The Importance of Biosphere Reserve In Nature Protection and the Situation In Turkey

Abstract

“Preservation” implies keeping things as they are, and “protection” implies keeping outside interference at bay. “Reservation” involving refuges, reserves and sanctuaries, aims to avoid use or exploitaion of an area and ‘zoning’ or ‘segregation’ seeks multipurpose use by careful management of resources. “Conservation” in its modern sense is a broader concept, comprehanding all of these limited approaches and more (Evans, 1997). According to another description, the concept of conservation is a set of precautions which are needed for the sustainability of life and are developed in order to prevent the extinction of future resources by determining optimum usage methods (Gul& Sahin, 2010).
