The abilities of species to use the matrix of modified habitats surrounding forest fragments
may affect their vulnerability in fragmented landscapes. We used long-term (up to 19-year) …

We evaluated the influence of scale on habitat use for three wetland-obligate bird species
with divergent life history characteristics and possible scale-dependent criteria for nesting …

1. Breeding sites of raptors were studied in relation to land‐use and edge habitat using two
different scales in semi‐arid Mediterranean landscapes in south‐eastern Spain. Habitat …

We identified land uses, vegetation cover types, and landscape patterns associated with
avian community diversity in 2 rural landscapes in a hardwood forest-tallgrass prairie …

Low-density development consumes large tracts of the rural landscape surrounding Great
Plains cities. Our objective was to determine how low-density sprawl influences the …

Abstract Canada Warblers (Wilsonia canadensis) and Norther Waterthrushes (Seiurus
noveboracensis)–both fores-interior, neotropical migrants–are the only breeding bird …

The objective of the study was to determine the landscape structure indices influencing the
occurrence of White Stork s (Ciconia ciconia) nests. The analyses were performed for the …

This research reconciled and compared two, large-area surface cover data sets to examine
relationships between temporal changes in landscape structure and trends in breeding bird …

Effective management of white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) can be enhanced by the
integration of wildlife science, modern technology, and wildlife managers' expertise. The …

Habitat alterations that result in the isolation of optimal breeding areas, may reduce gene
flow between populations, and result in loss of genetic variation due to genetic drift. To test if …
