Objective: Provide an overview of range of variability (ROV) concepts and their application in landscape planning and management. Highlight the use of historic range of variability (HRV) in establishing context for the current landscape condition and its potential role in guiding specification of desired future landscape condition. Topics covered: 1. Origins of range of variability (ROV) concep...
متن کاملWhen is a forest a forest? Forest concepts and definitions in the era of forest and landscape restoration
We present a historical overview of forest concepts and definitions, linking these changes with distinct perspectives and management objectives. Policies dealing with a broad range of forest issues are often based on definitions created for the purpose of assessing global forest stocks, which do not distinguish between natural and planted forests or reforests, and which have not proved useful i...
متن کاملAllostery and population shift in drug discovery.
Proteins can exist in a large number of conformations around their native states that can be characterized by an energy landscape. The landscape illustrates individual valleys, which are the conformational substates. From the functional standpoint, there are two key points: first, all functionally relevant substates pre-exist; and second, the landscape is dynamic and the relative populations of...

متن کاملThe history relating to the changing nature of protected area management objectives: towards reconciliation with surrounding landscape
Natural areas have been reserved for thousands of years. However, the reasons for reservation have changed with time. Natural areas management objectives have changed from personal/individual human needs to environmental protection. Unlike old protected areas, new protected areas have multiple management objectives. The management objectives changed from protection for now to protection for the...
