China's Low‐Carbon Energy Transition Over the Past Two Decades: Experiences and Implications

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
China's low‐carbon energy transition features a brief decline and subsequent rebound in coal consumption, alongside the rapid expansion of renewable energy. This study develops a stage‐based analytical framework to explain this evolution from the perspectives of economic development, energy security, and environmental sustainability, revealing how ...

Measuring and Incorporating Vulnerability into Conservation Planning

Environmental Management, 2005
Conservation planning is the process of locating and designing conservation areas to promote the persistence of biodiversity in situ. To do this, conservation areas must be able to mitigate at least some of the proximate threats to biodiversity. Information on threatening processes and the relative vulnerability of areas and natural features to these ...

Conservation Planning as a Transdisciplinary Process

Conservation Biology, 2010
Abstract:  Despite substantial growth in the field of conservation planning, the speed and success with which conservation plans are converted into conservation action remains limited. This gap between science and action extends beyond conservation planning into many other applied sciences and has been linked to

Biodiversity Conservation in Local Planning

Conservation Biology, 2009
Abstract:  Local land‐use policy is increasingly being recognized as fundamental to biodiversity conservation in the United States. Many planners and conservation scientists have called for broader use of planning and regulatory tools to support the conservation of biodiversity at local scales.

Conservation planning in a changing world

Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2007
Conservation planning is the process of locating, configuring, implementing and maintaining areas that are managed to promote the persistence of biodiversity and other natural values. Conservation planning is inherently spatial. The science behind it has solved important spatial problems and increasingly influenced practice.

Building robust conservation plans

Conservation Biology, 2014
Abstract Systematic conservation planning optimizes trade‐offs between biodiversity conservation and human activities by accounting for socioeconomic costs while aiming to achieve prescribed conservation objectives. However, the most cost‐efficient conservation plan can be very dissimilar to any other plan achieving the set of ...

Systematic Conservation Planning with Marxan

2017
Conservation planning is the science of choosing which actions to take where for the purpose of conserving biodiversity. Creating a system of protected areas is the most common form of systematic conservation planning. Hence, we will focus on the process of protected area selection in this chapter.

Reorienting Systematic Conservation Assessment for Effective Conservation Planning

Conservation Biology, 2011
Abstract:  Systematic conservation assessment (an information‐gathering and prioritization process used to select the spatial foci of conservation initiatives) is often considered vital to conservation‐planning efforts, yet published assessments have rarely resulted in conservation action.

Conservation Planning when Costs Are Uncertain

Conservation Biology, 2010
Abstract:  Spatially explicit information on the financial costs of conservation actions can improve the ability of conservation planning to achieve ecological and economic objectives, but the magnitude of this improvement may depend on the accuracy of the cost estimates .

Conservation Planning with Multiple Organizations and Objectives

Conservation Biology, 2010
Abstract:  There has been a dramatic increase in the number of conservation organizations worldwide. It is now common for multiple organizations to operate in the same landscape in pursuit of different conservation goals.
