Spatial prioritization of conservation management effort

Optimization framework for spatial allocation of conservation management effort.

This package contains the data and R code underpinning the analysis presented in the following publication:

Cattarino, Hermoso, Carwardine, Adams, Kennard and Linke. In press. Information uncertainty influences conservation outcomes when prioritizing multi-action management efforts. Journal of Applied Ecology. doi:10.1111/1365-2664.13147

Please contact [e-mail] or pull a request on this github project if you have any queries.

Installation

install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("LorenzoCattarino/priorityeffort")

Description

The analysis directory contains the scripts for running the two prioritization experiments described in the article: Species targets are linearly scaled to each species' area of occupancy (Experiment 1) Species targets are fixed for all species and the actual target value is varied (Experiment 2)

The analysis directory contains also the scripts for post-processing the experiment results and generating the figures shown in the article and in the supporting information. Post-processing scripts assume that you had previosuly run the simulation experiments yourself, as experiments results have not been made available in this repository, due to file size limits.
