Severe decline in terrestrial insect species richness, abundance, flying biomass, and local
extinctions across Europe are cause for alarm. Here, we summarize this decline, and identify …

Connectivity is classically considered an emergent property of landscapes encapsulating
individuals' flows across space. However, its operational use requires a precise …

For epidemiologists, evolutionary biologists, and health-care professionals, real-time and
predictive modeling of infectious disease is of growing importance. This book provides a …

The growing awareness of the adverse effects of habitat fragmentation on natural systems
has resulted in a rapidly increasing number of actions to reduce current fragmentation of …

Urbanisation and agriculture cause declines for many wildlife, but some species benefit from
novel resources, especially food, provided in human‐dominated habitats. Resulting shifts in …

A conservative estimate for the total number of species dependent on dead-wood habitats is
4000-5000 within the area of Finland, which accounts for 20-25% of all forest-dwelling …

The fragmentation of forests is a dominant human impact worldwide with major implications
for the conservation and management of ecosystems. Although many studies have …

While most efforts at biodiversity conservation have focused primarily on protected areas
and reserves, the unprotected lands surrounding those area—the" matrix"—are equally …

Metacommunity ecology combines local (eg, environmental filtering and biotic interactions)
and regional (eg, dispersal and heterogeneity) processes to understand patterns of species …

Climate change and habitat fragmentation are considered key pressures on biodiversity. In
this paper we explore the potential synergetic effects between these factors. We argue that …
