Patterns of protection and threats along productivity gradients in Canada

2011-12-01

Abstract excerpt

Productivity is an important driver of broad-scale diversity gradients and community composition. Surprisingly, it is rarely used as a biodiversity proxy in protected area network assessments. In this research, we evaluate if biases exist in the locations of Canadaâs protected areas with respect to productivity and assess the distribution of anthropogenic threats to protection along productivity and topographic...
