Pushing the limits in marine species distribution modelling: lessons from the land present challenges and opportunities (2011, methodology): “SDMs have been used in planning marine protected areas and designating essential fish habitats (Leathwick et al., 2008; Valavanis et al., 2008; Maxwell et al., 2009).”
Coexistence of mesopredators in an intact polar ocean ecosystem: The basis for defining a Ross Sea marine protected area (2012, methodology): “For these reasons, elucidating the patterns of cooccurrence of the Ross Sea mesopredator fauna within its relatively small confines and highly variable environmental conditions not only will offer ecological insights not possible elsewhere in the world ocean, where most top predators have been sever”
Informed opportunism for conservation planning in the Solomon Islands (2011, background): “…& Pressey 2000; Possingham et al. 2006), and the field’s literature routinely focuses on the “efficiency” of protected area solutions delivered by particular planning approaches (e.g., Cameron et al. 2008; Leathwick et al. 2008; Ban et al. 2009; Lourival et al. 2009; Wiersma & Nudds 2009).”
Spatial socioeconomic data as a cost in systematic marine conservation planning (2009, background): “Other reasons for using a uniform cost are that other aspects of the project were considering socioeconomics (Airamé et al. 2003) and that the planning exercise was intended for demonstration or academic purposes (Cook & Auster 2005; Stewart et al. 2007; Leathwick et al. 2008).”
Seascape ecology of coastal biogenic habitats: advances, gaps, and challenges (2011, background): “More recently, landscape ecology has been explicitly incorporated into coastal conservation strategies such as marine protected area (MPA) network design (Leslie 2005, Leathwick et al. 2008).”
Benthos distribution modelling and its relevance for marine ecosystem management (2015, background): “The most extended application of DM in marine systems most probably is in planning for MPAs and designating essential fish habitats (see examples in Leathwick et al., 2008; Valavanis et al., 2008; Maxwell et al., 2009).”
Comparison of five modelling techniques to predict the spatial distribution and abundance of seabirds (2012, methodology): “, 2005), which has been used successfully in large-scale marine applications (Leathwick et al., 2008).”
Predicting species distributions for conservation decisions (2013, background): “…in the few published applications of SDMs to conservation decision making (e.g. Brown et al. 2000; Sober on et al. 2001; Ferrier et al. 2002; Leathwick et al. 2008), the importance of their contribution to the decisionmaking process and implementation of actions is often unclear (but see…”
Optimizing resiliency of reserve networks to climate change: multispecies conservation planning in the Pacific Northwest, USA (2010, methodology): “…Change Biology, 16, 891–904 core-area ZONATION are described in Moilanen et al. (2005) and Moilanen (2007), and in the ZONATION user manual (Moilanen & Kujala, 2008); illustrative regionalscale examples of the use of core-area ZONATION include Leathwick et al. (2008) and Kremen et al. (2008).”
Methods and workflow for spatial conservation prioritization using Zonation (2013, methodology): “In amore general form, we are interested in the contrast between an ideal free solution and another solution that has some constraints, such as existing conservation areas (Leathwick et al., 2008; Moilanen, 2012).”
