The study of landscape connectivity in conservation has increased considerably since the
early part of the 21st century. While the implications of landscape connectivity are self …

Landscape genetics is now ten years old. It has stimulated research into the effect of
landscapes on evolutionary processes. This review describes the main topics that have …

Habitat fragmentation, a contributor to biodiversity degradation in urbanized regions, will
result from rapid urbanization. Due to the low quality of habitats and the complexity of land …

Context As urbanization continues, ecosystem stability faces serious challenges. Ecological
security patterns have become a main tool with which the contradictions between economic …

Ecological corridors are effective to prevent ecosystem degradation and biodiversity loss
through promoting the connection among discrete habitat patches. Identifying ecological …

Landscape connectivity is crucial for many ecological processes, including dispersal, gene
flow, demographic rescue, and movement in response to climate change. As a result …

Designing connected landscapes is among the most widespread strategies for achieving
biodiversity conservation targets. The challenge lies in simultaneously satisfying the …

Urbanization caused by intensive land-use change is the main driving force of environment
degradation. The development and protection of ecological corridors to connect green …

The goal of this chapter is to describe the state of the art in quantitative corridor and
connectivity modelling. It reviews several critical issues in modelling, and provides expert …

Large connected landscapes are paramount to maintain top predator populations. Across
their range, tiger (Panthera tigris) populations occur in small fragmented patches of habitat …
