保护毗连地区往往会提高环境效益。然而，大多数保护工作是基于激励和自愿的，既不奖励土地所有者的邻接，也不选择基于邻接。因此，实现保守地块的最佳连续性是不可能的。使用实验室和人工场实验，本文评估了两种机制的背景下，反向拍卖实现最佳的邻接：网络奖金和空间定位。结果表明，空间定位单独改善了总体环境和社会福利的结果，而网络奖金单独导致更糟糕的结果。奖金效应和目标效应的交互作用是积极的。如果一个程序已经使用了一个有奖金的竞争性拍卖环境，增加空间目标可以减少福利损失。
Conserving contiguous areas often enhances environmental benefits. However, most conservation efforts are incentive-based and voluntary, and neither reward landowners for contiguity nor do they select based on contiguity. Thus, achieving optimal contiguity of conserved parcels is unlikely. Using lab and artefactual field experiments, this paper evaluates two mechanisms in the context of reverse auctions for achieving optimal contiguity: network bonuses and spatial targeting. Results suggest that spatial targeting alone improves the aggregate environmental and social welfare outcomes, while network bonuses alone result in worse outcomes. The interaction of the bonus effect and the targeting effect is positive. If a program was already using a competitive auction environment with bonuses, adding spatial targeting could reduce welfare loss.
