This study investigates the robustness and adequacy of the IUCN Red List of Ecosystems (RLE)’s approach when performing risk assessments using a fringe mangrove ecosystem as a case study, as well as the identification of ecosystems which are more vulnerable to global environmental change.

On May 21, 2014, the IUCN formally approved the categories and criteria for identifying and evaluating the risk of ecosystems. This year the Red List of Ecosystems (RLE) celebrates its 4th Anniversary.
Defining the appropriate spatial scale for robust estimates of risks to species and ecosystems

IUCN scientists demonstrate that estimates of the Area of Occupancy (AOO) at scales proportional to the spatial extent of the threats are robust predictors of risks to biodiversity.
