How to prioritize species recovery after a megafire

Abstract: Due to climate change, megafires are increasingly common and have sudden, extensive impacts on many species over vast areas, leaving decision makers uncertain about how best to prioritize recovery. We devised a decision‐support framework to prioritize conservation actions to improve species outcomes immediately after a megafire. Complementary locations are selected to extend recovery actions across all fire‐affected species’ habitats. We applied our method to areas burned in the 2019−2020 Australian megafires … Show more

“…Systematic conservation planning was developed to design systems of nature reserves (Kirkpatrick, 1983;Pressey, 1998) and has been widely used for identifying protected area systems and identify large-scale conservation priorities (Balmford et al, 2001;Klein et al, 2009;Margules & Pressey, 2000). It has also been applied to other conservation problems, including identifying where to implement a range of management actions across large regions (Auerbach et al, 2014;Doyle et al, 2019;Thomson et al, 2009;Ward et al, 2022). We are aware of just two studies that use systematic conservation planning tools to identify priority locations for invasive species management that strive to account for spread over time (Adams & Setterfield, 2015;Januchowski-Hartley et al, 2011).…”

“…This information is then used to evaluate the management and economic feasibility of different actions, assess cobenefits, and determine appropriate management strategies. This type of approach is being used to evaluate threats and devise approaches for conserving biodiversity in systems ranging from Sub‐Saharan African lakes experiencing the effects of increased agricultural development (Danaher et al, 2022) to areas burned in the 2019–2020 Australian megafires (Ward et al, 2022).…”

“…Simmonds et al (2023), Los esfuerzos de retención podrían contribuir a múltiples objetivos simultáneamente, especialmente cuando la vegetación natural y semi natural puede gestionarse para lograr cobeneficios para la biodiversidad, el almacenamiento de carbono y la prestación de servicios ecosistémicos. Ward et al (2022), debido al cambio climático, los megaincendios son cada vez más comunes y tienen impactos repentinos y extensos en muchas especies en vastas áreas. Gatto et al (2023), Para las tortugas marinas, como muchas especies ovíparas, el aumento de las temperaturas durante el desarrollo amenaza con aumentar la mortalidad embrionaria, alterar la calidad de las crías y potencialmente crear proporciones primarias de sexos subóptimas.…”
