APPENDIX: PRIVATEERS COMMISSIONED AT CHARLESTON. 330 8 $aDuring the War of 1812 the United States government issued "letters of marque" to private individuals authorising them to attack, board and ransom British shipping. Among the most successful of these ships hailed from the port of Charleston harbour in South Carolina, they plundered the Atlantic seaboard searching for British sails on the horizon. 606 $aPrivateering 606 $aMilitary operations, Naval 615 0$aPrivateering. 615 0$aMilitary operations, Naval. 676 $a973.5258 700 $aMouzon$b Harold$01374193 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910158939703321 996 $aPrivateers Of Charleston In The War Of 1812$93407150 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04399nam 22006135 450 001 9911018653903321 005 20250806180239.0 010 $a9783031978333$b(electronic bk.) 010 $z9783031978326 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-031-97833-3 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC32253167 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL32253167 035 $a(CKB)40083118300041 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-031-97833-3 035 $a(EXLCZ)9940083118300041 100 $a20250806d2025 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aInsect Conservation: Developing a Practical Perspective /$fby Tim R.

Integration: A Positive Future for Insects?. 330 $aThe variety of theoretical themes and practical components contributing to modern insect conservation continues to diversify, together with realisation that insects affect many aspects of human wellbeing. Some such topics develop rapidly to become integral features of insect management or recovery plans; others become dismissed as irrelevant or tangential to major conservation effort, even if they are fundamentally important for basic biological understanding. This book includes commentaries on a varied array of topics previously covered in short Editorials in the Journal of Insect Conservation, and which are revisited here to assess, expand and update their wider relevance, and to demonstrate progress in appreciation of insect significance and needs. Some topics have remained highly relevant, even when poorly understood, but the complexity of influences on insect life are appreciated most effectively by including many such considerations in conservation, and understanding their roles in both communication and conservation management. Australian examples throughout the book demonstrate the practical difficulties of conserving a diverse, poorly documented and inadequately resourced insect fauna with a rather short history of conservation concern. The fauna is also one for which conservation interest is growing and for which designs of conservation management plans and designation of priorities are urgently needed as wider strategies also develop. The seven major chapters deal with published Editorials, each reprinted and followed by updated commentary and references, collectively addressing relevance and importance of developments over the intervening decade or so. An introductory chapter aids perspective through a brief account of the fundamentals of insect conservation, and the final chapter helps to integrate the text to provide outlooks based on increased understanding of insect life. The book is intended for students and environmental managers, as well as a more general readership seeking information on how insect conservation ?works? and how to address a number of contemporary issues. . 606 $aInvertebrates 606 $aConservation biology 606 $aEcology 606 $aBiodiversity 606 $aUrban ecology (Biology) 606 $aInvertebrate Zoology 606 $aConservation Biology 606 $aBiodiversity 606 $aUrban Ecology 615 0$aInvertebrates. 615 0$aConservation biology. 615 0$aEcology. 615 0$aBiodiversity. 615 0$aUrban ecology (Biology) 615 14$aInvertebrate Zoology. 615 24$aConservation Biology. 615 24$aBiodiversity. 615 24$aUrban Ecology. 676 $a592 700 $aNew$b Tim R$0872813 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9911018653903321 996 $aInsect Conservation: Developing a Practical Perspective$94430258 997 $aUNINA
