Maximizing the success of assisted colonizations

Abstract: Climate change is causing spatio-temporal shifts in environmental conditions, and species that are not able to track suitable environments may face increased risks of extinction. Assisted colonization, a form of translocation, has been proposed as a tool to help species survive the impacts of climate change. Unfortunately, translocations generally have a low success rate, a well-documented fact that is not considered in most of the recent literature on assisted colonization. One of the main impediments to tran… Show more

“…Although analytical methods for making these predictions are rapidly evolving [20], these methods require time, effort, expertise, and most importantly, data. For any candidate species, it is therefore unlikely that all these predictions will be readily available.…”

“…Restored reefs will also allow the survival of other reef dwelling species that would otherwise become extinct in impacted areas. This rationale is suggested and discussed in terrestrial restoration of forests, parks and reserves (Benito-Garz on et al, 2013;Chauvenet et al, 2013) and is also worth emulating in the coral reef arena (Rinkevich, 2014(Rinkevich, , 2015.…”

“…Elevating a species to become a candidate for translocation entails decisions supporting the aforementioned biological need, expected benefit, and cost, along with the technical, institutional, and social feasibility of alternative management actions. Having begun this assessment, careful and specific project planning is required (Fig. ).…”
