9870232 Sterling (NOTE: Collaborative - abstract identical to Harder, 9870231) The Government of Viet Nam hopes to substantially increase the size of their protected area system by the year 2005. As they continue to enter the market economy, inevitable conflicts arise between use and conservation of natural resources. For this reason, the Center for Biodiversity and Conservation at the American Museum of Natural History and the Missouri Botanical Garden have joined with the Institute of Ecology and Biological Resources and the Viet Nam National University in Ha Noi to to develop the knowledge and expertise necessary to protect Viet Nam's most important and endangered ecosystems. Our project aims to conduct inventories of plants and little-known animals in key ecosystems in order to assess their importance for conservation. In these same key areas, we will study population growth, cultural practices as they impinge on biological resources, and land use to predict how and when resource use will impact the areas in the future. We will then formulate recommendations to the government regarding conservation measures for the key areas. As part of this program, we will also initiate joint training, education and institutional development programs to increase the capacity within Viet Nam to pursue such studies in the future.

（注：协作-与Harder相同的摘要，9870231）越南政府希望到2005年大幅度增加其保护区系统的规模。随着他们继续进入市场经济，自然资源的利用与保护之间不可避免地产生了冲突。为此，美国自然历史博物馆的生物多样性和保护中心和密苏里植物园与生态和生物资源研究所以及位于河内的越南国立大学合作，开发必要的知识和专业知识，以保护越南最重要和最濒危的生态系统。我们的项目旨在对关键生态系统中的植物和鲜为人知的动物进行清查，以评估它们对保护的重要性。在这些相同的关键地区，我们将研究人口增长、文化习俗对生物资源的影响，以及土地利用，以预测未来资源利用将如何以及何时影响这些地区。然后，我们会就重点地区的保育措施向政府提出建议。作为该计划的一部分，我们还将启动联合培训、教育和机构发展计划，以提高越南未来进行此类研究的能力。
