Diagnosing wild species harvest resource use and conservation / [recurso electrónico] : Matti Salo, Department of Biology, University of Turku, Turku, Finland, Anders Sirén, Department of Biology, University of Turku, Turku, Finland, Department of Geosciences and Geography, University of Helsinki, Helsinki, Finland, Risto Kalliola, Department of Biology, University of Turku, Turku, Finland. - 1 online resource : illustrations.
Includes bibliographical references and index.
Pt. I. Focus on wild species harvest -- pt. II. Stories from the forest floor -- pt. III. Seven thematic perspectives -- pt. IV. Diagnosis and action.
Diagnosing Wild Species Harvest bridges gaps of knowledge fragmented among scientific disciplines as it addresses this multifaceted phenomenon that is simultaneously global and local. The authors emphasize the interwoven nature of issues specific to the ecological, economic, and socio-cultural realms of wild species harvest. The book presents the diagnosing wild species harvest procedure as a universal approach that integrates seven thematic perspectives to harvest systems: resource dynamics, costs and benefits, management, governance, knowledge, spatiality, and legacies. When analyzed, these themes help to build a holistic understanding of this globally important phenomenon. Scholars, professionals and students in various fields related to natural resources will find the book a valuable resource. Wild species form important resources for people worldwide, and their harvest is a major driver of ecosystem change. Tropical forests regions, including Amazonia, are among those parts of the world where wild species are particularly important for people's livelihoods and larger economies. This book draws on tangible experiences from Amazonia, presented in lively narratives intermingling scientific information with stories of the people engaged in harvest and management of wild species.
