Abstract
The basic assumption of the GoBi Research Group which is supported e.g. by the results of the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment is that to a large degree, significantly reducing the rate of global biodiversity loss depends on managing protected areas. The concrete research gaps which the GoBi Research Group attempts to close surround the problem that although more than 100,000 protected areas cover about 10 percent of the Earth’s terrestrial surface today, success in protected area biodiversity preservation often leaves much room for improvement.
