Overexploitation | term also used defined somewhat differently fisheries hydrology natural resource management.overexploitation lead resource destruction including extinctions.however also possible overexploitation sustainable discussed section fisheries.context fishing term overfishing used instead overexploitation overgrazing stock management overlogging forest management overdrafting aquifer management endangered species species monitoring.overexploitation activity limited humans.introduced predators herbivores example overexploit native flora fauna. |
Overexploitation | history concern overexploitation relatively recent though overexploitation new phenomenon.observed millennia.example ceremonial cloaks worn hawaiian kings made mamo bird single cloak used feathers birds nowextinct species.dodo flightless bird mauritius another wellknown example overexploitation.many island species naive certain predators allowing humans approach kill ease.from earliest times hunting important human activity means survival. |
Overexploitation | whole history overexploitation form overhunting.overkill hypothesis quaternary extinction events explains megafaunal extinctions occurred within relatively short period.traced human migration.convincing evidence theory north american large mammal species disappeared within years arrival humans western hemisphere continents.fastest ever recorded extinction megafauna occurred new zealand ad years settling islands ten species giant moa birds hunted extinction māori. |
Overexploitation | second wave extinctions occurred later european settlement.in recent times overexploitation resulted gradual emergence concepts sustainability sustainable development built concepts sustainable yield ecodevelopment deep ecology.overview overexploitation necessarily lead destruction resource necessarily unsustainable.however depleting numbers amount resource change quality.example footstool palm wild palm tree found southeast asia.leaves used thatching food wrapping overharvesting resulted leaf size becoming smaller. |
Overexploitation | tragedy commons journal science published article garrett hardin entitled tragedy commons.based parable william forster lloyd published explain individuals innocently acting self interest overexploit destroy resource share.lloyd described simplified hypothetical situation based medieval land tenure europe.herders share common land entitled graze cows.hardins article herders individual interest graze new cow herder acquires common land even carrying capacity common exceeded damages common herders. |
Overexploitation | selfinterested herder receives benefits additional cow herders share damage common.however herders reach rational decision buy additional cows graze common eventually destroys common.hardin concludestherein tragedy.man locked system compels increase herd without limit—in world limited.ruin destination toward men rush pursuing interest society believes freedom commons. |
Overexploitation | freedom commons brings ruin all.course essay hardin develops theme drawing many examples latter day commons national parks atmosphere oceans rivers fish stocks.example fish stocks led call tragedy fishers.major theme running essay growth human populations earths finite resources general common.the tragedy commons intellectual roots tracing back aristotle noted common greatest number least care bestowed upon well hobbes leviathan.opposite situation tragedy commons sometimes referred tragedy anticommons situation rational individuals acting separately collectively waste given resource underutilizing it.the tragedy commons avoided appropriately regulated. |
Overexploitation | hardins use commons frequently misunderstood leading hardin later remark titled work tragedy unregulated commons.fisheries wild fisheries overexploitation overfishing occurs fish stock fished size average would support longterm maximum sustainable yield fishery.however overexploitation sustainable.when fishery starts harvesting fish previously unexploited stock biomass fish stock decrease since harvesting means fish removed.sustainability rate fish replenish biomass reproduction must balance rate fish harvested.harvest rate increased stock biomass decrease. |
Overexploitation | certain point maximum harvest yield sustained reached attempts increase harvest rate result collapse fishery.point called maximum sustainable yield practice usually occurs fishery fished biomass harvesting started.it possible fish stock say preharvest biomass adjust harvest rate biomass remains level.case fishery sustainable overexploited stock run point sustainable yield less could be.fish stocks said collapse biomass declines percent maximum historical biomass.atlantic cod stocks severely overexploited leading abrupt collapse .even though fishing ceased cod stocks failed recover. |
Overexploitation | absence cod apex predator many areas led trophic cascades.about world fisheries overexploited point current biomass less level maximizes sustainable yield.depleted fisheries often recover fishing pressure reduced stock biomass returns optimal biomass.point harvesting resumed near maximum sustainable yield.the tragedy commons avoided within context fisheries fishing effort practices regulated appropriately fisheries management.one effective approach may assigning measure ownership form individual transferable quotas itqs fishermen.large scale study fisheries used itqs ones provided strong evidence itqs help prevent collapses restore fisheries appear decline. |
Overexploitation | water resources water resources lakes aquifers usually renewable resources naturally recharge term fossil water sometimes used describe aquifers recharge.overexploitation occurs water resource ogallala aquifer mined extracted rate exceeds recharge rate rate exceeds practical sustained yield.recharge usually comes area streams rivers lakes.aquifer overexploited said overdrafted depleted.forests enhance recharge aquifers locales although generally forests major source aquifer depletion. |
Overexploitation | depleted aquifers become polluted contaminants nitrates permanently damaged subsidence saline intrusion ocean.this turns much worlds underground water lakes finite resources peak usage debates similar oil.debates usually centre around agriculture suburban water usage generation electricity nuclear energy coal tar sands mining also water resource intensive.modified hubbert curve applies resource harvested faster replaced.though hubberts original analysis apply renewable resources overexploitation result hubbertlike peak.led concept peak water. |
