Journal ArticleDOI
Predicting species distributions for conservation decisions
Antoine Guisan,Reid Tingley,John B. Baumgartner,Ilona Naujokaitis-Lewis,Patricia Sutcliffe,Ayesha I. T. Tulloch,Tracey J. Regan,Lluís Brotons,Eve McDonald-Madden,Eve McDonald-Madden,Chrystal Mantyka-Pringle,Chrystal Mantyka-Pringle,Tara G. Martin,Tara G. Martin,Jonathan R. Rhodes,Ramona Maggini,Samantha A. Setterfield,Jane Elith,Mark W. Schwartz,Brendan A. Wintle,Olivier Broennimann,Mike P. Austin,Simon Ferrier,Michael R. Kearney,Hugh P. Possingham,Hugh P. Possingham,Yvonne M. Buckley,Yvonne M.

TL;DR: It is proposed that species distribution modellers should get involved in real decision-making processes that will benefit from their technical input and have the potential to better bridge theory and practice, and contribute to improve both scientific knowledge and conservation outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Framework for Debate of Assisted Migration in an Era of Climate Change
TL;DR: If circumventing climate-driven extinction is a conservation priority, then assisted migration must be considered a management option.
Journal ArticleDOI
Linking biodiversity to ecosystem function: implications for conservation ecology
Mark W. Schwartz,C. A. Brigham,Jason D. Hoeksema,Kelly G. Lyons,M. H. Mills,P. J. Van Mantgem +5 more
TL;DR: Little support is found for the hypothesis that there is a strong dependence of ecosystem function on the full complement of diversity within sites, and the conservation community should take a cautious view of endorsing this linkage as a model to promote conservation goals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Achieving Conservation Science that Bridges the Knowledge–Action Boundary
Carly N. Cook,Carly N. Cook,Michael B. Mascia,Mark W. Schwartz,Hugh P. Possingham,Richard A. Fuller +5 more
TL;DR: 4 institutional frameworks that can facilitate science that will inform management, including boundary organizations, research scientists embedded in resource management agencies, formal links between decision makers and scientists at research-focused institutions, and training programs for conservation professionals are highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI
The impacts of increasing drought on forest dynamics, structure, and biodiversity in the United States.
James S. Clark,Louis R. Iverson,Christopher W. Woodall,Craig D. Allen,David M. Bell,Don C. Bragg,Anthony W. D'Amato,Frank W. Davis,Michelle H. Hersh,Inés Ibáñez,Stephen T. Jackson,Stephen N. Matthews,Neil Pederson,Matthew P. Peters,Mark W. Schwartz,Kristen M. Waring,Niklaus E. Zimmermann +16 more
TL;DR: Insights from current understanding of drought impacts at stand-to-biogeographic scales are synthesized, including management options, and challenges to be addressed are identified, indicating that more complex models may provide limited guidance.
