A Platform for Solving the Ecologist’s Dilemma; Setting Conservation Procedures

Abstract

Researchers are increasingly faced with ‘Wicked’ problems; multifaceted complex challenges that span disciplines, knowledge bases, and value systems [1]. They are sequential to other problems, lack clear solution, and may be easily misrepresented as an isolated concern [2]. Ecological and environmental wicked challenges are often rooted in spillover effects from biodiversity, ecosystem services, social and environmental aspects, management implications, and economic profitability goals [3-6].
