The Impact of Conservation on the Status of the World’s Vertebrates

Michael R. Hoffmann, +173 more
- 10 Dec 2010 - 
TL;DR: Though the threat of extinction is increasing, overall declines would have been worse in the absence of conservation, and current conservation efforts remain insufficient to offset the main drivers of biodiversity loss in these groups.
Journal ArticleDOI

Electrohydraulic Discharge and Nonthermal Plasma for Water Treatment

TL;DR: The application of strong electric fields in water and organic liquids has been studied for several years, because of its importance in electrical transmission processes and its practical applications in biology, chemistry, and electrochemistry as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

The value of the IUCN Red List for conservation

TL;DR: It is highlighted here how the Red List, in conjunction with the comprehensive data compiled to support it and in spite of several important limitations, has become an increasingly powerful tool for conservation planning, management, monitoring and decision making.
Journal ArticleDOI

Preparation and characterization of quantum-size titanium dioxide

TL;DR: In this paper, the synthesis of transparent colloidal solutions of extremely small titanium dioxide particles (d < 3 nm) in water, ethanol, 2-propanol, and acetonitrile is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

The conservation status of the world's reptiles

Monika Böhm, +243 more
TL;DR: The results provide the first analysis of the global conservation status and distribution patterns of reptiles and the threats affecting them, highlighting conservation priorities and knowledge gaps which need to be addressed urgently to ensure the continued survival of the world’s reptiles.
