Journal ArticleDOI
A taxonomy and treatment of uncertainty for ecology and conservation biology
TL;DR: A classification of sources of uncertainty under the two main categories: epistemic uncertainty and linguistic uncertainty (uncertainty in language) is provided and how each impacts on applications in ecology and conservation biology is demonstrated.
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
Guiding ecological principles for marine spatial planning

Emmett Duffy,Sally D. Hacker,Karen L. McLeod,Stephen R. Palumbi,Charles H. Peterson,Helen M. Regan,Mary Ruckelshaus,Paul A. Sandifer,Robert S. Steneck +20 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors identify ecological principles for MSP based on a synthesis of previously suggested and/or operationalized principles, along with recommendations generated by a group of twenty ecologists and marine scientists with diverse backgrounds and perspectives on MSP.
Journal ArticleDOI
Robust decision‐making under severe uncertainty for conservation management
Helen M. Regan,Yakov Ben-Haim,Bill Langford,William G. Wilson,Per Lundberg,Sandy J. Andelman,Mark A. Burgman +6 more
TL;DR: It is shown that different management decisions may result when uncertainty in utilities and probabilities are considered in decision-making problems and the importance of a full assessment of uncertainty in conservation management decisions is highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI
Global change and terrestrial plant community dynamics
TL;DR: A framework for detecting vegetation changes and attributing them to global change drivers that incorporates multiple lines of evidence from spatially extensive monitoring networks, distributed experiments, remotely sensed data, and historical records is presented.
