USkahn-sur-VAY-shuhnz/ˌkɑnsɚˈveɪʃənz/UKkon-suh-VAY-shuhnz/ˌkɒnsəˈveɪʃənz/
- 1Plural of conservation. Rare, since conservation is usually uncountable.
Note
A plural that turns up when conservation is being counted rather than named as a whole. It fits separate efforts or projects, and it fits science: physicists speak of the conservations of energy, momentum and charge, and biologists of sequence conservations shared by species descended from a common ancestor. For the general idea of protecting nature or heritage, the singular mass noun is the natural choice: conservation work, not conservations work.
