Significant Concentration

The territories located near the administrative boundaries of the subjects of the federation are often relatively intact and are of interest in conservation terms. This is largely due to their poor availability, due to which communities with a significant concentration of rare and protected species are found here. Often, regional protected natural areas are confined to such border territories. A number of examples of the functioning of protected areas of various status and categories near the borders of the Moscow region and the possibility of creating adjacent protected areas of various dimensions and categories in neighboring subjects of the federation are considered.

The article presents comprehensive data on one of the nature monuments of the Kirov region under the name “Zhukovlyansky sandstone spherical concretions”. The status of a specially protected natural area of local importance was granted to it in 2017 due to the presence of clusters of spherical geological bodies of human size, which give the area a very scenic view. They were discovered during the quarrying of gravel and sand materials in the early 80-s of the last century and soon became a reason to put forward various hypotheses regarding the time and methods of their formation. The latter was the motivation for this publication, which is based on field and laboratory geological and soil-geochemical studies carried out by the authors in 2014-18. The results below give an idea of the peculiarities of the spatial structure, component composition and properties of local geosystems, the time of formation of their lithogenic basis, scientific and cognitive, tourist-recreational importance and problems of preservation of the original natural heritage of the region under consideration. From the genetic point of view, the spherical sandstone concretions located within the paleolacial province of the Vyatka Territory are treated by the authors as native Permian formations, not affected or slightly affected by fluvioglacial processes at the Pleistocene stage of geological development. They serve as a basis for the designation of a special category of protected areas on Vyatka land - natural and man-made monuments - as an example of spontaneous creation of nature and man.

AbstractThe sustainable urban redevelopment project to protect biodiversity was developed to regenerate the external spaces of an ancient rural farmhouse, Villa Framarino, in the regional Natural Park of Lama Balice, a shallow erosive furrow (lama) rich in biodiversity, between two suburbs of the city of Bari (Apulia, Italy) and close to the city airport. This work includes a complex system of activities aimed not only at a spatial revaluation, necessary to relaunch the urban image, but it is accompanied by interventions of a cultural, social, economic, environmental and landscape nature, aimed at increasing the quality of life, in compliance with the principles of sustainability and social participation. One of the means to revitalize a territory subject to redevelopment is the planning of events and activities of socio-cultural value that involve the population to revive the sense of belonging to the territory and the community and at the same time to protect the biodiversity of the urban park of the protected natural area.

Protected Natural Areas

The subject of the paper is protected natural areas of the world and their regional differences. According to the IUCN, a protected natural area is “a clearly defined geographical space, recognized, dedicated and managed, through legal or other effective means, to achieve the long term conservation of nature with associated ecosystem services and cultural values”. States differ in their interpretations of the above definition. Very often, some of the sites that are protected areas in one country may not necessarily be considered protected in another country. In defining and management of protected areas, some countries have adapted their laws to international guidelines, while in other countries the legislation differs significantly from these guidelines. Therefore, the research aims to show regional differences in the identification and management process as well as in the total surface area and abundance of protected natural areas at the world level.

In 1997, a restoration of Pinus culminicola was established under three exclusion areas: E1 = cattle plus small mammal exclusion, E2 = cattle exclusion and E3 = no exclusion (free range), in the Cerro El Potosi Protected Natural Area, located in Nuevo León, Mexico. The objective of this study was to determine the survival rate and the increase in diameter and height of Pinus culminicola individuals at three and 17 years after planting. The results show differences between 2000 and 2014 in survival rate and diameter and height growth in the three exclusion areas; E1 and E2 recorded higher averages. The main causes of mortality in this species are attributed to extreme weather conditions and the damage caused by cattle and small mammals.

The results of monitoring the populations of protected plant species of the Omsk region in the territories of Russko-Polyansky municipal district are presented. During the research 210 cenopopulations of 32 of protected plants species were found in total. The locations of 20 protected species at the regional level were identified at the studied district for the first time: Adonis villosa, A. volgensis, Allium clathratum, Alyssum lenense, Astragalus buchtormensis, A. stenoceras, Dianthus ramosissimus, Ephedra distachya, Fritillaria meleagroides, Hedysarum gmelinii, Iris halophila, I. humilis, Linum perenne, Orostachys spinosa, Puccinellia gigantea, Ranunculus polyrhizos, Stipa lessingiana, Tanacetum millefolium, Tulipa patens, Valeriana tuberose. Two species (Stipa pennata, S. zalesskii) have considered as federal protected objects. Three sites were identified where the maximum number of protected species in natural habitats is concentrated, one of them has now received the status of a specially protected natural area of local and regional significance.

AbstractOur objective in this study was to determine the density of the jaguar Panthera onca from camera-trap data, using an open population model, in a private protected natural area, the Northern Jaguar Reserve, and 10 adjoining cattle ranches in the state of Sonora, Mexico. The region is considered a long–term jaguar conservation unit. As well as being the most northerly recorded reproductive population of the jaguar, the arid habitat of this region is atypical for the species. During 16 months of sampling we identified 10 individual jaguars and the data met the three main assumptions of open population models. The estimated mean density was 1.05±SE 0.4 individuals per 100 km2, with a constant survival probability of 0.94 and capture probability of 0.23. This estimate of density is lower than reported in studies of the jaguar from more southerly locations in Mexico, Belize, Costa Rica, Bolivia and Brazil but cannot be attributed to a single factor even though in general there is an apparent relationship between jaguar density and precipitation. The main objectives of the management of the Northern Jaguar Reserve are to reduce the impact of cattle and restore jaguar habitat, with strategies focused on water retention, removal of invasive grass, reforestation and environmental education. Livestock have been gradually excluded since 2003 and, combined with the protection provided under the agreements with the surrounding ranches, the area is now a suitable place for long-term studies of the jaguar.
