Criteria and Guidelines: 1. Projects that create habitat that sequester carbon while also serving biodiversity conservation. Planting of native forest trees, mangroves, and wetland restoration projects qualify. Tree-planting programs that use trees showing allelopathic effects (such as Eucalyptus or Blighia sapida) or that have negative effects on understory or epiphytic organisms (such as non-native species of pines), would not qualify for funding under this program. 2. Projects that have a high potential to positively impact the preservation of habitat under imminent threat of destruction. These are projects that will carry out concrete actions aimed at preventing the imminent destruction of forest or mangrove habitat, such as advocacy and awareness campaigns, working with decision makers and developers, and other interventions.. 3. Projects that support the conservation of native organisms while providing opportunities for "social innovation." Projects should support the public good and ...

1. Introduction. The main fishing resources in Brazil have long been overexploited, so that regulatory measures have been taken to prevent the collapse of fisheries (Peres et al., 2001). Some management measures are developed from common knowledge and long-term observation in traditional management systems, such as limited access, seasonal limits, protection of reproductive stocks or juveniles, among others (Berkes et al., 2006). Those measures do not often reach the goal to which they are created, that is, to preserve stocks.. Small-scale fisheries are of great social and economic importance in the fisheries sector, being responsible for a large number of jobs in coastal communities. According to IBAMA (2008), fishing contributes approximately 65.2% of national production of fish in coastal waters. From about 25 thousand vessels of the national fleet, around 23 thousand correspond to the small scale fleet (Dias-Neto and Marrul-Filho, 2003).. The Cananéia, Iguape and Ilha Comprida Estuarine ...

Ten farmers on Rusinga Island, Lake Victoria, Kenya were selected to study the epidemiology of tick-borne diseases (TBDs) and their possible effects on calf performance. During the years 1986-1988 a total of 162 calves were ear-tagged, weighed monthly and monitored closely for TBDs and endoparasitism. The mean (plus minus SD) body weights at 4 months, 8 months and 12 months were 35 plus minus 7 kg, 47 plus minus 10 kg and 61 plus minus 12 kg, respectively. The average growth rate from birth to 12 months of age was 120 g day minus 1, but there were significant effects of year, season of birth and farm on calf liveweight gain. Calf mortality from birth to 12 months of age was high, ranging from 17 to 56 percent among farms, and averaging 33 percent. Twenty one percent of mortalities were diagnosed as due to East Coast fever (ECF) and 14 percent as due to endoparasites. The average annual ECF incidence rate was 22 percent and the ECF case fatality rate 21 percent, but these deaths were recordes on ...

This article is a follow-up on a previous piece in the National Wetlands Newsletter in which we outlined problems associated with a static, local approach to wetland management versus an alternative that proposes a temporal and geomorphic approach (Euliss et al. 2009). We extend that concept by drawing on companion papers recently published in the journal Wetlands (Euliss et al. 2008, Smith et al. 2008). Here we highlight reasons for the failure of many managed wetlands to provide a suite of ecosystem services (e.g., carbon storage, diodiversity, ground-water recharge, contaminant filtering, floodwater storage). Our principal theme is that wetland management is best approached by giving consideration to the hydrogeomorphic processes that maintain productive ecosystems and by removing physical and social impediments to those processes. Traditional management actions are often oriented toward maintaining static conditions in wetlands without considering the temporal cycles that wetlands need to undergo or

During the last fifty years, significant changes took place affecting the land cover types of the dehesa system and their internal structure. Reasons for the changes include the abandonment of rural areas, the Spanish swine plague of 1960s, the application of new exploitation systems (intensive irrigation and agriculture and substitution by exotic plantations) and the intensification of secondary activities such as hunting. Also several important changes in the traditional management (abandonment of rotational activities, production mechanisation, substitution of traditional livestock with cattle for meat production etc.) contributed to the decline of dehesas. As a result, the canopy layer has been extremely reduced in favor of crop fields.. This reduction radically affected mostly Quercus ilex systems. The loss of economic value of acorns, basic swine livestock fodder after the plague, decreased the interest of landowners in tree layer conservation of dehesas. In addition, demand for holm oak ...

The use and management of angico (Anadenanthera colubrina (Vell.) Brenan) by a rural community in northeastern Brazil was examined. By employing different techniques of data collection and population structure analysis, it was determined that this species had multiple uses within the local community (especially as timber and for other wood products), and that local management of this species is based on simple maintenance and harvesting of individuals in agroforest homegardens. The study of the population structure of this tree species indicated that management and conservation strategies must include the participation of the local community.

The level of pigment in the F2s was a surprise as I hadnt noted any anthocyanin expression in the parent varieties. After seeing the F2s, I re-examined some "Tiny Tim" plants grown this year and found they did have anthocyanin expression. The fruit show a level of anthocyanin production comparable to the high-fruit-pigment F2s (image #5), but the small size of the fruit made it hard to notice. The F1 showed a pigment level like the medium-fruit-pigment F2s, suggesting it is a single trait with partial dominance. The color of the calyx and leaf/stem was comparable to the F2 plants with the middle level of pigment for each feature. Looking into the lineage of "Tiny Tim" suggests the middle-pigment trait was contributed from S. pimpinellifolium, used in the breeding to contribute small fruit size to "Tiny Tim". As anthocyanin pigments on the shoulder is common in many wild tomato relatives, I suspect the fruit trait also came from S. pimpinellifolium. ...

