Home›Protected Areas›Establishment Era›By Year›1987Browse By1987This dimension groups protected areas by the era in which each one was established. Protection itself has expanded enormously over time, since Wikipedia notes that "as of 2016, there are over 161,000 protected areas representing about 17 percent of the world's land surface area (excluding Antarctica)," a total built up designation by designation across more than a century. Browsing by establishment era groups areas set aside during the same wave of conservation.Facts1987ConnectionsSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonClassification AuthorityWell-attestedIUCN Protected Area Management Categories 11987Filter Results9 entriesIUCN CategoryAllHabitat and Species Management Areas (World) (3)National Parks of Asia (4)National Parks of North America (1)Protected Areas with Sustainable Use of Natural Resources (World) (1)National Designation TypeAllFaunal Reserve (1)Marine Park (1)Marine Reserve (1)National Park (5)Private Preserve (1)ContinentAllAfrica (1)Asia (4)Australia (1)North America (3)CountryAllBelize (1)Cameroon (1)Costa Rica (1)India (3)Japan (1)United States (1)Area BandAll18.000000 (1)226.000000 (1)268.610000 (1)312.000000 (1)600.320000 (1)675.000000 (1)1345.582700 (1)2435.000000 (1)5260.000000 (1)Managing AuthorityAllHol Chan Marine Reserve Trust Fund Committee (1)National Park Service (1)Parks Australia (1)Principal Chief Conservator of Forests (Wildlife) (1)Governance TypeAllGovernance by Government (3)Private Governance (2)Marine or TerrestrialAllMarine (2)Terrestrial (6)International DesignationAllRamsar Site (Wetland of International Importance) (1)UNESCO Biosphere Reserve (1)UNESCO World Heritage Site (3)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 9Anshi National Park1987Children's Eternal Rainforest1987Dja Faunal Reserve1987Great Basin National Park1987Hol Chan Marine Reserve1987Kudremukh National Park1987Kushiro-Shitsugen National Park1987Ningaloo Marine Park1987Pin Valley National Park1987ConnectionsShowing the first 400 of 828 connections.Sources1.
