The Precision Problem in Conservation and Restoration [PDF]
Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2016 Within the varied contexts of environmental policy, conservation of imperilled species populations, and restoration of damaged habitats, an emphasis on idealized optimal conditions has led to increasingly specific targets for management. Overly-precise conservation targets can reduce habitat variability at multiple scales, with unintended consequences ...
