Plural values of nature help to understand contested pathways to sustainability
Despite globally agreed sustainability goals, advocacy for specific pathways of action remains highly contested. Disagreement about how best to advance sustainability can produce constructive debate but can also lead to marginalization, conflict, and inaction. This review uncovers how different “values of nature” underpin allegiance to different pathways of action for sustainability. It analyzes four selected pathways: (1) Green Economy, (2) Natu…
Diverse values of nature for sustainability
Twenty-five years since foundational publications on valuing ecosystem services for human well-being 1,2 , addressing the global biodiversity crisis 3 still implies confronting barriers to incorporating nature’s diverse values into decision-making. These barriers include powerful interests supported by current norms and legal rules such as property rights, which determine whose values and which values of nature are acted on. A better understandin…

The Phylogenetic Moment-A New Diversity Measure, with Procedures for Measurement and Optimisation
The measurement of diversity in biological systems is an increasingly important requirement in environmental planning at regional, national, and even international levels. Phylogenetic diversity indicates the biological variety present in a set of species by reference to the phylogenetic relationships amongst the species. A new diversity measure is proposed which for a given group indicates how well a given set of extant taxa represent the group …
A Comparison of Two Approaches to Beta-Flexible Clustering
We introduce a UPGMA based counterpart to the Lance and Williams (1966) p-flexible clustering strategy. This new method is compared with the original p-flexible technique based on WPGMA for a range of fl values from -0.8 to +0.1. Recovery of the known cluster structure from simulated data was evaluated using the Hubert and Arabie (1985) version of the Rand statistic. The algorithm used to generate the simulated clusters in the study included erro…
An Adjacency Constraint in Agglomerative Hierarchical Classifications of Geographic Data
A numerical method for classifying geographic data is presented which incorporates geographic location as an external constraint. The method was implemented by making minimal changes to an existing agglomerative hierarchical algorithm. This was seen as the simplest solution, both computationally and operationally. Given a matrix of similarities or distances calculated from the usual intrinsic variables, the classification proceeds normally with t…
