Freshwater Protected Areas: Strategies for Conservation (2002, background): “Similarly, the importance of natural-flow maintenance could be recognized in considering the connectivity of habitats, whether by oceanic currents in marine habitats or through terrestrial corridors linking larger protected areas on land (Poiani et al. 2000).”
Functional conservation units for the endangered Alcon Blue butterfly Maculinea alcon in Belgium (Lepidoptera: Lycaenidae) (2004, background): “In an era where habitat fragmentation and habitat loss are causing declines and local extinctions of many species, restoring local or regional habitat networks for target species has become an important conservation strategy throughout the world (e.g., Amato et al., 1995; Cowley et al., 2000; Poiani”
Tropical Forest Management and Conservation of Biodiversity: an Overview (2001, background): “Methods for integrating conservation functions at different geographical scales were reviewed recently by Poiani et al. (2000).”
Landscapes to Riverscapes: Bridging the Gap between Research and Conservation of Stream Fishes (2002, background): “Therefore, we argue that managers must become aware of potential unintended consequences of habitat degradation and loss of connectivity (Poiani et al. 2000) for lotic fish populations, which can be caused by fish movement from many different locations throughout the watershed to intercept these…”
Habitat quality and biodiversity indicator performances of a threatened butterfly versus a multispecies group for wet heathlands in Belgium (2005, methodology): “The majority of studies dealing with indicator species and with cross-taxa comparisons of species richness focus on reserve (network) selection, often at a rather coarse scale (e.g., Poiani et al., 2000; van Jaarsveld et al., 1998).”
• Protected Areas in Chile: History, Current Status, and Challenges (2002, background): “An intensive scientific and political dialogue has surrounded the search for the best or optimal design of reserve systems for biological conservation and the definition of conservation targets (e.g., Kunin 1997, Soulé and Sanjayan 1998, Schwartz 1999, Poiani et al. 2000).”
The potential ecological costs and cobenefits of REDD: a critical review and case study from the Amazon region (2009, result): “These results also provide further support to a shift in conservation theory that posits that landscapelevel conservation approaches are likely to secure ecosystem integrity better than those focused solely on protected or ‘core’ areas (Pickett et al., 1992; Poiani et al., 2000).”
Are We Conserving What We Say We Are? Measuring Ecological Integrity within Protected Areas (2003, background): “…recommend the selection of ecological communities or systems at the outset as “coarse-filter” conservation targets (Noss and Cooperrider 1994, Poiani et al. 2000), followed by the selection of species with unique ecological requisites not captured in the conservation of the communities or…”
Review of impacts of the introduced house mouse on islands in the Southern Ocean: are mice equivalent to rats? (2009, background): “Island ecosystems are beguilingly simple, but should nevertheless be treated as a whole (Poiani et al. 2000; Zavaleta et al. 2001; Caut et al. 2008).”
Planning for Biodiversity Conservation: Putting Conservation Science into Practice (2002, background): “human-caused disturbances ( Poiani et al. 2000 ).”
