The boundary model: A geographical analysis of design and conservation of nature reserves The boundary model: A geographical analysis of design and conservation of nature reserves
It is widely recognised that nearly all parks and reserves are too small to protect their biological diversity. In response to this problem, we have been developing a multidisciplinary ‘boundary model’ that focuses upon the processes of exchange across the administrative edges of nature reserves. The model incorporates known dynamics from various disciplines and describes the...

Influence of weather and density on lamb survival of desert mountain sheep Influence of weather and density on lamb survival of desert mountain sheep
This report concerns the effect of weather on lamb survival in desert mountain sheep (Ovis canadensis nelsoni) to 6-8 months of age in the River Mountains, Nevada, and how it integrates with density to limit the population. Regression analyses were used to examine relationships between lamb survival and weather variables from 1970 to 1982. Autumn precipitation (Sep-Dec) of the preceding...

Natural fire management in national parks Natural fire management in national parks
An evolving understanding of ecological processes, together with ambiguities in National Park Service policy, have led to multiple interpretations of the role of management in our large natural area National Parks. National Park Service management policies must be dynamic and responsive to changes in scientific knowledge and societal values. We propose that the principal aim of NPS...
