Understanding how landscape characteristics affect biodiversity patterns and ecological
processes at local and landscape scales is critical for mitigating effects of global …

We synthesize findings from one of the world's largest and longest‐running experimental
investigations, the B iological D ynamics of F orest F ragments P roject (BDFFP). Spanning …

Although habitat loss is the predominant factor leading to biodiversity loss in the
Anthropocene,, exactly how this loss manifests—and at which scales—remains a central …

The realization of conservation goals requires strategies for managing whole landscapes
including areas allocated to both production and protection. Reserves alone are not …

We synthesize findings to date from the world's largest and longest-running experimental
study of habitat fragmentation, located in central Amazonia. Over the past 32years …

Aim In a selected literature survey we reviewed studies on the habitat heterogeneity–animal
species diversity relationship and evaluated whether there are uncertainties and biases in …

Habitat loss has pervasive and disruptive impacts on biodiversity in habitat remnants. The
magnitude of the ecological impacts of habitat loss can be exacerbated by the spatial …

The vast scope of conservation problems has forced biologists and managers to rely on"
surrogate" species to serve as shortcuts to guide their decision making. These species …

We synthesized key findings from the Biological Dynamics of Forest Fragments Project, the
world's largest and longest‐running experimental study of habitat fragmentation. Although …

Losses of natural and semi-natural forests, mostly to agriculture, are a significant concern for
biodiversity. Against this trend, the area of intensively managed plantation forests increases …
