SCALES goes global in addressing critical issues in nature conservation
Date:12/6/2012

and an array of web-based tools that bridge this gap and reduce the risks of errors when moving from local to large-scale studies and conservation practices both in EU and Asia. The tools allow planners to make the collection and analysis of monitoring data more efficient and to identify the national responsibilities of the different countries for the conservation of species, considering biogeographical and global scales".

The cooperation in studying the problem of scale in ecological research and nature conservation will result in proposing a set of best-practice recommendations and novel approaches with applicability under various environmental and societal conditions. Connectivity between remnants of natural habitats must be more effectively included in policy and planning, in order to allow species to survive through global change: if natural habitats remain so fragmented, many species simply will not be able to alter their distributions with changing environment.

The accumulated conservation practices and recommendations will be summarized in a SCALES Tool, a web-based interactive platform that will facilitate planning and decision-making. The key recommendations will also be summarized in a concise policy brief that will be translated and distributed in several European languages, as well as in Chinese and Japanese.
