And then this led to broader ideas of buildings that come together through the multiplicity of systems.

C. Biological diversity of inland water ecosystems

Women were responsible for sustaining local ecosystems and biodiversity.

Recognizing that the Caribbean Sea has a unique biodiversity and highly fragile ecosystem,

The decisions reaffirmed the ecosystem approach and adopted programmes of work for marine and coastal biodiversity (decision IV 5), forest biodiversity (decision IV 7), the biodiversity of inland water ecosystems (decision IV 4) and agricultural biodiversity (decision III 11 and IV 6).

Recognizing that the Caribbean Sea has a unique biodiversity and highly fragile ecosystem,

They include the geographical information system of the Ministry of Food and Agriculture (MAGA), the system of environmental indicators of the National Statistical Institute (INE), the information system of the National Forestry Institute (INAB), the information system of the Monitoring and Evaluation Centre of the National Council of Protected Areas (CONAP CEMEC), and the biodiversity clearing house mechanism (CHM).

UNEP, through its biodiversity arm at the UNEP World Conservation Monitoring Centre (WCMC), has produced a number of assessments focusing on species and ecosystems biodiversity including

72. There was a variety of reasons given why certain countries did not have a national drug abuse data collection system.

Recognizing that the Caribbean Sea has a unique biodiversity and highly fragile ecosystem,

The United Nations system plays a leading role in the dialogue among civilizations because of its diversity.

Moreover, the management of cultural diversity in a system of organizations as culturally diverse as that of the United Nations might appear to some as superfluous.

POPs are also a threat to biodiversity, and even have the potential to cause disruption at the ecosystem level.

Marine environment, marine resources, marine biodiversity and the protection of vulnerable marine ecosystems

Without respect for diversity, there can be no unity.

Marine environment, marine resources, marine biodiversity and the protection of vulnerable marine ecosystems

A view was expressed that managing diversity did not represent a problem for staff in the United Nations system.

The latest Millennium Ecosystem Assessment highlighted the importance of biodiversity in supporting human well being and the critical rate at which biodiversity was being lost.

Tropical moist forests are the most diverse ecosystems on Earth, containing 60 to 90 per cent of the world's species.

100. Targets 1 and 2 of the Comprehensive Multidisciplinary Outline recommend that countries that have not yet done so develop systems for estimating the extent of drug abuse.

That's how my interests began and went to the TEEB project.

UNEP WCMC has also produced specialized guidelines on biodiversity assessment and monitoring for protected areas.

A high throughput system such as ERS 1 proved capable of delivering the many images required.

Therefore, the interdependent relationship between biological and cultural diversity constitutes an integral part of the work of the Convention.

Or are there more systematic factors at work?

The impact of biodiversity is often insufficiently understood, which means that we have undervalued its contribution to tackling global challenges. The more diverse the variation of life forms within a given ecosystem, the more resilient it is to change.

These are the places that are the richest in biodiversity and the most important from an ecosystem function point of view.

In certain Asian countries, efforts are being made to introduce an environment policy with a view to enhancing the diversity of the ecosystems.

Recent developments in close to nature forest management provide a model for a decentralized system that can yield good biodiversity conservation, consistent with the ecosystem approach adopted by the Convention on Biodiversity.

(d) Biodiversity to build representative systems of terrestrial and marine reserves, advance the development of the Convention on Biological Diversity programme of work on island biodiversity and facilitate access to genetic resources and the fair and equitable sharing of benefits arising out of their utilization agreed

In addition, traditional knowledge is an important component of the thematic programmes of work on agricultural biodiversity, forest biological diversity, marine and coastal ecosystems, inland waters, and dry and sub humid lands established by the Conference of the Parties to the Convention.

Properly managed, diversity was a force that could create a common value system for the international civil service.

(c) Guidelines for ecosystem evaluation and assessment, with a view to identifying and selecting indicators for marine and coastal biological diversity

It's a system of systems.

The system should also pursue a comprehensive, integrated and multidimensional approach to development.

This is a systemic risk, systemic shock.

System Capabilities

7. The programmes of work on marine and coastal biodiversity, agricultural biodiversity, forest biodiversity and the biodiversity of inland water ecosystems provide the basis for the development of clear and meaningful norms for each theme and the framework through which to pursue the integrative approach in a focused and effective manner.

76. Also notes the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment Synthesis reports and the urgent need to protect the marine biodiversity expressed therein

100. Further notes the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment synthesis reports and the urgent need to protect the marine biodiversity expressed therein

But if you look at the blue data points, which is mechanically ventilated air, it's not as diverse.

These programmes focused on technology transfer and technology cooperation as well as mountain and inland water ecosystems biological diversity.

38. The Secretary General apos s report gave an idea of the scope and diversity of cooperation activities between the United Nations system and the economies in transition.

An international monitoring system comprising facilities and systems for monitoring by photography, radionuclide sampling, on site and off site sensors and other data collection systems

We began the project with an interim report, which quickly pulled together a lot of information that had been collected on the subject by many, many researchers.
