A review of climate-change adaptation strategies for wildlife management and biodiversity conservation.

摘要: The scientific literature contains numerous descriptions of observed and potential effects global climate change on species ecosystems. In response to anticipated change, conservation organizations government agencies are developing "adaptation strategies" facilitate the adjustment human society ecological systems altered regimes. We reviewed climate-change adaptation plans that have been developed in United States, Canada, England, Mexico, South Africa found 16 general strategies relate directly biological diversity. These can be grouped into four broad categories: land water protection management; direct monitoring planning; law policy. Tools for implementing these similar or identical those already use by conservationists worldwide (land conservation, restoration, agrienvironment schemes, translocation, captive propagation, monitoring, natural resource planning, legislation/regulation). Although our review indicates managers many tools used address effects, will likely need apply novel innovative ways meet unprecedented challenges posed change.
