About the Book

Designing a Transactional Environmental Support System grew from the desire to allow citizens to exchange knowledge on local land and animals for the purpose of learning how to increase their sustainability in regards to biodiversity and livelihood. Transactional Environmental Support System Design: Global Solutions details the results of this project ranging from studies done in small, local communities to those done in much larger national settings. Survey results of government practices, availability of decision support software, and community responses to data recording are all highlighted in this emerging research. Additionally, the book goes on to emphasize the increasing potential for environmental decision support while directly addressing some of the challenges that must be overcome.

Robert Kenward grew up on a farm in southern England, where he gained an interest in nature leading to a zoology degree at Oxford University, then a doctorate on predation by raptors. That study and subsequent work in Sweden involved radio-tagging, leading to further work in Canada, Kazakhstan and the United Arab Emirates, with teaching in many other countries, and the founding of companies making equipment and software for animal tracking. Early papers on conservation by falconers resulted in engagement with conservation governance internationally, and to leaving a career in Centre for Ecology and Hydrology, as director for technology transfer, in order to work through IUCN on establishing better knowledge tools for managing natural resources. Becoming Science Supervisor for the TESS project was a further step along that road.
