Changing Socio-economic Conditions for Private Woodland Protection,d on ­setting-aside public lands from largely unpopulated ‘frontier’ regions, are becoming an increasingly limited option as populations grow, settlements spread, ­ownership patterns solidify, and land values rise.

Strong connections between terrestrial watersheds and receiving waters, and upstream and downstream linkages within river systems, make a large-scale ­perspective essential in conservation planning.

I review a number of efforts to institute ecoregional and trans-ecoregional conservation planning efforts focused on birds, including Partners in Flight, U.S. Shorebird Conservation Plan, Waterbird Conservation for the America

The Transboundary Nature of Seabird Ecology,d are long-lived species with low annual reproductive rates. Seabird breeding sites typically occur on islands or along coasts and as such are often at the boundaries of ecological or political zones. During the breeding season, seabirds cross a very distinct terrestrial/marine ecological boundary o

The Human Footprint is one such measure of transformation, integrating information on human access, settlement, transformation of land use/land cover, and development of energy infrastructure. We used this methodology to develop a fine-scale (90-m resolution) map of the de

These difficulties can be overcome with the use of computer programs that can handle large volumes of data and can identify sets of locations (called ‘solutions’) that achieve specified conservation goal
