Landscape modification and habitat fragmentation: a synthesis
Landscape modification and habitat fragmentation are key drivers of global species loss.
Their effects may be understood by focusing on:(1) individual species and the processes …

Rethinking patch size and isolation effects: the habitat amount hypothesis
L Fahrig - Journal of biogeography, 2013 - Wiley Online Library
I challenge (1) the assumption that habitat patches are natural units of measurement for
species richness, and (2) the assumption of distinct effects of habitat patch size and isolation …

A new habitat availability index to integrate connectivity in landscape conservation planning: comparison with existing indices and application to a case study
S Saura, L Pascual-Hortal - Landscape and urban planning, 2007 - Elsevier
Connectivity is a major concern for the maintenance of wildlife populations, ecological flows,
and many other landscape functions. For these reasons many different connectivity indices …

Habitat fragmentation causes immediate and time‐delayed biodiversity loss at different trophic levels
Ecology Letters (2010) 13: 597–605 Abstract Intensification or abandonment of agricultural
land use has led to a severe decline of semi‐natural habitats across Europe. This can cause …

Individual dispersal, landscape connectivity and ecological networks
Connectivity is classically considered an emergent property of landscapes encapsulating
individuals' flows across space. However, its operational use requires a precise …

EDITOR'S CHOICE: Step** stones are crucial for species' long‐distance dispersal and range expansion through habitat networks
Climate and land‐use changes will require species to move large distances following shifts
in their suitable habitats, which will frequently involve traversing intensively human‐modified …

Zero tolerance ecology: improving ecological inference by modelling the source of zero observations
A common feature of ecological data sets is their tendency to contain many zero values.
Statistical inference based on such data are likely to be inefficient or wrong unless careful …
