Japan is considered as one of the most successful marine fishery co-management or CBFM regimes. However, in 2001 the Japanese government was obliged to introduce new measures in order to recover several species under overexploitation. One example is the Resource Recovery Plans (RRP) that in all Japan accounts 51 fisheries. This paper attempts to clarify the level of sustainability of coastal fi...

introduction: the area under cultivation and yield of crops are affected by various factors, some of which are controllable and some others are uncontrollable. controllable factors are divided into two types of price and non-price factors. among the price factors, prices of agricultural products and inputs play an important role in expanding the cultivation area. uncontrollable factors also hav...

Annual flood events lead to periodic changes in structural components within seasonal floodplain wetlands. Such change may determine the type and quantity of provisioning ecosystem services (ES) that offer resident communities opportunities for diverse livelihood activities. We elucidate this hypothesis using case study a wetland—Chatla—located Assam, northeast India, by integrating spatially e...

Management studies on corporate sustainability practices have grown considerably. The field now has significant knowledge of sustainability issues that are firm and industry focused. However, complex ecological problems are increasing, not decreasing. In this paper, we argue that it is time for corporate sustainability scholars to reconsider the ecological and systemic foundations for sustainab...

Green SLA (GSLA) is a formal agreement between service providers/vendors and users/customers incorporating all the traditional/basic commitments (Basic SLAs) as well as incorporating Ecological, Economical, and Ethical (3Es) aspects of sustainability. Recently, most of the IT (Information Technology) and ICT (Information and Communication Technology) industries are practicing sustainability und...

sustainable coastal fishing management includes different components and factors. one of the practical initiatives to achieve sustainability is to evaluate or measure different criteria of sustainability and measuring sustainability of each system needs its own indicators. this study aimed to investigate different criteria of sustainable coastal fishing management in beach seine cooperatives (b...

Expansion of cropland in tropical countries is one of the principal causes of biodiversity loss, and threatens to undermine progress towards meeting the Aichi Biodiversity Targets. To understand this threat better, we analysed data on crop distribution and expansion in 128 tropical countries, assessed changes in area of the main crops and mapped overlaps between conservation priorities and cult...

Protected areas are the backbone of biodiversity conservation but vulnerable to climate change. Thailand has a large and well-planned protected area system, covering most remaining natural vegetation. A statistically derived global environmental stratification (GEnS) was used predict changes in bioclimatic conditions across system for 2050 2070, based on projections from three CMIP5 earth model...
