As anticipated for the series, this year’s volume contains a
diverse collection of timely reviews on current problems in
conservation biology and their scientific, policy, and management
implications. The collection ranges from a careful review of the
human impacts on native bee populations to examinations of excess
nitrogen deposition in native plant communities, and of mercury in
stream ecosystems. Other papers look prospectively at future human
effects on the environment, including examining the potential
advantages of biofuel production and describing a prognosis for
tropical forests. Others examine the health and economic
implications of environmental change, including reviews of invasive
species and international trade, of emerging viruses, and of
changing immune functions. The aim of the series is to put
scholarly, authoritative reviews in the hands of a broad range of
scientists, as well as those who manage the environment.
