Simple connectivity measures in spatial ecology
Atte Moilanen,Marko Nieminen +1 more
TL;DR: Compared simple connectivity measures in their ability to predict colonization events in two large and good-quality empirical data sets are compared, it is concluded that the simplicity of a nearest neighbor measure is not an adequate compensation for poor performance.

Spatial conservation prioritization: Quantitative methods and computational tools
TL;DR: Spatial conservation prioritization addresses the question of how we should allocate conservation effort and funds in space and time as discussed by the authors. But adoption of these methods in "real-world" planning and implementation is still in its infancy, partly due to the difficulty of identifying which methods and tools are suited to specific planning problems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prioritizing multiple-use landscapes for conservation: methods for large multi-species planning problems.
TL;DR: This study develops efficient quantitative methods for identifying conservation core areas at large, even national or continental scales, applicable to both fragmented and natural landscape structures, and produce a hierarchical zonation of regional conservation priority.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metapopulation dynamics: effects of habitat quality and landscape structure
Atte Moilanen,Ilkka Hanski +1 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated how the effects of habitat quality and detailed landscape structure can be included in a spatially realistic metapopulation model, the incidence function model, and demonstrated that additional complexity beyond the results of habitat patch area and isolation does not necessarily improve the predictive power of a metapoulation model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Design of reserve networks and the persistence of biodiversity.
Mar Cabeza,Atte Moilanen +1 more
TL;DR: Results show that data quality, as well as the choice of surrogates for biodiversity, could be critical for successful reserve design, and the impact of computational site-selection tools in applied conservation planning has been minimal.
