摘要：
Connectivity underpins the persistence of life; it needs to inform biodiversity con-servation decisions. Yet, when prioritising conservation areas and developing actions, connectivity is not being operationalised in spatial planning. The chal-lenge is the translation of flows associated with connectivity into conservation objectives that lead to actions. Connectivity is nebulous, it can be abstract and mean different things to different people, making it difficult to include in conser-vation problems. Here, we show how connectivity can be included in mathemat-ically defining conservation planning objectives. We provide a path forward for linking connectivity to high-level conservation goals, such as increasing species' persistence. We propose ways to design spatial management areas that gain biodiversity benefit from connectivity.
