Data Bases
A number of data
bases are administered by the Section of Conservation Biology in
support of conservation programmes and projects. Some of them were
created as part of those programmes, others were initiated by the
Royal Belgian Institute in the course of other research activities and
are now maintained by the Section. All may be consulted by the
interested public. They will progressively be made available on-line
in complete form. As a first step, summaries of elaborated data or
extracts of the primary contents are offered as described below. All
texts included are scientific working documents, presented in the
language they were originally prepared.
