Evidenzbasierter Artenschutz – Begriffe, Konzepte, Methoden

Bern 2016, flexicover, 184 pages, 20 photographs, 40 figures, 3 tables. Evidence-based means “based on scientific knowledge” and is the alternative to a way of working that is based on opinions, experience and what we commonly call “common sense.” In applied species conservation, evidence-based work requires an elementary understanding of the methods with which we, on the one hand, assess the conservation status of species and, on the other, gain knowledge that helps us to evaluate conservation measures and to design them more effectively. In this book, the most important methods are discussed with their terminology and basic concepts. The book offers help to everyone trying to implement conservation measures for the protection of species and seeking to test their effectiveness. In German.
