Expert predictions of changes in vegetation condition reveal perceived risks in biodiversity offsetting.
Biodiversity offsetting typically involves the trade of certain losses of habitat with uncertain future conservation benefits. Predicting the latter requires estimates of two outcomes; the biodiversity losses without conservation management (averted loss), and the biodiversity gains with conservatio...
