Lack of South Caspian Habitat Conservation Network, A Serious Threat on Biodiversity
Iran, a 4-season land in the world, is located in semi-arid part of Asia. There are several geographical climates in this country, which are the main causes for the existence of diverse ecological conditions. In the north, where the Caspian Sea meets the land, there are three provinces. One of these, Guilan province, (the studied area) is located in the southwest of the Caspian with different g...
متن کاملIntegrating biological and social values when prioritizing places for biodiversity conservation.
The consideration of information on social values in conjunction with biological data is critical for achieving both socially acceptable and scientifically defensible conservation planning outcomes. However, the influence of social values on spatial conservation priorities has received limited attention and is poorly understood. We present an approach that incorporates quantitative data on soci...

متن کاملPrioritizing Populations for Conservation Using Phylogenetic Networks
In the face of inevitable future losses to biodiversity, ranking species by conservation priority seems more than prudent. Setting conservation priorities within species (i.e., at the population level) may be critical as species ranges become fragmented and connectivity declines. However, existing approaches to prioritization (e.g., scoring organisms by their expected genetic contribution) are ...
