劣化生態系の回復において、炭素隔離と生物多様性保全の複数目的を同時最大化する空間的優先順位をAIソフトウェアCAPTAINで特定した研究。生物多様性を低〜中程度考慮するだけで絶滅危惧種保全が大きく改善し、炭素吸収の減少は僅少であることをシミュレーションで示す。炭素・生物多様性クレジットのバンドリングにより経済的に除外されてきた地域でも回復事業を支援できると提案し、南米大西洋岸森林の植物多様性に適用して有効性を実証した。
English
This study uses AI software CAPTAIN to identify spatial restoration priorities that jointly maximize carbon sequestration and biodiversity conservation under budget constraints. Simulations show that even low-to-moderate biodiversity weighting greatly improves threatened-species outcomes with only slight carbon loss. The authors propose bundling biodiversity and carbon credits to fund restoration in previously uneconomic areas, demonstrated on plant diversity in the Atlantic Forest.

日本のGX文脈において
自然資本・生物多様性クレジットはTNFDやSSBJの自然関連開示と連動しつつあり、日本企業が生物多様性オフセットやクレジット調達を検討する際の定量的なトレードオフ評価手法として参考になる。
In the global GX context
As TNFD and nature-related disclosure gain traction alongside carbon markets, this work offers a quantitative method for evaluating biodiversity-carbon trade-offs relevant to credit design and nature-positive transition finance.

📄 Abstract（原文）
The restoration of degraded ecosystems is critical for mitigating climate change and reversing biodiversity loss. Depending on the primary objective – such as maximizing carbon sequestration or protecting threatened species – and within the boundaries of budget limitations, different spatial priorities have been identified at global and regional scales. Funding mechanisms to support such work comprise public sources, philanthropy, and the private sector, including the sale of carbon and biodiversity credits. However, effectively exploring trade-offs among restoration objectives and estimating the price of biodiversity and carbon credits to design financially viable projects remain scientifically challenging. Here we harness the power of artificial intelligence implemented in the software CAPTAIN to identify spatial priorities for ecological restoration that maximize multiple objectives at once and to allow a robust evaluation of biodiversity and climate outcomes. We find through a series of simulations that even low-to-moderate consideration of biodiversity in the design of restoration projects leads to the selection of restored areas that disproportionately improve the conservation of threatened species, while the carbon captured is only slightly reduced. We propose the bundling of biodiversity and carbon credits to support restoration efforts even in areas previously excluded for economic reasons. Applying our methodology to plant diversity in the Atlantic Forest of eastern South America, one of the most biodiverse and threatened ecosystems globally, we demonstrate its potential to guide restoration and to quantify trade-offs between multiple optimization scenarios. Our study provides a robust, scalable method to maximize the joint benefits of ecological restoration for climate and nature.
