contents Figure 3 | Two palaeoecological examples from New Zealand showing different potential conservation practices. This figure assumes a context where the most desired state is the least altered by humans, although we recognize that this may not always be the key goal of conservation managers in practice. We are showing a modified Jackson–Hobbs framework8 applied to two palaeoecological examples in New Zealand, Tawhiti Rahi Island of the Poor Knights Islands16 and the Auckland Islands28. In the first example, the pollen shows that the current vegetation composition on the Poor Knights is completely different to the pre-human state, and the level of intervention required to return it to its undisturbed state would be prohibitive. Furthermore, palaeoecological insights from the Poor Knights have revealed that the native Metrosideros forest is not a good analogue for a pre-human restoration endpoint on other more degraded islands in northern New Zealand. In the second example, pollen and charcoal analyses were able to resolve the nonnative status of a tree daisy on sub-Antarctic Auckland Islands, and show that although its establishment was facilitated by anthropogenic disturbance, the tree has been slow to spread. Pollen and charcoal records suggest this non-native tree poses a low risk to the Auckland Islands' ecological integrity, and the level of intervention required to return the invaded sites to a pre-invaded state would be relatively modest. However, current management practices of ongoing monitoring and no intervention are also appropriate. Figure adapted with permission from ref. 16, Wiley-Blackwell (top); ref. 8, AAAS (middle); and ref. 28, Oxford Univ. Press (bottom).
