Scoring can vary depending on:
• type • location • species• area...
Immediate, significant and lasting influence to biodiversity conservation
QUANTITATIVE APPROACH
Minimization of impacts
Connection of fragments
Biomes
Actions in Protected Areas
Creation/Maintenance of Protected Areas
- More restrictive management and greater potential of control
- Less restrictive management and lower potential of control
- Officially created areas
- Areas non-officially created
- Large and continuous areas
- Small and fragmented areas
- Reduced remaining areas and more fragile environments
- Less reduced remaining areas and less fragile environments
- Long, large connections with genetic flux
- Small and narrow connections
- Biodiversity monitoring
- Shift in production systems
- Control
- Administration
- Operationalization
- Research
- Biodiversity Monitoring
- Restoration
- Environmental control and sanitation
- External /strategic integration
