中文簡介

Koedoe是一份同行評議的開放獲取期刊，自1958年出版以來，致力于促進非洲的保護區和生物多樣性科學與保護。Koedoe的副標題是“非洲保護區保護與科學”，旨在為保護區科學與管理的各個方面提供一個論壇，以促進融合和共享學習。Koedoe發表關于保護科學各個方面的原始論文，以及與政策和管理相關的問題。這本雜志提供了關于南非以及整個非洲大陸許多自然保護區的創新的、令人興奮的和基本的科學信息。Koedoe以其開放獲取的平臺，正成為非洲保護科學家、生態學家、生物學家和保護區從業人員的首選期刊。我們以研究各種形式的保護區為特色，從大型國家公園，到小型區域和當地的狩獵和自然保護區，文化和環境遺產，私人保護工作和與生物多樣性保護有關的一般方面。此外，我們通過在非洲和其他地區的各種環境中整合基于證據的政策和管理相關科學，促進共享學習。為此，我們引入了一種新的結構化抽象格式，該格式以一個50字的摘要聲明結尾，標題為“保護的含義”。在該聲明中，作者簡要地強調了他們研究的核心成果及其對保護實踐的影響。隨著全球生物多樣性面臨越來越大的壓力，保護區在維持生境、物種、生態系統服務和確保環境恢復力方面變得越來越重要，傳播可靠的科學和政策信息變得越來越重要。然而，在發展和其他全球環境變化驅動因素的壓力下，保護區的房地產越來越分散。非洲獨特的社會生態系統以及世界上一些最大的保護區具有全球重要性。此外，旅游計劃往往集中在保護區，從而在其他邊緣化地區提供經濟刺激。Koedoe致力于在復雜的社會生態相互作用的背景下理解、記錄和減輕人類發展對自然保護區的負面影響。Koedoe出版令人振奮的原始研究、論文、關于一般感興趣問題的簡短交流、深入和批判性的評論、關于新發行的書評以及核對表，這些構成了進一步發展科學和管理的基礎。

　　英文簡介

Koedoe is a peer-reviewed, open access journal, published since 1958, which promotes protected area and biodiversity science and conservation in Africa. Koedoe, with its subtitle ‘African Protected Area Conservation and Science’, aims to provide a forum for all aspects of protected area science and management in order to facilitate integration and shared learning. Koedoe publishes original papers on all aspects of conservation science, as well as on policy and management-related issues. This journal provides innovative, exciting and baseline scientific information on many conservation areas within South Africa, as well as throughout the African continent. With its platform in the open access arena, Koedoe is becoming the journal of choice for conservation scientists, ecologists, biologists and protected area practitioners across Africa. We feature research all forms of protected areas, from large state national parks, to small regional and local game and nature reserves, cultural and environmental heritage sites, private conservation endeavours and general aspects related to biodiversity conservation. Furthermore, we promote shared learning through the integration of evidence-based policy and management-relevant science across a variety of settings in Africa and beyond. To this end, we have introduced a new structured abstract format that concludes with a 50-word summary statement entitled ‘Conservation implications’, in which authors succinctly highlight the core outcome of their research and the implications thereof for conservation practice. Disseminating reliable scientific and policy information is increasingly vital as global biodiversity faces increasing pressures and protected areas become more important in maintaining habitats, species, ecosystem services and in ensuring environmental resilience. However, the protected areas estate is increasingly fragmented under pressure from development and other global environmental change drivers. Africa’s unique socio-ecological systems, together with some of the largest protected areas in the world, are of global importance. Moreover, tourism initiatives are frequently centred on protected areas, thus providing economic stimulus in otherwise marginalised regions. Koedoe works towards understanding, documenting and mitigating the negative influences of human development on conservation areas within the context of complex socio-ecological interactions. Koedoe publishes stimulating original research, essays, short communications on issues of general interest, in-depth and critical reviews, book reviews on new releases, as well as checklists, which form the foundation on which further science and management is developed.
