Biological Conservation publishes the leading research in the discipline of conservation biology. The journal is globally relevant
and international in scope. It publishes articles spanning a diverse range of fields that contribute to the biological, sociological,
and economic dimensions of conservation and natural resource management. Biological Conservation has as its primary aim the publication
of high-quality papers that advance the science and practice of conservation, or which demonstrate the application of conservation principles
for natural resource management and policy, and which therefore will be of interest to a broad international readership. Biological Conservation
invites the submission of research articles, reviews (including systematic reviews), short communications and letters dealing with all
aspects of conservation science, including theoretical and empirical investigations into the consequences of human actions for the diversity,
structure and function of terrestrial, aquatic or marine ecosystems. Such papers may include quantitative assessments of extinction risk,
fragmentation effects, spread of invasive organisms, conservation genetics, conservation management, global change effects on biodiversity,
landscape or reserve design and management, restoration ecology, or resource economics. Although the journal's coverage of interdisciplinary
topics within conservation biology is highly relevant to scientists at academic, research and non-governmental institutions, the emphasis
on the practical applications of conservation research also provide essential information for land/resource managers and policy makers
charged with protecting biological diversity and ultimately implementing conservation science into conservation practice.
