MONITORING
NATURE provides the most holistic approach for monitoring the conservation
status of protected areas , nature reserves, national
parks
and natural or sustainably used ecosystems and biodiversity.
MONITORING
NATURE offers:
Free for downloading, the
world's most comprehensive monitoring database for storing ecological and management
data for protected areas, nature reserves, national parks
and natural and semi-natural ecosystems, applicable in any climate zone and
suitable for both aquatic and terrestrial environments;
Monitoring
tables on ecosystems data, indicator, threatened and
other species of special concern, water composition and quality data, soil
composition data, natural resources use data, visitor data and protected
areas data, etc.
A manual for ecological
monitoring
techniques and procedures, considerations for different need based
applications and monitoring approaches;
A manual with the
protected areas
monitoring database;
Efficiently designed sets
of field forms for both A4 and Letter Size formats both in pdf and
adjustable .doc formats to collect ecological monitoring
data
in the field;
MONITORING NATURE
is part of an integrated
webnet system that together make up NATURE WORLDWIDE,
the official website of the World Institute for Conservation and Environment,
WICE. It is a seamlessly integrated network of strongly related web sites.
For monitoring purposes you will also
need the use of GIS software for which we recommend that you consult our websites
http://www.ilwis.org and http://www.gis4biologists.info. The
former website offers free for downloading the world's most user-friendly AND most
economical integrated raster and vector GIS software, an open source
GIS, originally developed by an academic training institution from the
Netherlands.
For representative and efficient protected
areas and ecosystems monitoring, an ecosystems map should
make part of the baseline. To get an idea what a good ecosystems map looks like
and how it is made, we recommend that you visit our website http://www.ecosystems.ws.
For a better understanding, the coherence of protected areas systems and its
consequences and needs this has for protected areas monitoring, we recommend you
visit our webpage: http://www.nationalparks-worldwide/national_parks/national_parks_systems_development.htm.
From this page you can download our famous document "Protected Areas System
Planning and monitoring" and the MICOSYS protected areas system analysis
and financial monitoring tool.
NATURE WORLDWIDE deals with
these and many more different topics on nature, the conservation of nature, natural
resources management and
national parks and protected areas. A roadmap to these different themes is given on our general
natural resources management page or you can follow the links from our navigation bar on the left side of this page or our
site map. The navigation bar on your left will help you find your way through the system.
Enjoy your visit to our site!
