ABSTRACTRural and nature tourism has experienced high growth over the past 20 years. One of the primary

challenges facing rural tourism management is to establish a profitable and environmentally sustainable industry. Moreover, sustainable tourism is a complex concept and it requires that nature and tourism

activity should be studied from an integrated point of view. In this paper, we analyze how the environmental perceptions of entrepreneurs are included into business management. Through a partial

least squares (PLS) model, we estimate several latent factors related to various aspects of business management and, in a second phase, we use the FIMIX-PLS algorithm to achieving a segmentation of entrepreneurs according to the structure of relationships obtained, which may allow identification of

which factors are more related to an “ecopreneurial management”

A South Asian approach to aquatic macrophyte restoration  Gautam Mukhopadhyaya

Department of Botany, Derozio Memorial College, Rajarhat, Kolkata 136, India  

Abstract Degradation by human impact, poverty and limited ecological knowledge pose

challenges for aquatic macrophyte restoration in India. The present paper proposes a framework for restoration of aquatic macrophytes in both freshwater and wastewater lentic ecosystems. The framework includes both ecological and economic aspects of

aquatic macrophytes.

JOURNAL OF AGROFORESTRY SYSTEM

(JAS)

Agroforestry Systems is a peer-reviewed international scientific journal presenting original research results, critical reviews and short

communications on all aspects of agroforestry, including both biophysical and socioeconomic aspects.

Coverage includes investigations of a fundamental or applied nature, research methodologies and techniques, and analytical descriptions of

little-studied but potentially promising agroforestry and other integrated systems involving trees and crops and/or livestock.

The editors choose for publication articles relevant to a broader context than the specific location of the study that provide new insight or

significant contributions to the knowledge base.

Can oil palm plantations become bird friendly? Andrea Nájera and Javier A. Simonetti

 Abstract

Despite the increasing claims that structural complexity in agroforestry plantations is a key variable for enhancing bird biodiversity, few studies have experimentally manipulated the understory component of structural complexity. Here, we examined the impact of removing understory vegetation from oil palm plantations on the richness and abundance of birds in eastern Guatemala, testing if bird richness and abundance are positively affected by the presence of understory vegetation. Oil palm plantations with understory hold more bird richness and abundance than those lacking it. The experimental removal of this vegetation, equivalent to a reduction in complexity, decreases bird richness but not abudance. Our analysis shows clear effects of vegetation removal on bird richness, such that removal reduces richness and abundance to levels found in areas without understory. Hence, leaving or implementing structural complexity within plantations could satisfy the current need of making commodity production a cleaner industry, fulfilling both, the production of highly demanded commodities and the conservation of biodiversity in productive landscapes. Oil palm (Elaeis guineensis) is one of the most rapidly expanding crop in tropical regions, representing the major cause of loss of natural forests and of the decline of endangered species in several countries. Enhancing understory vegetation might reduce such negative effects. This is one of the few experimental tests about how a component of the vegetation and structural complexity of plantations affects birds.

URBAN FORESTRY & URBAN GREENING

Urban Forestry and Urban Greening is a refereed, international journal aimed at presenting high-quality research with urban and peri-urban woody and non-woody vegetation and its use, planning,

design, establishment and management as its main topics.

Contributions should focus on one or more of the following aspects: 1. Form and functions of urban forests and other vegetation,

including aspects of urban ecology. 2. Policy-making, planning and design related to urban forests and

other vegetation. 3. Selection and establishment of tree resources and other vegetation

for urban environments. 4. Management of urban forests and other vegetation.

 Abstract

Green belts are effective tools for mitigation of traffic generated noise. For green belt development it is necessary that plants used for green belts must be tolerant to air pollution. In this study, the Air Pollution Tolerance Index (APTI) of plants commonly used for green belt establishment in Varanasi city, Uttar Pradesh, India was evaluated with the help of analysis of some biochemical parameters. On the basis of APTI and some biological and socioeconomic parameters of plants, the Anticipated Performance Index (API) of these plants was calculated. Among all the plants taken under consideration Ficus infectoria L.

ranks first and is a keystone species. Mangifera indica L. and Ficus religiosa L. were classified into the ‘excellent’ category. The most suitable plant species for green belt development in

urban areas were identified and recommended.

ADAPTIVE BEHAVIORAnimals, Animats, Software Agents, Robots, Adaptive Systems

Adaptive Behavior is a highly ranked, international peer reviewed journal that publishes original research and review articles on adaptive

behavior in living organisms and autonomous artificial systems. The journal explores mechanisms, organizational principles, and architectures that can be expressed in computational, physical, or

mathematical models related to the both the functions and dysfunctions of adaptive behavior.

The journal publishes articles, reviews, short communications, target articles and commentaries addressing challenges in the cognitive and

behavioral sciences and including topics such as perception and motor control, embodied cognition, learning and evolution, neural mechanisms,

action selection and behavioral sequences, motivation and emotion, characterization of environments, decision making, collective and social

behavior, navigation, foraging, communication and signalling.

Abstract

This article examines the interdependency of population-level adaptation (evolution) and individual-level adaptation (learning). More specifically, we assume a trade-off between the two means of

adaptation, that is, a higher individual-level adaptation can only be achieved with a reduced population level adaptation and vice versa. This trade-off is apparent in computational evolutionary systems, and there is also evidence that it exists in nature. As we show, despite this considered trade-off, there exist

environments in which a combined adaptation scheme is optimal. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the optimal adaptive behavior produced by a particular distribution of population- and individual-level

adaptation depends on the environmental dynamics. Finally, we verify that the optimal balance (i.e., an optimal learning effort) can emerge from evolution when there is a trade-off between reproduction and

lifetime.
