Conservation planning in a changing world. (2007, methodology): “Notably, conservation outcomes are poorer if expanding threats are ignored than when they inform decisions about scheduling [ 6 ,60].”
Economics and Land‐Use Change in Prioritizing Private Land Conservation (2005, methodology): “We developed parcel-level models of land-use change and easement values using the methods described above (Newburn et al. 2006).”
Core concepts of spatial prioritisation in systematic conservation planning (2012, background): “Combining these two concepts has been widely considered a feasible approach to conservation prioritisation – sites that need conservation action urgently are vulnerable and highly irreplaceable (Pressey & Taffs, 2001; Pressey et al., 2004; Linke et al., 2007).”
Synthesis of pattern and process in biodiversity conservation assessment: a flexible whole‐landscape modelling framework (2010, background): “This allows future habitat state to be modelled as a more complex function of interactions between current state, pressures, threats and proposed or implemented changes in land use or management, thereby addressing what Pressey et al. (2004) call habitat ‘retention’.”
Methods and workflow for spatial conservation prioritization using Zonation (2013, background): “Biodiversity could be considered from the perspective of representation in a reserve network or from the perspective of landscape-wide retention, which involves potential threats and opportunities both within reserves and the surrounding landscape (Pressey et al., 2004).”
Unprotecting the rare species: a niche‐based gap analysis for odonates in a core Cerrado area (2011, background): “A permanent conflict between the selection of areas for conservation and the use of new areas for economic development has set the tone for conservation proposals (Balmford et al., 2001; Chown et al., 2003; Pressey et al., 2004; Loyola et al., 2008); this conflict is probably more pronounced in deve”
Diminishing return on investment for biodiversity data in conservation planning (2008, methodology): “We evaluated the outcome of each land-use simulation with two metrics: representation and retention (Pressey et al. 2004).”
Measuring and Incorporating Vulnerability into Conservation Planning (2005, unknown): “This strategy can minimize the extent to which targets are compromised by threatening processes during the frequently protracted process of establishing conservation areas on the ground (Pressey and others 2004).”
Conservation planning and the IUCN Red List (2008, background): “Information on threats and on the vulnerability of areas and species to these threats helps inform temporal options for biodiversity conservation, improving strategies for ensuring long-term persistence (rather than simple short-term representation) of biodiversity (Pressey et al. 2004).”
