A framework is introduced for conservation selection that incorporates species weights and benefit functions for overrepresentation and underrepresentation; that is, the number of locations for individual species, and is applied to forest conservation in Finland.

Article Abstract:
The impact of uncertainty, such as anthropogenic threat, is examined for three common formulations of reserve selection, land-cover type proportions, the anticipated number of populations, and the likelihood of having a minimum of a single population.