Overexploitation | forest resources forests overexploited logged rate faster reforestation takes place.reforestation competes land uses food production livestock grazing living space economic growth.historically utilization forest products including timber fuel wood played key role human societies comparable roles water cultivable land.today developed countries continue utilize timber building houses wood pulp paper.developing countries almost three billion people rely wood heating cooking. |
Overexploitation | shortterm economic gains made conversion forest agriculture overexploitation wood products typically leads loss longterm income long term biological productivity.west africa madagascar southeast asia many regions experienced lower revenue overexploitation consequent declining timber harvests.biodiversity overexploitation one main threats global biodiversity.threats include pollution introduced invasive species habitat fragmentation habitat destruction uncontrolled hybridization climate change ocean acidification driver behind many human overpopulation.one key health issues associated biodiversity drug discovery availability medicinal resources.significant proportion drugs natural products derived directly indirectly biological sources. |
Overexploitation | marine ecosystems particular interest regard.however unregulated inappropriate bioprospecting could potentially lead overexploitation ecosystem degradation loss biodiversity.endangered species overexploitation threatens onethird endangered vertebrates well groups.excluding edible fish illegal trade wildlife valued billion per year.industries responsible include trade bushmeat trade chinese medicine fur trade. |
Overexploitation | convention international trade endangered species wild fauna flora cites set order control regulate trade endangered animals.currently protects varying degree species animals plants.estimated quarter endangered vertebrates united states america half endangered mammals attributed overexploitation.all living organisms require resources survive.overexploitation resources protracted periods deplete natural stocks point unable recover within short time frame.humans always harvested food resources needed survive. |
Overexploitation | human populations historically small methods collection limited small quantities.exponential increase human population expanding markets increasing demand combined improved access techniques capture causing exploitation many species beyond sustainable levels.practical terms continued reduces valuable resources low levels exploitation longer sustainable lead extinction species addition dramatic unforeseen effects ecosystem.overexploitation often occurs rapidly markets open utilising previously untapped resources locally used species.today overexploitation misuse natural resources everpresent threat species richness.prevalent looking island ecology species inhabit islands viewed world miniature. |
Overexploitation | island endemic populations prone extinction overexploitation often exist low densities reduced reproductive rates.good example island snails hawaiian achatinella french polynesian partula.achatinelline snails species listed extinct critically endangered species partulidae considered extinct listed critically endangered.wcmc attributed overcollecting low lifetime fecundity extreme vulnerability exhibited among species.as another example humble hedgehog introduced scottish island uist population greatly expanded took consuming overexploiting shorebird eggs drastic consequences breeding success.twelve species avifauna affected species numbers reduced .where substantial human migration civil unrest war controls may longer exist. |
Overexploitation | civil unrest example congo rwanda firearms become common breakdown food distribution networks countries leaves resources natural environment vulnerable.animals even killed target practice simply spite government.populations large primates gorillas chimpanzees ungulates mammals may reduced hunting certain species may eliminated altogether.decline called bushmeat crisis.overall bird species become extinct since approximately total subject overexploitation includinggreat auk – penguinlike bird north hunted feathers meat fat oil.carolina parakeet – parrot species native eastern united states hunted crop protection feathers.other species affected overexploitation includethe international trade fur chinchilla vicuña giant otter numerous cat speciesinsect collectors butterflieshorticulturists new zealand mistletoe trilepidia adamsii orchids cacti many plant speciesshell collectors marine molluscsaquarium hobbyists tropical fishchinese medicine bears tigers rhinos seahorses asian black bear saiga antelopenovelty pets snakes parrots primates big cats cascade effects overexploitation species result knockon cascade effects.particularly apply overexploitation habitat loses apex predator. |
Overexploitation | loss top predator dramatic increase prey species occur.turn unchecked prey overexploit food resources population numbers dwindle possibly point extinction.a classic example cascade effects occurred sea otters.starting th century phased sea otters hunted aggressively exceptionally warm valuable pelts could fetch us.caused cascade effects kelp forest ecosystems along pacific coast north america.one sea otters’ primary food sources sea urchin.hunters caused sea otter populations decline ecological release sea urchin populations occurred. |
Overexploitation | sea urchins overexploited main food source kelp creating urchin barrens areas seabed denuded kelp carpeted urchins.longer food eat sea urchin became locally extinct well.also since kelp forest ecosystems homes many species loss kelp caused cascade effects secondary extinctions.in one small group sea otters survived remote cove international treaty signed prevent exploitation sea otters.heavy protection otters multiplied repopulated depleted areas slowly recovered.recently declining numbers fish stocks due overexploitation killer whales experienced food shortage observed feeding sea otters reducing numbers. |
