Conservation Biology
Involves evaluating and monitoring the variety of life in different habitats, helping to inform conservation priorities and actions.
Dedicated efforts to restore populations of endangered species through captive breeding, habitat restoration, and other conservation strategies.
Focuses on protecting and restoring habitats essential for the survival of various species, contributing to the overall health of ecosystems.
Establishment of connected areas that facilitate species migration and genetic flow, crucial for adapting to environmental changes and habitat fragmentation.
Studies species on the brink of extinction and develops strategies to protect them, maintaining the natural balance and diversity of ecosystems.
Utilizes genetic information to guide the conservation and restoration of species, aiming to enhance genetic diversity and reduce inbreeding.
The process of assisting in the recovery of ecosystems that have been degraded or destroyed to return them to a more natural and sustainable state.
Examines how global climate change affects species and habitats, and develops strategies to mitigate these impacts and promote resilience.
Strategies to control or eradicate invasive species that threaten native biodiversity and ecosystem health.
The study of legal frameworks and policy instruments that govern and support biodiversity protection and sustainable management of natural resources.
Oversees the governance and sustainable use of protected regions, ensuring conservation objectives are met and ecological integrity is maintained.
Engages local communities in conservation efforts, recognizing their role and rights in managing and benefiting from natural resources.
Strategic planning to identify conservation priorities, allocate resources effectively, and implement actions that ensure long-term protection of biodiversity.
Specialized area focusing on the protection of oceanic ecosystems and marine species, addressing overfishing, habitat loss, and pollution.
Concentrates on safeguarding freshwater ecosystems and species, which are among the most threatened habitats due to pollution, overuse, and damming.
Studies how landscape structure affects the abundance, distribution, and interaction of species, informing large-scale conservation efforts.
