Speed-accuracy tradeoffs in animal decision making.
The traditional emphasis when measuring performance in animal cognition has been overwhelmingly on accuracy, independent of decision time. However, more recently, it has become clear that tradeoffs exist between decision speed and accuracy in many ecologically relevant tasks, for example, prey and predator detection and identification; pollinators choosing between flower species; and spatial ex...
متن کاملConservation decision-making in large state spaces
For metapopulation management problems with small state spaces, it is typically possible to model the problem as a Markov decision process (MDP), and find an optimal control policy using stochastic dynamic programming (SDP). SDP is an iterative procedure that seeks to optimise a value function at each timestep by trying each of the actions defined in the MDP. Although SDP gives the optimal solu...
متن کاملIncorporating ecological functions in conservation decision making
Systematic conservation planning has become a standard approach globally, but prioritization of conservation efforts hardly considers species traits in decision making. This can be important for species persistence and thus adequacy of the conservation plan. Here, we developed and validated a novel approach of incorporating trophic information into a systematic conservation planning framework. ...
متن کاملIs conservation triage just smart decision making?
Conservation efforts and emergency medicine face comparable problems: how to use scarce resources wisely to conserve valuable assets. In both fields, the process of prioritising actions is known as triage. Although often used implicitly by conservation managers, scientists and policymakers, triage has been misinterpreted as the process of simply deciding which assets (e.g. species, habitats) wi...
متن کاملDecision-making in Local Forest Management: Pluralism Equity and Consensus
This paper first addresses property regimes and multiple interests and attempts to demonstrate that multiple interests in forest management are not the exception but the rule. It then discusses simple decision-making criteria for forest management and identifies two major (but not necessarily exclusive) scenarios of decision-making-hierarchical and consensual. These are summarised briefly and s...
