Effects of road density and pattern on the conservation of species and biodiversity
VJ Bennett - Current Landscape Ecology Reports, 2017 - Springer
The development and presence of roads can reduce landscape permeability, lead to habitat
loss, and increase habitat fragmentation. It is these fundamental changes in landscape …
