Journal ArticleDOI
Predicting extinction risks under climate change: coupling stochastic population models with dynamic bioclimatic habitat models.
David A. Keith,H. Resit Akçakaya,Wilfried Thuiller,Guy F. Midgley,Richard G. Pearson,Steven J. Phillips,Helen M. Regan,Miguel B. Araújo,Tony Rebelo +8 more
TL;DR: A novel mechanistic approach allows more complete and direct appraisal of future biotic responses than do static bioclimatic habitat modelling approaches, and will ultimately support development of more effective conservation strategies to mitigate biodiversity losses due to climate change.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plant functional traits in relation to fire in crown-fire ecosystems
TL;DR: It is predicted that not all resprouters respond in a similar way everywhere because the associated plant traits of resprouter species vary in different places, and attempts to generalize predictions on the basis of the resprouting capacity may have limited power at a global scale.
Journal ArticleDOI
Scientific foundations for an IUCN Red List of ecosystems.
David A. Keith,David A. Keith,Jon Paul Rodríguez,Kathryn M. Rodríguez-Clark,Emily Nicholson,Kaisu Aapala,Alfonso Alonso,Marianne Asmüssen,Marianne Asmüssen,Steven P. Bachman,Alberto Basset,Edmund G. C. Barrow,John Benson,Melanie J. Bishop,Ronald Bonifacio,Thomas M. Brooks,Thomas M. Brooks,Mark A. Burgman,Patrick J. Comer,Francisco A. Comín,Franz Essl,Franz Essl,Don Faber-Langendoen,Peter G. Fairweather,Robert J. Holdaway,Michael Jennings,Richard T. Kingsford,Rebecca E. Lester,Ralph Charles Mac Nally,Michael A. McCarthy,Justin Moat,María A. Oliveira-Miranda,Phil Pisanu,Brigitte Poulin,Tracey J. Regan,Uwe Riecken,Mark Spalding,Sergio Zambrano-Martínez +37 more
TL;DR: A new conceptual model for ecosystem risk assessment founded on a synthesis of relevant ecological theories is presented, providing a consistent, practical and theoretically grounded framework for establishing a systematic Red List of the world’s ecosystems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Limits to the use of threatened species lists
Hugh P. Possingham,Sandy J. Andelman,Mark A. Burgman,Rodrigo A. Medellín,Larry L. Master,David A. Keith +5 more
TL;DR: This work discusses why threatened species lists are commonly used, and why, if and how they should be used to achieve these purposes; and why some of them perform poorly.
Journal ArticleDOI
Faustian bargains? Restoration realities in the context of biodiversity offset policies
Martine Maron,Richard J. Hobbs,Atte Moilanen,Jeffrey W. Matthews,Kimberly Christie,Toby A. Gardner,David A. Keith,David B. Lindenmayer,Clive McAlpine +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examine the effectiveness of restoration as an approach for offsetting biodiversity loss, and conclude that many of the expectations set by current offset policy for ecological restoration remain unsupported by evidence.
