China's endemic vertebrates sheltering under the protective umbrella of the giant panda.
Li, Binbin V; Pimm, Stuart L (Conservation biology : the journal of the Society for Conservation Biology, 2016-04)The giant panda attracts disproportionate conservation resources. How well does this emphasis protect other endemic species? Detailed data on geographical ranges are not available for plants or invertebrates, so we restrict ... -
Ecology and economics for pandemic prevention.
Dobson, Andrew P; Pimm, Stuart L; Hannah, Lee; Kaufman, Les; Ahumada, Jorge A; Ando, Amy W; Bernstein, Aaron; ... (17 authors) (Science (New York, N.Y.), 2020-07) -
Free-ranging livestock threaten the long-term survival of giant pandas
Li, Binbin V; Pimm, Stuart L; Li, Sheng; Zhao, Lianjun; Luo, Chunping (Biological Conservation, 2017-12-01)© 2017 Elsevier Ltd China has implemented forest policies and expanded protected areas to halt deforestation and protect giant panda habitats. These policies simultaneously encouraged local communities to raise livestock ... -
How China expanded its protected areas to conserve biodiversity.
Li, Binbin V; Pimm, Stuart L (Current biology : CB, 2020-11)How has the global network of protected areas developed - and which decisions have guided this development? Answering these questions may give insight into what might be possible in the next decade. In 2021, China will host ... -
How to protect half of Earth to ensure it protects sufficient biodiversity.
Pimm, Stuart L; Jenkins, Clinton N; Li, Binbin V (Science advances, 2018-08-29)It is theoretically possible to protect large fractions of species in relatively small regions. For plants, 85% of species occur entirely within just over a third of the Earth's land surface, carefully optimized to maximize ... -
Incorporating explicit geospatial data shows more species at risk of extinction than the current Red List.
Ocampo-Peñuela, Natalia; Jenkins, Clinton N; Vijay, Varsha; Li, Binbin V; Pimm, Stuart L (Science advances, 2016-11-09)The IUCN (International Union for Conservation of Nature) Red List classifies species according to their risk of extinction, informing global to local conservation decisions. Unfortunately, important geospatial data do not ... -
Measuring Terrestrial Area of Habitat (AOH) and Its Utility for the IUCN Red List.
Brooks, Thomas M; Pimm, Stuart L; Akçakaya, H Resit; Buchanan, Graeme M; Butchart, Stuart HM; Foden, Wendy; Hilton-Taylor, Craig; ... (14 authors) (Trends in ecology & evolution, 2019-11)The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species includes assessment of extinction risk for 98 512 species, plus documentation of their range, habitat, elevation, and other factors. ... -
Remotely Sensed Data Informs Red List Evaluations and Conservation Priorities in Southeast Asia.
Li, Binbin V; Hughes, Alice C; Jenkins, Clinton N; Ocampo-Peñuela, Natalia; Pimm, Stuart L (PloS one, 2016-01)The IUCN Red List has assessed the global distributions of the majority of the world's amphibians, birds and mammals. Yet these assessments lack explicit reference to widely available, remotely-sensed data that can sensibly ... -
