Systematic conservation planning (SCP) is an operational and scientific framework that assists in deciding where, how and when to implement conservation intervention, given known constraints and preferential weights. Studies using SCP approaches have proliferated due to their immediate relevance for applied conservation. For example, they can help...
Designing effective conservation strategies requires deciding not only where to locate conservation actions (i.e. which territorial units should be priortized), but also which type actions should be deployed. For most of conservation planning contexts, deciding where and what to do usually yields a complex and computationally challenging decision‐m...
Planning for management actions that address threats to biodiversity is important for securing its long term persistence. However, systematic conservation planning (SCP) has traditionally overlooked this aspect and just focused on identifying priority areas without any recommendation on actions needed. This paper develops a mixed integer mathematic...

We live in an era where the magnitude of environmental challenges
is unprecedented. Biodiversity loss, habitat degradation, and climate
change are interrelated issues that require a comprehensive
and multifaceted approach. Conservation planning, a critical component
in addressing these challenges, has therefore evolved into a
complex task. It requi...
Traditionally, most of the prioritization models used by researchers and practitioners, rely on spatially dichotomous settings for threats, for species and for actions' benefit; i.e., threats and species are present with equal intensity in some territorial units (while in the other units are not present at all), and actions have impact only on thos...
Optimization methods are routinely used for landscape‐level conservation planning, but still underused in supporting species recovery programs. A possible barrier is the difficulty in representing and optimizing complex multidimensional problems: for example, many species recovery programs require management at the population level, but also alloca...
The last report on the State of the Nature in the European Union (EU), a periodic monitoring exercise at continental scale, shows that biodiversity continues to decline, despite the efforts done in the last decades. Urgent action is, therefore, needed to reverse this trend. Effective conservation must rely on careful planning and strategic investme...
The design of conservation management plans is a crucial task for ensuring the preservation of ecosystems. A conservation plan is typically embodied by two types of decisions: in which areas of a given territory it will be implemented, and how actions against threats will be deployed across these areas. These decisions are usually guided by the res...
