M. Georgiadis Johnson with contributions by Stanley A. Ahler, Herbert Haas, and Georges Bonani SERIES PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION Emphasis upon publication as a means of “diffusing knowledge” was expressed by the first Secretary of the Smithsonian. In his formal plan for the Institution, Joseph Henry outlined a program that included the following statement: “It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge.” This theme of basic research has been adhered to through the years by thousands of titles issued in series publications under the Smithsonian imprint, com- mencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to History and Technology Smithsonian Contributions to the Marine Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Museum Conservation Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology In these series, the Institution publishes small papers and full-scale monographs that report on the research and collections of its various museums and bureaus. The Smithsonian Contributions Series are distributed via mailing lists to libraries, universities, and similar institu- tions throughout the world. Manuscripts submitted for series publication are received by the Smithsonian Institution Scholarly Press from authors with direct affilia- tion with the various Smithsonian museums or bureaus and are subject to peer review and review for compliance with manuscript preparation guidelines.

As a Union, IUCN seeks to influence, encourage and assist societies throughout the world to conserve the integrity and diversity of nature and to ensure that any use of natural resources is eq uitable and ecologically sustainable. A central secretariat coordinates the IUCN Programme and serves the Union membership, representing their views on the world stage and providing them with the strategies, servi- ces, scientific knowledge and technical support they need to achieve their goals. Through its six Com- missions, IUCN draws together over 6000 expert volunteers in project teams and action groups, focu- sing in particular on species and biodiversity conservation and the management of habitats and natural resources. The Union has helped many countries to prepare National ConseNation Strategies, and demons- trates the application of its knowledge through the field projects it supervises. Operations are increa- singly decentralized and are carried forward by an expanding network of regional and country offices, located principally in developing countries. The World Conservation Union builds on the strengths of its members, networks and partners to enhance their capacity and to support global alliances to safeguard natural resources at local, regional and global levels.

  • Mau Complex – Importance, Threats and Way Forward
    Mau Complex and Marmanet forests Environmental and economic contributions Current state and trends Briefings notes compiled by the team that participated in the reconnaissance flight on 7 May 2008, in consultation with relevant government departments. 20 May 2008 Executive summary 1. Overview The Mau Complex forms the largest closed‐canopy forest ecosystem of Kenya, as large as the forests of Mt. Kenya and the Aberdare combined. It is the single most important water catchment in Rift Valley and western Kenya. Through the ecological services provided by its forests, the Mau Complex is a natural asset of national importance that supports key economic sectors in Rift Valley and western Kenya, including energy, tourism, agriculture (cash crops such as tea and rice; subsistence crops; and livestock) and water supply. The Mau Complex is particularly important for two of the three largest foreign currency earners: tea and tourism. 2. Economic contributions The market value of goods and services generated annually in the tea, tourism and energy sectors alone to which the forest of the Mau Complex and Marmanet have contributed, is in excess of Kshs 20 billion. This does not reflect provisional services such as water supply to urban areas (Bomet, Egerton University, Elburgon, Eldama Ravine, Kericho, Molo, Nakuru, Narok, and Njoro) or support to rural livelihoods, in particular in the Lake Victoria basin outside the tea growing areas. This figure also does not reflect potential economic development in the catchments of the Mau Complex and Marmanet, in particular in the energy sector. The estimated potential hydropower generation in the Mau Complex catchments is approx.

Dr. McCall's pains­ taking work in describing and unravelling all the evidence contained in this region therefore makes up a volume which is somewhat larger than the normal reports of the Geological Survey, but will nevertheless be of absorbing interest to geologists and geomorphologists.
