Etude initiale : la réserve naturelle nationale de l'Aïr et du Ténéré (Niger). La connaissance des éléments du milieu naturel et humain dans le cadre d'orientations pour un aménagement et une conservation durables. Analyse descriptive
    Giazzi, Franck

La création de la Réserve naturelle de l'Aïr et du Ténéré (RNNAT) est le fruit d'un processus qui a débuté à l'initiative de l'UICN, du WWF et du PNUE. La RNNAT couvre une surface de 77 360km2 et occupe des paysages très divers. En son coeur a été créée une réserve intégrale dont l'accès est strictement réglementé et dont la mise en place a été initiée afin de créer les conditions favorables à la reproduction de l'Addax. L'étude est composée de deux parties. La première porte sur les principales composantes du milieu physique, déterminantes pour l'aménagement de la RNNAT. La seconde est consacrée aux composantes anthropiques importantes dans le cadre de l'aménagement de la Réserve

1996 IUCN red list of threatened animals
    Baillie, Jonathan | Gärdenfors, Ulf | Groombridge, Brian | Rabb, George | Stattersfield, A. J.

The "1994 Red List of Threatened Animals" was a major advance on its predecessors in clarity of layout and amount of information presented. This is taken further in the 1996 edition, which is also the first global compilation to use the complete new IUCN red list category system. Also for the first time, all mammal species have been assessed. This group and the birds are the only taxonomic classes where a comprehensive evaluation has been made. The reptiles, amphibians and fishes previously listed have been reassessed using the new system, and future editions will aim to cover all species in these groups.
