Incorporating evolutionary measures into conservation prioritization.
Conservation prioritization is dominated by the threat status of candidate species. However, species differ markedly in the shared genetic information they embody, and this information is not taken into account if species are prioritized by threat status alone. We developed a system of prioritization that incorporates both threat status and genetic information and applied it to 9546 species of ...
متن کاملMeasure Soil Erodibility in Situ
The assessment of the erodibility of soil materials is essential for analyzing and modeling rill, gully, streambed, streambank, spillway, and embankment erosion. A submerged jet−testing apparatus has been developed and used for characterizing soil erodibility in several applications as cited in the literature. The apparatus has been developed based on knowledge of the hydraulic characteristics ...
متن کاملThe Impact of Haloxylon Plantation on Some Soil Erodibility Indices on the Sandy Lands of Taybad
Erodibility as a dynamic property of soil depends on the soil`s aggregate stability and initial large particles percentage which are resistant to erosion. One of the effective factors on soil erosion is soil aggregate stability and its efficient components. Due to the presence of stabilized sand seas which is affected via different plantation development of Haloxylon in the desert area of Tayba...
