Bioconservation

Bioconservation-Definition

1. bio conservation is the protection of global biodiversity starting at local, regional and global communities, ecosystems and cultures and apply to both plants and animals 

biodiversity has 3 components: 
1- Genetic diversity 
2 - species diversity 
3- community/ecosystem diversity 
bio conservation is the protection of global biodiversity starting at local, regional and global communities, ecosystems and cultures and apply to both plants and animals 

2.  Conservation is the scientific study of the nature and of Earth's biodiversity with the aim of protecting species, their habitats, and ecosystems from excessive rates of extinction and the erosion of biotic interactions.^[1][2][3] It is an interdisciplinary subject drawing on natural and social sciences, and the practice of natural resource management.

The conservation ethic is based on the findings of conservation biology.

3. Conservation biology emerged as an organized academic discipline in the United States in the 1980s though much of its theoretical framework was originally developed in Australia. Significant differences of approach in the two traditions were resolved in the late 1990s through the formulation of a consensus framework for the design and adaptive management of conservation area networks. This entry presents an outline of that framework along with a critical analysis of conceptual issues concerning the four theoretical problems that emerge from it: (i) place prioritization for conservation action; (ii) the selection of surrogates for biodiversity in conservation planning; (iii) the assessment of vulnerability of conservation areas; and (iv) the synchronization of incommensurable criteria including socio-economic constraints on conservation planning
