Capturing biodiversity: selecting priority areas for conservation using different criteria (2005, methodology): “…minimum set of areas that represent all species in occurrence locations (Williams 1998; Cabeza and Moilanen 2001), or, recently, on finding appropriate areas that maximise probabilities of species persistence (Rodrigues et al. 2000; Williams and Araujo 2000; Araujo et al. 2002; Bonn et al. 2002).”
Energy, species richness, and human population size: conservation implications at a national scale (2003, background): “…for the long-term survival of species, reserve networks must be selected in ways that not only ensure species representation, but also their long-term persistence (Rodrigues et al. 2000b, c), and this is likely to be particularly true under scenarios of climate change (see Erasmus et al. 2002).”
Planning for Climate Change: Identifying Minimum‐Dispersal Corridors for the Cape Proteaceae (2005, methodology): “Heuristic algorithms such as this do not guarantee truly optimal Conservation Biology Volume 19, No. 4, August 2005 results (e.g., Csuti et al. 1997; Rodrigues et al. 2000).”
Maximising phylogenetic diversity in the selection of networks of conservation areas (2002, background): “Pressey et al., 1996, 1997; Csuti et al., 1997; Howard et al., 1998; Williams, 1998; Polasky et al., 2001), these heuristic approaches do not necessarily provide solutions which are optimal or only slightly sub-optimal (see also Rodrigues et al., 2000b ).”
Connectivity in priority area selection for conservation (2005, background): “However, in several priority area selection problems, it may be desirable to distinguish between different networks with the same number of sites [ 33 ], for example those of differing total area (where sites vary in size) or monetary value.”
