Biodiversity Conservation
A section of Diversity (ISSN 1424-2818).
Section Information
This Section deals with all aspects of biodiversity conservation with special emphasis on active conservation and the development of new methods to solve human conservation problems, improving the rational use of the biodiversity by humankind. The scope of this Section is wide and multidisciplinary and embraces all life forms, providing a forum for examining the conflict between sustainable development and human dependence on biodiversity in such fields as agriculture, fisheries, forestry, green energies, infrastructures, environmental management, species conservation, and solutions for the sustainable use of biodiversity.
As Diversity is a generalist journal, specialized or local studies will be evaluated only if discussion illustrates general questions in relation to biodiversity conservation. Experimental and field studies are preferred, but theoretical studies are welcome if dealing with an original approach to biodiversity conservation.
