This could help determine if an intersection of results from multiple scales can potentially be used to prioritize areas for conservation found to be important at several spatial scales. Using MARXAN and least corridor analysis technologies, potential regional amd intraregional conservation networks were compared. Large differences arose, specifically in the disparateness of the identified corridors that connect core reserves. To analyze the impact of scale effects on conservation planning by analyzing conservation networks at local and regional scales.
