To address the need for common guidelines regarding connected protected areas, Chapter 5 proposes ‘ecological corridors’ as a formal conservation designation, thereby recognising them as …

These Guidelines are based on the best available science and practice for maintaining, enhancing and restoring ecological connectivity among and between protected areas, other effective areas based …

Because estab-lishment of isolated marine reserves may not alone suffice for the conservation of biodiversity, identifying the level of connectivity between the areas is a critical aspect in network design.

The main objective of these Guidelines is to provide insight into the leading tools for conserving the physical links between protected and conserved areas, and areas outside their boundaries as part of …

This Guideline defines and describes ACCs. It is based on connectivity conservation research and practice pioneered by IUCN WCPA researchers, practitioners and many experts from other …

In this introductory chapter, we explore the concept of connectivity and review the recent history of connectivity research in the scientific literature. Then, we briefly overview the benefits and challenges …

Oct 17, 2019 · Wildlife Corridor Protection and implementing the Wildlife Corridors Conservation Act are crucial steps to promoting habitat connectivity and safeguarding America’s biodiversity

Connectivity conservation management is a strategic approach that helps to link habitats across whole landscapes, which can enable species and their ecosystems to move or adapt as conditions change. …

Connectivity conservation expands the traditional model of area-based conservation to recognise the important role of private lands, working lands and urban spaces in protecting biodiversity.

Here we present a process to guide map creation, from conceptualization through validation, that seeks to better consider the complex biological issues inherent to connectivity modeling.
