Effectiveness of terrestrial protected areas in reducing habitat loss and population declines (2013, background): “Similarly, more recent efforts are underway to collate data on PA management (Leverington et al., 2010) which will aid further analyses of PA effectiveness.”
Examining protected area effectiveness in Sumatra: importance of regulations governing unprotected lands (2012, background): “Our findings corroborate evidence from throughout the tropics that suggests deforestation persists within protected areas when strong socioeconomic drivers of deforestation are coupled with insufficient management resources (van Schaik et al. 1997; Brandon et al. 1998; Curran et al. 2004; Naughton-T”
Species richness as criterion for global conservation area placement leads to large losses in coverage of biodiversity (2017, background): “How effective a protected area is can also be evaluated with metrics related to the social benefit, such as protection of cultural values, socioeconomic impacts and effectiveness of the management in protected areas (Eklund & Cabeza, 2016; Leverington et al., 2010).”
