Displaying 441 - 445 of 661Measuring Motivations as a Method of Mitigating Social Values Conflict
Alaska's Western Arctic Caribou Herd is an important subsistence resource for communities along its migration path and provides opportunities for sport hunting. Members of local communities have expressed conflict with sport hunters' actions including dispersing caribou away from their communities, failing to salvage meat, and trophy hunting. We measured sources of conflict among village residents and sport hunters' motivations for hunting.
How Attitudes are Shaped: Controversies Surrounding Red Deer Management in a National Park
Attitude surveys among affected groups are established tools for integrating actors into decision-making concerning wildlife management. However, the complexity of attitudes and the fact that general attitudes toward wildlife may differ from those toward specific management measures reveal the risk of misinterpreting the data obtained. This article explores these problems based on a quantitative survey of hunters and landowners living close to the Bavarian Forest National Park, Germany.
Analysis of Arizona's Water Resources System
An analysis of Arizona's water resources system has been implemented. This study uses a qualitative system analysis approach to evaluate the most important components of the system: water supply, water demand, laws and regulations, stakeholders, decision makers, etc. Moreover, the investigation centres on some key components of the water resources system such as water conservation in active management areas (AMA), rural Arizona, population growth, and water rights transfers.
Aerosol retrieval with satellite image and correlation analyses between aerosol distribution and urban underlaying surface
Human activity is one of the most important aerosol sources. Because the underlaying surface feature records most human activities, it is important to recognize the correlation between aerosol distribution and the underlaying surface.
Extraction of landslide-related factors from ASTER imagery and its application to landslide susceptibility mapping
The aim of this study is to extract landslide-related factors from remote-sensing data, such as Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER) satellite imagery, and to examine their applicability to landslide susceptibility near Boun, Korea, using a geographic information system (GIS). Landslide was mapped from interpretation of aerial photographs and field surveying. Factors that influence landslide occurrence were extracted from ASTER imagery.
