The Abu Dhabi Red List of Ecosystems contributes to meeting important targets of the new EAD strategy (2021-2025) by describing the health status and the loss of critical habitats from Abu Dhabi. The outcomes of this Red List of Ecosystems (RLE), together with the Red List of Threatened Species from Abu Dhabi, will provide valuable inputs to help prioritize management plans and public policies to promote the conservation of biodiversity and the sustainable use of natural resources in Abu Dhabi, the largest of the seven emirates in the UAE.

Small-scale fisheries provide food security, livelihoods and income to millions of people but their management still presents a challenge to managers and other stakeholders due to problems in gathering suitable information and its incorporation in fisheries policy. Fishers are a key source of knowledge for assessment of both extractive capacity and value in small-scale fisheries, in addition to providing a broad array of cultural knowledge.

These guidelines are designed to be applicable to the full spectrum of conservation translocations. They are based on principle rather than example and are designed to provide guidance on the justification, design and implementation of any conservation translocation.

Featuring documentary-style photography, this work traces that remarkable story of how a species that was declared extinct in the wild was successfully reintroduced into its natural habitat.

This sixth edition of the Global Reintroduction Perspectives provides 59 case studies covering invertebrates, fishes, amphibians, reptiles, birds, mammals and plants. We hope the information presented in this book will provide a broad global perspective on challenges facing reintroduction projects trying to restore biodiversity.

This report provides an overview of the conservation status of chondrichthyans (sharks, rays, and chimaeras) in the Arabian Seas Region (ASR) and describes the results of a regional Red List workshop held in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, in February 2017. It identifies those species that are threatened with extinction at the regional level, so that appropriate conservation action can be taken to improve their status. A regional overview of chondrichthyan fisheries, management and conservation is also presented.

This fifth edition of the Global Re-introduction Perspectives provides 54 case studies covering invertebrates, fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, mammals and plants. We hope the information presented in this book will provide a broad global perspective on challenges facing re-introduction projects trying to restore biodiversity.
