    Appendix S1. Detailed information about forest cover map, regional analysis, and data availability.Figure S1. Importance of each focal landscape (FL) for biological flow among FLs (multiscale varIICflux, refer to Calculation of the IICflux in Appendix S1 for details) and as key elements for maintaining connectivity among FLs (varIICconnector) in biogeographical subregions (BSRs) in the Atlantic Forest (refer to text for detailed information on variable definitions and calculation). FLs with higher values of varIICconnector and lower values of multiscale varIICflux highlight the importance of some FLs that do not have high internal connectivity and high biological flow among surrounding landscapes but are very important for maintaining the biological flux in the BSR. FLs with lower varIICconnector and higher multiscale varIICflux indicate FLs that have high internal connectivity but are not bottlenecks because there are other surrounding landscapes with high connectivity that might act as alternative routes.

  • Descrição: The effectiveness of ecological restoration actions toward biodiversity conservation depends on both local and landscape constraints. Extensive information on local constraints is already available, but few studies consider the landscape context when planning restoration actions. We propose a multiscale framework based on the landscape attributes of habitat amount and connectivity to infer landscape resilience and to set priority areas for restoration. Landscapes with intermediate habitat amount and where connectivity remains sufficiently high to favor recolonization were considered to be intermediately resilient, with high possibilities of restoration effectiveness and thus were designated as priority areas for restoration actions. The proposed method consists of three steps: (1) quantifying habitat amount and connectivity; (2) using landscape ecology theory to identify intermediate resilience landscapes based on habitat amount, percolation theory, and landscape connectivity; and (3) ranking landscapes according to their importance as corridors or bottlenecks for biological flows on a broader scale, based on a graph theory approach. We present a case study for the Brazilian Atlantic Forest (approximately 150 million hectares) in order to demonstrate the proposed method. For the Atlantic Forest, landscapes that present high restoration effectiveness represent only 10% of the region, but contain approximately 15 million hectares that could be targeted for restoration actions (an area similar to today's remaining forest extent). The proposed method represents a practical way to both plan restoration actions and optimize biodiversity conservation efforts by focusing on landscapes that would result in greater conservation benefits.
