Cette presentation est destinee a fournir les donnees theoriques, pratiques et previsionnelles du resultat potentiel a long-terme d’un programme de conservation de la biodiversite mene sur un site minier. La mine d’ilmenite de Rio Tinto au sud-est de Madagascar, exploitee par QIT Madagascar Minerals (Rio Tinto QMM), a ete choisie comme site pilote pour tester les outils destines a atteindre et a quantifier l’impact positif net (IPN) sur la biodiversite.

Esta publicacion tiene como objetivo proporcionar los datos, las teorias y las previsions para el posible resultado a largo plazo de un programa de conservacion de la biodiversidad en un sitio minero. La mina de ilmenita de Rio Tinto en el sudeste de Madagascar, operada por QIT Madagascar Minerals (Rio Tinto QMM), ha sido seleccionada como sitio piloto para comprobar las herramientas disenadas para lograr y cuantificar el impacto neto positivo (INP) sobre la biodiversidad.

This publication aims to provide the data, theory, and predictions for the potential long-term outcome of a biodiversity conservation programme at a mining site. The Rio Tinto ilmenite mine in southeastern Madagascar, run by QIT Madagascar Minerals (Rio Tinto QMM), has been chosen as a pilot site to test the tools designed to achieve and quantify net positive impact (NPI) on biodiversity.

This publication provides guidance for terrestrial, marine, and freshwater protected area managers at both system and site levels on the restoration of natural and associated values of protected areas.

Toutefois, le nombre d'aires marines protégées (AMPs) étant bien inférieur à celui des aires protégées terrestres, le manque d'expérience complexifie le processus d'application des catégories aux AMP. L'application des catégories aux AMP a souvent été inexacte et contradictoire.

Sin embargo, con el menor número de áreas protegidas marinas (AMPs) en comparación con las áreas protegidas terrestres, hay menos experiencia y comprensión de la aplicación de las categorías a las AMPs. La aplicación de las categorías a las AMPs ha sido a menudo imprecisa e inconsistente.

With the smaller number of marine protected areas (MPAs) compared with terrestrial protected areas, there is less experience and understanding of applying the categories to MPAs. Application of the categories to MPAs has often been inaccurate and inconsistent.

This booklet describes some of the plants present in and around Lake Tanganyika that can affect its environment and biodiversity. There are many such plants and there will be more, but this small volume is a starting handbook to invasive plant recognition, understanding and management. It contains a selection of species that can are known to be invasive in other situations and some that have already begun to show that tendency in Lake Tanganyika and/or its catchment.
