Center for Applied Biodiversity Science

摘要

The Center for Applied Biodiversity Science (CABS) is an institute designed to acquire knowledge most relevant to the assessment of endangered ecosystems and the unique species they contain, and to advise the conservation community on priorities this knowledge implies. Its mission also includes developing methods by which the goals of conservation can be more effectively met. CABS has an in-house function: to provide day-to-day scientific guidance for the programs of it parental organization, Conservation International, which is unusually practical and field-based in its orientation. It also aims to serve the broader global conservation community as an easily accessible research center and clearing house of information.
