Systematic conservation planning: past, present and future
3 What are the limitations and strengths of using
targets for achieving persistence in a conservation
plan?
4 What are the respective strengths and weaknesses of
using species - based surrogates versus environmental -
based surrogates when developing a systematic conservation plan?
5 What is the difference between conducting a
minimum set problem as opposed to a maximum
coverage problem when undertaking a systematic
planning process? Give some examples of when each
type of problem should be applied.
6 Are the key principles of systematic conservation
relevant to both marine and terrestrial environments?
What differences are there between how they are interpreted and the data used to achieve them in each of
these environments?
7 Why is it important to ensure that all stakeholders
participate in the planning process? How can planners
ensure that stakeholders participate in the conduct of
the systematic conservation plan?
