National accounting either ignores or fails to give due values the ecosystem services, products, incomes and environmental assets of a country. To overcome these shortcomings, we apply spatially-explicit extended accounts that incorporate novel income indicator, which test in forests Andalusia (Spain). Extended nine farmer activities (timber, cork, firewood, nuts, livestock grazing, conservation forestry, hunting, residential services private amenity) seven government (fire free access...
Abstract Roaring in rutting Iberian red deer stags Cervus elaphus hispanicus is unusual compared to other subspecies of deer, which radiated from the refugium after last glacial maximum. In all stags, larynx occupies a permanent low mid‐neck resting position and momentarily retracted almost down rostral end sternum during production calls. Simultaneous with retraction larynx, male pronouncedly protrude tongue most their roars. This poses mechanical challenge for vocal tract (vt) hyoid...

ABSTRACT Supplementary feeding is a widespread game management practice in several red deer ( Cervus elaphus ) populations, with important potential consequences on the biology of this species. In Mediterranean ecosystems food supplementation occurs rutting period, when it may change mating system characteristics. We studied role relative to natural resources spatial distribution, aggregation, and mean harem size females Iberian hispanicus during rut. 30 populations southwestern Spain, 63%...
Deer antlers are costly structures subjected to directional sexual selection that may be sensitive heterozygosity. However, a relationship between heterozygosity and antler development has only been found for select protein-coding loci MHC genes in one deer species (the white-tailed Odocoileus virginianus). Here, we study the multilocus at 11 microsatellite markers size (AS) sample of 367 Iberian red males (Cervus elaphus hispanicus) from two areas with different ecological genetic...
Hunting management of red deer Cervus elaphus populations may tend to increase population densities maximise annual yield. Some studies have shown that density and low winter temperatures affect in central northern Europe, but these results cannot be extrapolated the Mediterranean region where limiting season is summer instead winter. The two regions are predicted experience different climate change effects: while rainfall latitudes, heavier droughts expected region. We studied on 19 hunting...
Abstract Theory predicts that the plastic expression of sex-traits should be modulated not only by their production costs but also benefits derived from presence rivals and mates, yet there is a paucity evidence for an adaptive response sex-trait to social environment. We studied antler size, costly sex trait, tooth wear, trait related food intake longevity, in over 4,000 male Iberian red deer (Cervus elaphus hispanicus) 56 wild populations characterized two contrasting management practices...
Los ninos y ninas de la sociedad actual se encuentran alejados entornos naturales estan necesitados contacto con naturaleza, lo que puede ser el motivo distintos sintomas como estres o ansiedad. Existen investigaciones muestran naturaleza es beneficioso para desarrollo los infantes ademas fomentar una actitud mas pro-ambiental. En este trabajo pretende concienciar al alumnado del Grado Educacion Infantil dichos beneficios mediante ejecucion serie actividades centradas en uso parques urbanos...
Sexual signals play a central role in male-male competition polygynous species. In red deer ( Cervus elaphus ), male’s ventral area become dark during the rutting season due to urine spraying behaviour and retains many chemical compounds potentially revealing individual features. Here we investigate variation size of this trait, exploring its relationship with age male competitive features such as antlers or body size, well populational level intrasexual for mates. We found that patch...
Resumen: Los problemas medioambientales que está generando la especie humana han llegado a tener un carácter global y estar interconectados, llegando conclusión de es necesario apostar por desarrollo sostenible.Una las herramientas clave para alcanzar este desarrollo, no ponga en peligro necesidades futuras generaciones, Educación Ambiental.En artículo se presenta una experiencia educativa llevada cabo el Grado Primaria alumnado ha sido protagonista activo su propio aprendizaje, planificando...
In the last decades, climate change has caused an increase in mean temperatures and a reduction average rainfall southern Europe, which is expected to reduce resource availability for herbivores. Resource can influence animals' physical condition population growth. However, much less known on its effects reproductive performance sexual selection. this study, we assessed impact of three environmental factors related (rainfall, temperature vegetation index) Iberian red deer Cervus elaphus...
Interpreting the landscape that surrounds us is somewhat personal. However, it necessary to explore interpretation made by future teachers so we can reflect on their observations. This study collected data from five academic years of undergraduates in Early Childhood Education (N = 421), who were asked fill out a questionnaire with different items while observing features when walking through park. article demonstrates for very first time trend shown childhood not considering plants as...

Para analizar existencia del se realizaron 93 encuestas telefónicas, obteniéndose más un 50 % no tenían, ya sea falta espacio, habérselo planteado o conocimientos. Casi el 70 sin alegaron conocer técnicas. Con estos resultados, queda justificado objetivo formar al alumnado...
Mammals are the third most threatened group of vertebrates and tropical ones endangered according to recent studies. The Buenaventura Reserve protects 20 km2 Montane Tropical forest in southwestern part Ecuadorian Andes. This study estimates mammal species richness this reserve by using camera traps occasional sightings. We recorded large medium-sized mammals small protected area, which shows reserve's important role conservation these species. also priority that forests should have western...
Research has addressed the valuation of hunting and game species according to their extractive value, using both market non-market methodologies. This study provides a new perspective estimate environmental prices animals based on leases, population dynamics, assumption steady state, use residual method. This, in turn, allows calculation contribution animal stock total income from value by species, sex, age. These values are estimated manner that is consistent with exchange national...
