BIOLOGICAL CONSERVATION

Biological Conservation is a leading international journal in the discipline of conservation science. The journal publishes articles spanning a diverse range of fields that contribute to the biological, sociological, ethical and economic dimensions of conservation. The primary aim of Biological Conservation is the publication of high-quality papers that advance the science and practice of conservation, or which demonstrate the application of conservation principles and policy. Biological Conservation invites the submission of research articles, reviews (including systematic reviews and perspectives), short communications, policy perspectives, and letters to the editor dealing with all aspects of conservation science, including theoretical and empirical investigations into the consequences of human actions for the diversity, structure and function of terrestrial, aquatic or marine ecosystems. Such papers may include quantitative assessments of extinction risk, fragmentation effects, spread of invasive organisms, conservation genetics, conservation management, global change effects on biodiversity, landscape or reserve design and management, restoration ecology, or resource economics. We also welcome papers coming from social sciences including those reporting on advances in conservation politics, ethics, policy, human social structure and biodiversity, and political culture among other subjects. Biological Conservation covers interdisciplinary topics within conservation biology and also provides practical applications of conservation research for land/resource managers and policy makers. We publish articles and thematic special issues that have a global relevance in terms of the topics or issues addressed, and thus demonstrate applications of conservation science and management beyond the specific system or species studied.Biological Conservation is an affiliate publication of the Society for Conservation Biology (SCB).

《生物保护》是国际领先的自然保护科学期刊。该杂志发表的文章涵盖了生物、社会学、伦理和经济等多个领域，为保护环境做出了贡献。生物保护的主要目的是发表高质量的论文，促进保护的科学和实践，或证明保护原则和政策的应用。生物保护邀请提交的研究文章、评论(包括系统的评论和观点),短通信、政策观点,并写信给编辑器处理保护科学的所有方面,包括理论和实证调查人类行为的后果的多样性,结构和功能的陆地,水生或海洋生态系统。这些论文可能包括灭绝风险的定量评估、破碎效应、入侵生物的扩散、保护遗传学、保护管理、全球变化对生物多样性的影响、景观或保护区设计和管理、恢复生态学或资源经济学。我们也欢迎来自社会科学领域的论文，包括关于保护政治、伦理、政策、人类社会结构和生物多样性以及政治文化等方面进展的报道。生物保育涵盖保育生物学的跨学科课题，并为土地/资源管理人员及政策制定者提供保育研究的实际应用。我们出版的文章和专题特刊与所讨论的主题或问题具有全球相关性，从而展示了保护科学和管理在所研究的特定系统或物种之外的应用。《生物保护》是保护生物学学会(SCB)的附属刊物。
