In recent decades, there has been increased interest in
understanding ecosystems in order to be able to manage and conserve
them. Yet examples of how research directly supports conservation
are rare. Protected area managers and policy makers need scientific
information from protected areas for policy development and to
effectively devise, revise, and implement management strategies.
Researchers seek a clear understanding of what types of research
can directly support conservation efforts to guide them in the
design of such projects. A variety of perspectives of what
constitutes 'conservation' or 'applied' wildlife research may
exist, and indeed conservation priorities do differ between sites
so that ultimately, what we describe here is from one perspective
and designing projects that directly support site conservation
depends on a prior understanding of issues at the site. This book
is intended to encourage thinking about what constitutes
conservation research to be able to better develop projects that
directly support conservation. The aim of this book is to support
research that directly benefits conservation by reviewing applied
research and providing examples in which it has been used for
conservation purposes.