Cucurbita pepo belongs to the Cucurbitaceae family. The Zucchini types rank among the highest-valued vegetables worldwide, and other C. pepo and related Cucurbita spp., are food staples and rich sources of fat and vitamins. A broad range of genomic tools are today available for other cucurbits that have become models for the study of different metabolic processes. However, these tools are still lacking in the Cucurbita genus, thus limiting gene discovery and the process of breeding. We report the generation of a total of 512,751 C. pepo EST sequences, using 454 GS FLX Titanium technology. ESTs were obtained from normalized cDNA libraries (root, leaves, and flower tissue) prepared using two varieties with contrasting phenotypes for plant, flowering and fruit traits, representing the two C. pepo subspecies: subsp. pepo cv. Zucchini and subsp. ovifera cv Scallop. De novo assembling was performed to generate a collection of 49,610 Cucurbita unigenes (average length of 626 bp) that represent the first

This study shows no differences between outpatient management of children with asthma by a hospital based asthma nurse and traditional management by a paediatrician. No significant differences were found between groups in any of the outcome measures. The study was powered as a comparative trial, not as an equivalence study. The power was sufficient to show that the difference in percentage of symptom-free days between the two treatment groups was unlikely to be larger than 15%. All primary and secondary end points were comparable between groups at the end of the study (table 2); there was no trend in the data to suggest that an increase in power (for example, as an equivalence study) would have yielded different results.. During the study statistically and clinically relevant improvements in airway hyperresponsiveness, functional health status, and disease specific quality of life were seen. In accordance with earlier studies, children with asthma had poorer functional health status at the ...

The patient suffered no complications following the procedure and was discharged after 48 hours of clinical observation.. Discussion. Splenic injury most commonly occurs as a result of BAT due to motor vehicle collisions. Less commonly it may present following BAT sustained in an assault.. Following the pioneering work of paediatric surgeons, the traditional management of splenic injuries has shifted from operative exploration and splenectomy to selective non-operative management (SNOM).[1] Progressive development in the quality and accessibility of accurate imaging modalities and interventional technology has extended the window of opportunity for splenic salvage.. The management options for splenic injury include SNOM, angiographic embolisation and surgical exploration. Management selection is dependent on haemodynamic status, the grade of injury and the presence or absence of associated injuries. Availability of the requisite skills and resources also influences the management approach ...

The species-rich genus Peperomia (Black Pepper relatives) is the only genus among early diverging angiosperms where epiphytism evolved. The majority of fruits of Peperomia release sticky secretions or exhibit hook-shaped appendages indicative of epizoochorous dispersal, which is in contrast to other flowering plants, where epiphytes are generally characterized by fruit morphological adaptations for anemochory or endozoochory. We investigate fruit characters using Cryo-SEM. Comparative phylogenetic analyses are applied for the first time to include life form and fruit character information to study diversification in Peperomia. Likelihood ratio tests uncover correlated character evolution. We demonstrate that diversification within Peperomia is not homogenous across its phylogeny, and that net diversification rates increase by twofold within the most species-rich subgenus. In contrast to former land plant studies that provide general evidence for increased diversification in epiphytic lineages, we

In one study, otolaryngologists were able to clinically diagnose peritonsillar abscess versus peritonsillar cellulitis with 78% sensitivity and 50% specificity when compared to contrast CT and/or ultrasound.1 Traditional management has been to perform diagnostic (and potentially therapeutic) blind needle aspiration. Yet, blind needle aspiration carries a false-negative rate of 10-24%.2 A recent review highlights that intraoral ultrasound consistently has superior diagnostic and procedural advantages when compared to clinical exam alone.3 Intraoral sonography carries a 90-100% sensitivity allowing providers to differentiate between peritonsillar abscess and cellulitis. A number of case series and reviews now support the ability of EM physicians to accurately diagnose PTA.2,3-6 Further, a recent randomized trial compared POC ultrasound and landmark-based (i.e. blind aspiration) head-to-head amongst emergency department patients. Twenty-eight patients were enrolled with the findings that ultrasound ...

1. The enhancement of biodiversity in meadow grassland, an environmental aim of European agricultural policy, requires definition of appropriate management regimes and the rate at which they enhance biodiversity and change ecosystem properties. We describe vegetation changes in a 10-year trial on mesotrophic grassland that was previously agriculturally improved, plus change in the soil microbial community and fertility, important factors that influence biodiversity. 2. Management treatments were three hay-cut dates, plus two mineral fertilizer, two seed addition and two farmyard manure (FYM) applications. Treatment combinations included the traditional management regime (21 July hay-cut date, no mineral fertilizer, autumn grazing with cattle, spring grazing with sheep), modern variants of this (14 June hay-cut date, mineral fertilizer) and exceptional historic variants (1 September hay-cut date). 3. Sowing seed increased species richness and, in the absence of fertilizer and FYM, produced a ...
