- Additional information
- This method for assessing functional connectivity of protected areas (ProtConn) distinguishes extra-unit dispersal and corrects for geographic configuration, allowing its use for further global analysis (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.biocon.2017.12.020; https://doi.org/10.1016/j.biocon.2019.07.028). The method has impacted research on Spanish birds (https://doi.org/10.1111/2041-210X.12783), Iranian desert carnivores (https://doi.org/10.1111/ddi.12672), Thai and South American conservation planning (Suksawang, Herrera, Pereira-Garbero) and forest green infrastucture assessment (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.landusepol.2018.04.002). ProtConn is accepted by the international Biodiversity Indicators Partnership (https://www.bipnational.net/) as a current standard for Aichi Target 11 reporting to the UN Convention on Biological Diversity (e.g. Ireland’s Sixth National Report, section 3.6.16, https://www.cbd.int/doc/nr/nr-06/ie-nr-06-en.pdf), and will be embedded in the post-2020 reporting framework (http://www.oecd.org/environment/resources/biodiversity/Summary-Record-OECD-workshop-The-Post-2020-Biodiversity-Framework-targets-indicators-and-measurability-implications.pdf)
