Bibliography on the Conservation of Biological Diversity: Biological, Ecological, Economic and Policy Issues

http://www.apec.umn.edu/faculty/spolasky/Biobib.html

This bibliography contains approximately 4000 references on various aspects of biodiversity and conservation.

 

Biodiversity and Biological Collections Web Server

http://biodiversity.uno.edu/

The Biodiversity and Biological Collections Web Server is devoted to information of interest to scientists studying systematics and other life sciences.

 

Biodiversity Maps Library

http://www.wcmc.org.uk/information_services/bml/

“The UNEP-WCMC Biodiversity Map Library (or BML) is a library of mapped information related to the conservation of the world's biological diversity.”  You can view maps on species, protected areas, climate change, and more.

 

Canada's Biodiversity Convention Office

http://www.bco.ec.gc.ca/

"The Biodiversity Convention Office was established by Environment Canada in September 1991 to coordinate Canadian involvement in the negotiations leading up to the United Nations Convention on Biological Diversity." While parts of the site are currently under construction, the sections on links and activities and consultations are well worth your time.

 

Canadian Biodiversity Information Network

http://www.cbin.ec.gc.ca/default_e.cfm

The goal of this site: "To provide as much information on Canadian Biodiversity as possible, from ALL sectors." The site contains biodiversity information from around Canada, including a searchable database and biodiversity discussion groups.

 

Center for Conservation Biology Network

http://conbio.net/

Projects, resources, information on conservation biology programs, access to virtual libraries, and more are available at this site.

 

Conservation Biology Institute

http://www.consbio.org/

Databases of forest intactness and protected areas are just two of the many features available from the Conservation Biology Institute.

 

IUCN: The World Conservation Union

http://www.iucn.org

This is the official site for The World Conservation Union.

 

IUCN Redlist of Threatened Species

http://www.redlist.org/

Which plants and animals in the world are threatened?  What countries have the most endangered species?  Using the IUCN Redlists, you can search by biome, species, country, and more.

 

Internet Biodiversity Service

http://www.biodiversity.org.uk/ibs/

A searchable database, maps, links, and more are available from this web site, online since 1989.

 

National Biological Information Infrastructure (NBII)

http://www.nbii.gov/

Biodiversity is just one of the current biological issues highlighted by NBII.  Teacher resources and more are provided.

 

NatureServe

http://www.natureserve.org/

Formerly known as the Association for Biodiversity Information, NatureServe is "an international network of biological inventories-known
as natural heritage programs or conservation data centers-operating in all 50 U.S. states, Canada, Latin America and the Caribbean."

 

Program in Conservation Biology, University of California, Riverside

http://cnas.ucr.edu/consbio/CBioHP.html

The home page for the University of California, Riverside Program in Conservation Biology contains a variety of links and maps.

 

The Virtual Library of Ecology and Biodiversity

http://conbio.net/vl/

A table of contents and a searchable database are the highlights of this valuable site.
