We are facing a biodiversity crisis at the same time as we are acquiring an unprecedented view of the world's biodiversity. Vast new datasets (e.g., species distributions, traits, phylogenies, and interaction networks) hold knowledge to better comprehend the depths of biodiversity change, reliably anticipate these changes, and inform conservation actions. To harness this information for conservation, we need to integrate the largely independent fields of biodiversity modeling and conservation. We highlight new developments in each respective field, early examples of how they are being brought together, and ideas for a future synthesis such that conservation decisions can be made with fuller awareness of the biodiversity at stake.
我们正面临着生物多样性危机，同时也以前所未有的视角了解世界的生物多样性。大量新的数据集（例如物种分布、特征、系统发育和相互作用网络）蕴含着更好地理解生物多样性变化深度、可靠预测这些变化并为保护行动提供信息的知识。为了利用这些信息进行保护，我们需要整合生物多样性建模和保护这两个基本独立的领域。我们强调了每个领域的新发展，以及它们如何结合在一起的早期例子，并为未来的综合提出了一些想法，以便在做出保护决策时能更充分地认识到所涉及的生物多样性。
