Burgess This thesis has been submitted august 2013 to the PhD School of The Faculty of Science, University of Copenhagen Institutnavn: Biologisk Institut (Center for Makroøkologi, Evolution og Klima) Name of department: Department of Biology (Center for Macroecology, Evolution and Climate) Author: Jonas Geldmann Titel og evt. undertitel: Beskyttede områders evne til at bevare landskaber og biodiversitet samt reducere menneskelig trusler Title / Subtitle: Evaluating the Effectiveness of Protected Areas for maintaining Biodiversity, securing habitats, and reducing threats Subject description: This PhD. is part of the conservation theme at the Center for Macroecology, Evolution and Climate (CMEC). The main focus has been to understand how terrestrial protected areas help protect nature and reduce human impact by evaluating changes in state or pressure as a consequence of protected areas as a conservation response. Academic advisor: Professor Neil D. Burgess, Center for Macroecology, Evolution and Climate, UNEP World Centre for Monitoring of Conservation, Cambridge, United Kingdom, and World Wildlife Fund, USA. External advisor: Dr. Lauren Coad, Environmental Change Institute, University of Oxford, United Kingdom Submitted: August 2013 Grade: PhD thesis Cover photo: elephant: wallcloud. rhino: Brent Stirton, 4 Preface This thesis is the product of a three year PhD project at the faculty of Science, University of Copenhagen, based at the Center for Macroecology, Evolution and Climate (CMEC). The thesis has been supervised by Professor Neil D. Burgess, but also Dr. Lauren Coad, Environmental Change Institute, University of Oxford, United Kingdom has functioned as an external supervisor though not officially affiliated with the project. While the base has been the Center for Macroecology, Evolution and Climate all work has involved international collaborators of which I have been able to spend time at many of their institutions. In total I have had 11 different office spaces between; The University of Copenhagen, University of Cambridge, United Kingdom, University of Oxford, United Kingdom, the United Nations Environmental Programme’s World Centre for Monitoring Conservation (UNEP-WCMC), and the Zoological Society of London (ZSL), United Kingdom. In total I have spent a little less than a year between Cambridge, Oxford and London including a four month stay at ZSL. Besides these institutions, this thesis has also been part of the IUCN WCPA/SSC joint taskforce on Biodiversity and Protected Areas. In this group we have had many and very fruitful workshops and meeting in, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, United Kingdom, and United States of America. The thesis consists of two parts. First, a synopsis giving the background, overview, objectives, main findings of the thesis, and some perspectives. The second consist of six research chapters on the effectiveness of protected areas using different approaches and covering ‘state’, ‘pressure’, and ‘response’. Uniting them is the use of temporal data to explore the performance of protected areas. Three of the chapters are either published or accepted for publication. The remaining three are written as scientific research papers. Besides the included research chapters I have been heavily involved in another research project not at the stage to be included in the final PhD. Through the IUCN WCPA/SSC taskforce I have also been involved in a report for the Global Environmental Facility on their protected areas as well as contributed to the 2012 Protected Planet report. While being a PhD student I have also acted as co-supervisor on two master theses, two bachelor projects as well as assisted with the teaching in i) International Nature Conservation (graduate level), ii) Experimental design and applied statistics (graduate level), and iii) organismal diversity (undergraduate level), Jonas Geldmann Copenhagen, Denmark, August 2013 5 6 Table of Contents

The contract is valued at approximately £180 million and delivery of the vehicles is scheduled to be completed by Spring 2012. The announcement means that Force Protection Europe’s unique new light protected patrol vehicle can now lay claim to two important industry firsts. The Ocelot will be the first ever British designed and built protected patrol vehicle to include a fully composite pod to protect the occupants. This innovative module has been developed by drawing on technology from the motorsports industry. Ocelot will also be the first British military vehicle to accommodate the MoD’s new Generic Vehicle Architecture (GVA) requirements. The objective of the GVA project is to create a single, standard digital electronic and electrical architecture for UK vehicles that will enable crew to manage power and handle data efficiently on the vehicle, and for the vehicle to be easily adapted when the need arises. The award is also a significant boost to Force Protection Europe’s supply chain which is 90 percent British by value. Designed, developed and built in the UK by survivability specialist Force Protection Europe and automotive specialist Ricardo plc, together with Team Ocelot partners Thales, QinetiQ, Formaplex, DSG and Sula, Ocelot is the most highly protected and agile vehicle of its size and weight that is available today.

