An assessment of the state of conservation planning in Europe
Jung, Martin; Alagador, Diogo; Chapman, Melissa; Hermoso, Virgilio; Kujala, Heini; O'Connor, Louise; Schinegger, Rafaela; Verburg, PeterExpanding and managing current habitat and species protection measures is at the heart of the European biodiversity strategy. A structured approach is needed to gain insights into such issues is systematic conservation planning, which uses techniques from decision theory to identify places and actions that contribute most effectively to policy objectives given a set of constraints. Yet culturally and historical...
