Naturschutzmanagement in Zeiten des Klimawandels
Climate change is a major threat to biodiversity. Many ecosystems will undergo significant changes with dramatic effects on species distribution and biotic interaction. Species unable to move or adapt in response to climate change will face local or global extinction. Conservation management in the...

Climate change is a major threat to biodiversity. Many ecosystems will undergo significant changes with dramatic effects on species distribution and biotic interaction. Species unable to move or adapt in response to climate change will face local or global extinction. Conservation management in the face of such extensive transformation is a challenging task.

The main objective was the climate proofing of conservation management of endangered species in protected areas. Building on a review of different theoretical approaches a procedure for the climate proofing of conservation management was developed. This planning process was tested and verified for the Hardangervidda National Park in southern Norway.
