Core principles for successfully implementing and upscaling Nature-based Solutions (2019, background): “This places NbS firmly away from mainstream biodiversity conservation approaches that predominantly focus on species or ecosystem conservation (Mace, 2014) and emphasizes its role as a tool for sustainable development based on healthy ecosystems, rather than being concerned with conservation for…”
Changing trends and persisting biases in three decades of conservation science (2017, background): “From its inception it has undergone changes in the framing of its goals and approaches (Kareiva and Marvier, 2012; Mace, 2014), but the overall purpose of increasing our understanding of what threatens biodiversity, and what actions and policies are needed to preserve it, has remained unchanged.”
Two roles for ecological surrogacy: Indicator surrogates and management surrogates (2016, background): “In short, disagreements 266 over the utility of surrogates may reflect deeper arguments about the role of scientific 267 information in conservation practice (Mace 2014).”
Conservation technology: The next generation (2018, background): “However, the field of conservation biology has grown through several paradigm shifts in the last few decades and the current prevailing approach to conservation is interdisciplinary at its core (Mace, 2014).”
Advances in restoration ecology: rising to the challenges of the coming decades (2015, background): “The switch from single to multiple goals parallels changing concepts of the relationship(s) among conservation, nature and people over the last century (Mace 2014).”
African community-based conservation: a systematic review of social and ecological outcomes (2018, background): “A key assumption is that socioeconomic incentives for participation in CBC allow local populations to maintain biodiversity, increase their socioeconomic status, and support economic development more generally (Andersson and Ostrom 2008, Taylor 2009, Dougill et al. 2012, Mace 2014).”
Pervasive human-driven decline of life on Earth points to the need for transformative change (2019, neutral): “…progress to 35 SDG targets that could be quantitatively assessed — on poverty, hunger, health, water, cities, climate, and biodiversity (SDGs 1, 2, 3, 6, 11, 13, 14, and 15 , respectively) — are being undermined by current trends in aspects of nature and its contributions to people relevant to…”
Agroforestry for sustainable landscape management (2020, background): “Biodiversity and ecosystem conservation strategies are also in urgent need of transformation, embedding them more deliberately into increasingly production-oriented landscapes and considering human well-being in a more inclusive sense than in the past (Mace 2014; Palomo et al.”
Does the biogeographic origin of species matter? Ecological effects of native and non‐native species and the use of origin to guide management (2016, background): “Acknowledgement of profound human alteration of ecosystems (Ellis et al. 2010) and changing conservation priorities (Hobbs, Higgs & Harris 2009; Mace 2014) has led some to question the utility of management based on the biogeographic origin of species (Davis et al. 2011) and the field of invasion…”
Ecology in an anthropogenic biosphere (2015, background): “Individual humans act intentionally, but they do so within their social contexts and depend on cultural values, perceptions, and actions (Dyball and Newell 2014, Ives and Kendal 2014, Mace 2014, Medin and Bang 2014).”
Biodiversity-rich European grasslands: Ancient, forgotten ecosystems (2018, background): “…and open canopy woodlands covered extensive areas in Central Eastern Europe 87 during the Pleistocene (i.e., the past 2 million years) when cold and dry climate conditions 88 prevailed (Kuneš et al., 2008; Ellenberg and Leuschner, 2010; Feurdean et al., 2014; 89 Magyari et al., 2014).”
Getting the message right on nature‐based solutions to climate change (2021, neutral): “…emerged from the major paradigm shift that took place in the late 2000s, that involved a move away from conserv - ing nature for its own sake to conserving nature for people's sake, and from ‘regarding people as passive beneficiaries of nature to active protectors and restorers’ (Mace, 2014).”
