Abstract Reintroduction of endangered species is an effective and increasingly important conservation strategy once threats have been addressed. The greater one-horned rhinoceros swamp buffalo declined through historic hunting habitat loss. We identify evaluate available across their range (India, Nepal, Bhutan) for reintroducing viable populations. used Species Distribution Models in Maxent to...

in this study, we focused on detailed studies on micromorphological and mineralogical properties of three types of peat and swamp, to compare these different ecological area together. to achieve this goal, samples from a highland peat swamp (ghaleh-ghafeh ps), a peat swamp forest (suteh psf) and a costal swamp (galougah cs) in golestan province, north of iran have been considered. these studies...

Between August 2000 and August 2001, 12,216 fish of 73 species were purchased from several local markets in Nakhon Nayok Province, Thailand, and examined for the presence of Gnathostoma larvae. Almost all species were fresh-water fish that had grown naturally, rather than raised commercially. Eight species were found to be infected with gnathostome larvae. The overall prevalence was 5.1% (626/1...

Tropical peat swamp lands in the Southeast Asia which store tremendous large amount of carbon in their peat layer and abundant biodiversity are now endangered by human activities such as deforestation, forest fires, land development and urbanization. To earlier start a better environmental policy for conservation of nature of the tropical peat swamp area is one of the preferential global issues...
