Creating a Framework for Change /Klemens, Michael W. / Johnson, Elizabeth A. --INDEXThis new collection focuses on the impact of sprawl on biodiversity and the measures that can be taken to alleviate it. Leading biological and social scientists, conservationists, and land-use professionals examine how sprawl affects species and alters natural communities, ecosystems, and natural processes. The contributors integrate biodiversity issues, concerns, and needs into the growing number of anti-sprawl initiatives, including the "smart growth" and "new urbanist" movements.New directions in biodiversity conservation.Cities and townsGrowthEnvironmental aspectsCongressesFragmented landscapesCongressesBiodiversity conservationCongressesCities and townsGrowthEnvironmental aspectsFragmented landscapesBiodiversity conservation577.27Johnson Elizabeth A(Elizabeth Ann),1954 Aug. 29-1700590Klemens Michael W1700591MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910819316303321Nature in fragments4083710UNINA
