... planning. Results suggest that despite distinct differences in the ecology of marine and terrestrial systems, many of the conservation concepts applied in terrestrial systems are relevant and readily transferable to marine systems. Concern that marine systems may be too open and variable to support area...

... Some form of land classification is essential for the conservation of fauna, as a surrogate for detailed survey data and as a framework for the spatial extension of survey results from sampled sites. Recent developments in systematic reserve selection have enabled us to design reserve systems...

... and other specialised species disadvantaged by disturbances such as intensive logging and frequent fire. Territories of these large owls form a pattern that provides a natural planning template ideal for mapbased reserve selection aimed at maximising biodiversity conservation in the forests and woodlands...

... strategies to limit conflict with neighbours. This paper documents the conservation status of Grey-headed Flying-fox camps located east of the escarpment in NSW and explores the potential to use existing planning instruments to 1) protect roost vegetation from clearing and 2) limit conflict with humans...

... to be adequate surrogates for conservation planning. These laments have not diminished in recent years, despite the release of the National Strategy for the Conservation of Australia’s Biological Diversity. Our analysis suggests that the Strategy’s commitments to taxonomic knowledge, and raising understanding...

..., recent developments and proposes a set of critical questions for each of eight sequential framework components. Use of the framework will help ensure that invertebrate data and the recommendations that result from the analysis of those data are useful for conservation planning and resource management...

... conservation planning. ...

... Many non-marine invertebrates are inherently vulnerable because they have very small ranges. Nevertheless, narrow range taxa are generally not being considered in conservation planning because of a lack of information regarding their taxonomy and distribution. Most of the existing information...

... comprehensive spatial information on fauna distributions in the form of quantitative habitat models, in applying a rigorous method to set fauna reservation targets, and in employing recognised conservation planning software in reserve selection with fauna as one of the key parameters that determined reserve...

... In Australia, invasive terrestrial pest species have been implicated in the decline of a number of threatened species. Under the NSW Threatened Species Conservation Act 1995 , pest threats can be listed as Key Threatening Processes which require the preparation of Threat Abatement Plans...
