As part of a cold weather military training exercise, 31 military personnel (mean±SD ...

With a shrinking supply of wilderness and growing recognition that top predators can have a profound influence on ecosystems, the persistence of large carnivores in human-dominated landscapes has emerged as one of the greatest conservation challenges of our time. Carnivores fascinate society, yet these animals pose threats to people living near the...

Environmental conditions affect one’s aesthetic experience in natural environments. Understanding that effect requires accounting for the conditions affecting one’s attention and experience.

Dans la crise écologique que nous traversons, la nature, le naturel, la naturalité sont encore convoqués en tant que référentiels de gestion. Cet article discute du fait qu'avec l'Anthropocène, la nature n'existe plus, au sens où il n'est plus aucun système qui échappe à l'impact de l'humanité. Afin de dépasser la dichotomie trompeuse et stérile hu...

Cette étude montrera comment cette dissociation ...

Intensity-based targets are an important consideration in global efforts, but they do not capture all available opportunities to conserve ecosystem values, including those that accrue in low intensity...
