Environmental Conservation, Volume 35 Issue 02

Environmental Conservation is one of the longest-standing, most highly cited of the comprehensive interdisciplinary environmental science journals. It includes research papers, comments, subject reviews, and book reviews addressing environmental policy, practice, and natural and social science of environmental concern at a global level. The journal's scope is very broad, including issues in human institutions, pollution and habitat degradation, resource exploitation, terrestrial biomes, atmospheric and oceanic processes, and coastal and land management. Environmental Conservation is essential reading for all environmentalists, managers, consultants, agency workers and scientists wishing to keep abreast of current developments in environmental science.
