National parks have many roles among which 'preserving nature' has become a matter of considerable social, political, economical and scientific concern. One of the major problems concerning National Parks is how to preserve their landscapes and biodiversity. While the diversity of plants and animals can be experimentally assessed, their protection involves the maintenance of their ecosystems and periodic monitoring. Any change in an environment can certainly have some effect on the plants and animals living there and so, the consequences of changes at a variety of scales is hard to predict although variations often lead to a reduction or homogenization of animal and plant diversity. In the long run, the positive role played by National Parks for nature conservation and tourism will be maintained if we ensure that social, economic and environmental goals are closely aligned. This new important book gathers the latest research in this field." --Publisher's description. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 National parks and reserves|xManagement.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85090049 650 0 Biodiversity conservation.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities /subjects/sh87005570 650 7 National parks and reserves|xManagement.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1033667 650 7 Biodiversity conservation.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1429861 655 4 Electronic books. 700 1 O'Reilly, Angus.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n2009041167 700 1 Murphy, Doran.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n2009041168 776 08 |iPrint version:|tNational parks.|dNew York : Nova Science Publishers, ©2010|z9781607414650|w(DLC) 2009024636 |w(OCoLC)320197103 830 0 Wildlife protection, destruction and extinction series. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2010001604 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=390545|zOnline eBook.
