Conservation network design for endemic cacti under taxonomic uncertainty
(Elsevier, 2014)
The utility of spatial conservation prioritization (SCP), could be limited by the biases produced by
taxonomic uncertainty and by the lack of an accepted taxonomic checklist for a diverse group of species.
Using information ...
Climate change and opposing spatial conservation priorities for anuran protection in the Brazilian hotspots
(Elsevier B.V., 2019-06-01)
In conservation biogeography, the process of spatial conservation prioritization (SCP) aims to select areas that meet biodiversity targets at a minimum set coverage. Here, we propose a SCP scheme for the highly endemic and ...
A multi-objective optimization approach associated to climate change analysis to improve Systematic Conservation Planning
(SpringerCham, 2015)
Biodiversity conservation has been since long an academic community concern, leading scientists to propose strategies to effectively meet conservation goals. In particular, Systematic Conservation Planning (SCP) aims to ...
Improving Potential Biodiversity and Human Footprint in Nothofagus Forests of Southern Patagonia through the Spatial Prioritization of their Conservation Values
(Springer, 2021)
The role of biodiversity in natural forests is critical as a regulator of ecosystem function, productivity, and provision of ecosystem services. The objective was to analyse the conservation value of Nothofagus forests in ...
Evaluating the impact of future actions in minimizing vegetation loss from land conversion in the Brazilian Cerrado under climate change
(Springer, 2020-04-01)
The global network of protected areas (PAs) is systematically biased towards remote and unproductive places. Consequently, the processes threatening biodiversity are not halted and conservation impact-defined as the ...
Improving the identification of priority areas for conserving neotropical biodiversity : assessing uncertainties in spatial conservation prioritization
(Pontificia Universidad Javeriana, 2020)
Overprediction of species distribution models in conservation planning: A still neglected issue with strong effects
(Elsevier, 2020-12)
Species distribution models (SDM) are increasingly used in conservation planning to identify priority areas for the establishment of protected areas. Nevertheless, the quality of SDM varies widely and may compromise the ...
Human activity and climate change as determinants of spatial prioritization for the conservation of globally threatened birds in the southern Neotropic (Santa Fe, Argentina)
(Springer, 2019-05)
Conservation area networks (CAN) must overlap spatial patterns of conservation priorities in order to ensure their persistence. Threatened species are among the least controversial biodiversity features taken into account ...
Identifying conservation priority areas for the Andean condor in southern South America
(Elsevier, 2020-03)
Mobile species face an array of human threats across political boundaries, and their protection relies on identifying and prioritizing areas for conservation. Large avian scavengers are one of the widest ranging and most ...
Rapid assessment of distribution of wildlife and human activities for prioritizing conservation actions in a Patagonian landscape
(Public Library of Science, 2015-06-10)
Large landscapes encompassing reserves and areas with other human uses are necessary for conservation of many species. Generating information for conservation planning over such landscapes may be expensive and time-consuming, ...
