Feasibility of a monitoring programme for the Guiana Shield Initiative

2004 Schut, V. T. |

The Guiana Shield region contains more than 25% of the world’s tropical rainforests, most still in pristine condition. The Guiana Shield Initiative is working to preserve this ecologically important and unique area of the earth. In order to do so, up-to-date and accurate information is needed – a greater part of which could be fulfilled by the development of a suitable monitoring system based on remote sensing methods.

Biodiversity conservation in the tropics : gaps in habitat protection and funding priorities

1997 Murray, M. G. | Green, Michael John Beverley | Bunting, Gillian | Paine, James R. |

This study makes use of extensive spatial datasets, not previously available, to provide for the first time a comprehensive assessment of the conservation status of biodiversity in the terrestrial tropics. The extent to which potential habitats and closed moist forests are represented in protected areas is assessed. Priorities for conservation action are identified on the basis of a country's relative importance for a given habitat and the extent to which it is protected.
