PADDD Annotated Bibliography, Version 1.1

This annotated bibliography provides brief introductions to peer-reviewed publications from the PADDDtracker initiative, which define, document, and assess protected area downgrading, downsizing, and degazettement (PADDD), legal changes that temper restrictions, shrink boundaries, and eliminate protected areas. We summarize the core publications here authored by our team (listed in reverse chronological order), and list additional key references, while acknowledging that hundreds of other publications have cited or used data from PADDDtracker and contributed additional analyses. If you are interested in the full-text versions of these publications or wish to contribute to the list with summaries of additional, relevant publications, please email paddd [dot] team [at] gmail [dot] com.
