A forest manager is evaluating conservation solutions to help an endangered woodpecker that nests in old trees. Solutions are evaluated using multiple criteria (effects on the species and economic constraints). Evidence:
  • Solution 1: Protect all trees older than 80 years in a 5,000-hectare area. Nesting sites increase by 30% over 5 years; timber revenue decreases by $1.2 million/year.
  • Solution 2: Install 200 artificial nest boxes and protect trees older than 120 years. Nesting sites increase by 18% over 5 years; timber revenue decreases by $300,000/year; nest box maintenance is $25,000/year.
