to the landscape and biological diversity. Other modes of transport are outside the scope of this CodeThe Code sets a political and social framework and proposes policy options for the development of new, and the maintenance of existing linear transport systems in relation to biological and landscape diversity. By building on examples, the Code has developed a series of Practice Pointers.
