Journal ArticleDOI
Integrating economic costs into conservation planning.
Robin Naidoo,Andrew Balmford,Paul J. Ferraro,Stephen Polasky,Taylor H. Ricketts,Mathieu Rouget +5 more
TL;DR: This work focuses on what costs are, why they are important to consider, how they can be quantified and the benefits of their inclusion in priority setting, and considers prospects for integrating them into conservation planning.
Journal ArticleDOI
Niche‐based modelling as a tool for predicting the risk of alien plant invasions at a global scale
Wilfried Thuiller,David M. Richardson,Petr Pyšek,Petr Pyšek,Guy F. Midgley,Greg Hughes,Mathieu Rouget +6 more
TL;DR: Cumulative probabilities of climatic suitability show that high-risk regions are spatially limited globally but that these closely match hotspots of plant biodiversity, emphasizing the pivotal role of climate in defining invasion potential.
Journal ArticleDOI
Preserving the evolutionary potential of floras in biodiversity hotspots
Félix Forest,Félix Forest,Richard Grenyer,Mathieu Rouget,T. Jonathan Davies,T. Jonathan Davies,Richard M. Cowling,Daniel P. Faith,Andrew Balmford,John C. Manning,Şerban Procheş,Michelle van der Bank,Gail Reeves,Terry A. Hedderson,Vincent Savolainen +14 more
TL;DR: This work shows taxon richness to be decoupled from PD, using a biome-wide phylogenetic analysis of the flora of an undisputed biodiversity hotspot—the Cape of South Africa and demonstrates that PD protection is the best strategy for preserving feature diversity in the Cape.
Journal ArticleDOI
Knowing But Not Doing: Selecting Priority Conservation Areas and the Research-Implementation Gap
Andrew T. Knight,Richard M. Cowling,Mathieu Rouget,Andrew Balmford,Amanda T. Lombard,Amanda T. Lombard,Bruce M. Campbell +6 more
TL;DR: A reevaluation of the conceptual and operational basis of conservation planning research is urgently required and the following actions are recommended for beginning a process for bridging the research-implementation gap in conservation planning.
Journal ArticleDOI
An operational model for mainstreaming ecosystem services for implementation
Richard M. Cowling,Benis N. Egoh,Andrew T. Knight,Patrick J. O’Farrell,Belinda Reyers,Mathieu Rouget,Dirk J. Roux,Adam Welz,Angelika Wilhelm-Rechman +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide a pragmatic operational model for achieving the safeguarding of ecosystem services, which comprises three phases: assessment, planning, and management, which are used to identify opportunities and constraints for implementation.
