有效的保护规划需要从一系列土地利用的精心设计的研究中获得信息,从荒地到高度改造的生产景观和大城市,目前缺乏有关人类住区的信息,尽管这是土地利用变化的主要来源,对生物多样性有严重影响。在最近几卷的《保护生物学》中,只有不到6%的论文描述了在城市、郊区或远郊地区进行的工作,或明确考虑人类住区的研究。然而,城市化正在世界各地许多生物多样性热点地区发生,并已被确定为主要原因。导致许多受威胁和濒危物种的减少。郊区和远郊的增长艺术,影响生物多样性,在许多地方,曾经被认为太遥远,无法吸引这样的发展水平,保护生物学家必须解决人类住区的问题,以提高本土物种的未保留土地的栖息地价值,增加景观连接,保护区之间,并减轻来自邻近土地的石油储备的不利影响。保护和恢复人口稠密地区的原生生境也具有社会和教育价值。因此,我们建议在保护生物学中采取更平衡的方法,通过更多地关注人们生活和工作的地区来解决人类土地使用的影响。
Effective conservation planning requires information from well-designed studies across a spectrum of land uses, ranging from wildlands to highly, modified production landscapes and large cities, There is currently, a lack of such information about human settlement, even though this is it major source of land-use change with serious implications for biodiversity. Fewer than 6% of the papers in recent volumes of Conservation Biology described work conducted in urban, suburban, or exurban areas or studies In which human settlement was considered explicitly For a variety of reasons, conservation bets tended to focus oil lands with a relatively, small human presence, often dominated by resource extraction and agriculture. Urbanization is occurring in numerous biodiversity, hotspots worldwide, however, and has been identified as a primary. cause of declines in many, threatened and endangered species. Suburban and exurban growth art, affecting biodiversity, in many,places once thought of as too remote to attract such levels of development, Conservation biologists must address the issue of human settlement to enhance the habitat value of unreserved lands for native species, to increase landscape connectivity, between reserves, and to mitigate adverse influences oil reserves from adjacent lands. Conservation and restoration of native habitats in densely, settled areas also have social and educational value. We therefore suggest a more balanced approach in conservation biology to addressing the effects of human land use through increased attention to areas where people live and work.
