Abstract
The successful spatial management of landscapes is a complex task, while decision-making becomes more challenging when conflicts arise from conservation actions in multiple-use landscapes. This is especially true when attempting to conserve mobile species that are disproportionately threatened by anthropogenic activities and climate change. In this thesis, I have developed decision tools and models for the conservation of mobile species in multiple-use landscapes. These tools spatially optimise biodiversity conservation and economic objectives while also identifying potential locations to establish conservation offsets and critical ecological resources.
