Modelling trade offs between public and private conservation policies

<27> Rigorously demonstrates the authors’ open-source Tzar modelling framework in a real-world conservation planning context. Tzar, freely available (http://code.google.com/p/rdv-framework/), is an original, timely approach to model sharing which enables informed inter-comparison and evaluation of analyses and its reproducible workflows are versioned. This paper led to further commissioned work (90k AUD) on native woodland around Sydney and invited presentations (Imperial College London; 2009 International Conference on Sustainability Measurement and Modelling, Spain; workshop at EcoTAS 2013, New Zealand). Tzar is a significant component of the Australian Virtual Laboratory for Biodiversity and Climate Change (Brendan Mackey, b.mackey@griffith.edu.au).
