Abstract

Traditional knowledge is the setting up of human-nature relationships, and these relationships can be measured through the cultural value given to each species. Due to the loss of biological and cultural diversity, current management and conservation strategies must necessarily consider the value...

Abstract

This study investigated the short-term effects of ski-run development on the dynamics of small mammal populations at Vail Ski Area, Colorado, USA. We compared a new ski run, an experimental ski run with added woody debris, a forest adjacent to a new ski run, and a control forest outside ski...
