Incorporating climate velocity into the design of climate-smart networks of protected areas

N. Arafeh-Dalmau, I. Brito-Morales, D. S. Schoeman, H. P. Possingham, C. J. Klein, A. J. Richardson

This paper explores methods to integrate climate velocity into protected area design to protect climate refugia and enhance ecological resilience, finding that incorporating climate velocity as a boundary or feature provides cost-effective solutions.
