Core concepts of spatial prioritisation in systematic conservation planning
Systematic conservation planning (SCP) is a field of conservation biology concerned with
delivering on‐the‐ground actions that achieve conservation goals. It describes a set of …

The spatial scaling of beta diversity
Beta diversity is an important concept used to describe turnover in species composition
across a wide range of spatial and temporal scales, and it underpins much of conservation …

Conservation planning under climate change: Toward accounting for uncertainty in predicted species distributions to increase confidence in conservation investments …
Climate warming challenges our approach to building systems of protected areas because it
is likely to drive accelerating shifts in species distributions, and the projections of those …

Using multi-scale modelling to predict habitat suitability for species of conservation concern: the grey long-eared bat as a case study
Although spatial scale is important for understanding ecological processes and guiding
conservation planning, studies combining a range of scales are rare. Habitat suitability …

Understanding (insect) species distributions across spatial scales
There is little doubt that multiple factors, operating across a hierarchy of spatial and temporal
scales, shape species distributions (Levin 1992). However, while variation in the pattern and …

A guide to multi-objective optimization for ecological problems with an application to cackling goose management
Choices in ecological research and management are the result of balancing multiple, often
competing, objectives. Multi-objective optimization (MOO) is a formal decision-theoretic …
