Perspectives in Ecology and Conservation

《生态与保护展望》(PECON)是一本致力于提高保护科学理论和概念方面的科学期刊。它的主要目的是将新的研究和进展传播给社会的不同参与者，包括研究人员、自然资源保护主义者、实践者和决策者。《生态与保护展望》发表了关于生物多样性保护与恢复、影响当地生态系统的主要驱动力以及自然对人类和人类福祉的益处的原始论文。这一范围包括生物多样性格局、生境丧失、破碎化、生物入侵和气候变化对生物多样性的影响、保护遗传学、空间保护规划、生态系统管理、生态系统服务、社会生态系统的可持续性和复原力、保护政策等方面的研究。不偏向特定的生物地理区域、生物体或生态系统。科学论文必须注重具有实际意义的新概念或方法的发展。只有将案例研究插入这些更一般的上下文中，才会予以考虑。我们鼓励作者提交评论和论文，提供有关生态和保护问题的新观点。没有与保护理论和实践明确联系的纯描述性论文和研究将不予考虑。《生态与保护展望》是“巴西生态科学与保护协会”的官方科学期刊。这是一个开放获取的期刊，由Boticario集团自然保护基金会支持，因此对作者不收取任何费用。《生态与保护展望》(Perspectives in Ecology and Conservation)曾于2003年至2016年间出版，名为《自然资源保护》(Natureza & Conservacao)。

Perspectives in Ecology and Conservation (PECON) is a scientific journal devoted to improving theoretical and conceptual aspects of conservation science. It has the main purpose of communicating new research and advances to different actors of society, including researchers, conservationists, practitioners, and policymakers. Perspectives in Ecology and Conservation publishes original papers on biodiversity conservation and restoration, on the main drivers affecting native ecosystems, and on nature’s benefits to people and human wellbeing. This scope includes studies on biodiversity patterns, the effects of habitat loss, fragmentation, biological invasion and climate change on biodiversity, conservation genetics, spatial conservation planning, ecosystem management, ecosystem services, sustainability and resilience of socio-ecological systems, conservation policy, among others.There is no bias towards particular biogeographic regions, organisms or ecosystems. Scientific papers must focus on new conceptual or methodological developments with practical implications. Case studies will be considered only if inserted in these more general contexts. Authors are encouraged to submit reviews and essays that provide new perspectives on arising ecological and conservation issues. Purely descriptive papers and studies without a clear link with conservation theory and practice will not be considered.Perspectives in Ecology and Conservation is the official scientific journal of the "Brazilian Association for Ecological Science and Conservation". It is an open access journal, supported by the Boticário Group Foundation for Nature Protection, and thus without any charge for authors. Perspectives in Ecology and Conservation was previously published, between 2003 and 2016, as "Natureza & Conserva??o".