Midgley1 Seed dispersal allows successive generations of plants to be mobile in space and time. Heeria argentea’s AFFILIATION: unusual fruit and its ubiquity in extremely rocky habitats, suggests that this tree requires a specialist 1 Department of Biological disperser. We therefore investigated the dispersal ecology of H. argentea and Hartogiella schinoides. Sciences, University of Cape Town, Cape Town, We found M. namaquensis rapidly removed H. argentea and H. schinoides fruits, moving them short South Africa distances within and between rock outcrops, and consumed only the pericarps. Birds were observed consuming H. schinoides, but not H. argentea fruits, suggesting M. namaquensis is its sole, specialist CORRESPONDENCE TO: disperser. Most H. argentea seeds (65%) with removed pericarps germinated successfully, while intact Joseph White fruits did not. We show rock outcrops represent fire refugia, allowing H. argentea trees to grow to large sizes, with small stems and a co-occurring, wind-dispersed tree, Widdringtonia nodiflora found away EMAIL: [email protected] from these sites. This rodent–tree mutualism is perhaps the clearest global example of directed dispersal and shows that these endemic trees are highly adapted for survival in the southwestern Cape habitat and DATES: are not tropical relicts.

  • Chapter 15 the Mammals of Angola
    Chapter 15 The Mammals of Angola Pedro Beja, Pedro Vaz Pinto, Luís Veríssimo, Elena Bersacola, Ezequiel Fabiano, Jorge M. Palmeirim, Ara Monadjem, Pedro Monterroso, Magdalena S. Svensson, and Peter John Taylor Abstract Scientific investigations on the mammals of Angola started over 150 years ago, but information remains scarce and scattered, with only one recent published account. Here we provide a synthesis of the mammals of Angola based on a thorough survey of primary and grey literature, as well as recent unpublished records. We present a short history of mammal research, and provide brief information on each species known to occur in the country. Particular attention is given to endemic and near endemic species. We also provide a zoogeographic outline and information on the conservation of Angolan mammals. We found confirmed records for 291 native species, most of which from the orders Rodentia (85), Chiroptera (73), Carnivora (39), and Cetartiodactyla (33). There is a large number of endemic and near endemic species, most of which are rodents or bats. The large diversity of species is favoured by the wide P.

V Brně dne 30. 4. 2011 Podpis: ....................................... Poděkování: Ráda bych poděkovala především vedoucímu mé bakalářské práce Doc. Mgr. et Mgr. Josefu Bryjovi, Ph.D. za výborné vedení, odborné připomínky a hlavně za jeho čas a vstřícnost. Tato bakalářská práce byla vypracována na Ústavu biologie obratlovců AV ČR, v.v.i. a byla podpořena projektem GAČR č. P506/10/0983: Comparative phylogeography of Zambezian region in Southeastern Africa using small mammals as a model (2010-2014). Na sběru recentního materiálu hlodavců v Zambii se podíleli zejména R. Šumbera, J. Šklíba, V. Mazoch, J. Zima a H. Patzenhauerová. ABSTRAKT Hlodavci patří stále v některých oblastech světa (např. v tropické Africe) k velmi málo prozkoumaným savcům. Navíc během posledních cca 20 let došlo k velkému rozvoji molekulární taxonomie a bylo popsáno mnoho nových kryptických druhů, coţ vnáší do základního výzkumu další nejasnosti. Tato práce přináší recentní anotovaný check-list hlodavců v Zambii. Literární rešerše je zaměřena především na nové nálezy a taxonomické změny od poslední souhrnné práce The Mammals of Zambia, která byla vydána v roce 1978.
