Dispersal costs can be classified into energetic, time, risk and opportunity costs and may be
levied directly or deferred during departure, transfer and settlement. They may equally be …

In extensively modified landscapes, how the matrix is managed determines many
conservation outcomes. Recent publications revise popular conceptions of a homogeneous …

The study of animal movement has always been a key element in ecological science,
because it is inherently linked to critical processes that scale from individuals to populations …

Knowledge of the ecological and evolutionary causes of dispersal can be crucial in
understanding the behaviour of spatially structured populations, and predicting how species …

▪ Abstract Edge effects have been studied for decades because they are a key component to
understanding how landscape structure influences habitat quality. However, making sense …

While the mechanistic links between animal movement and population dynamics are
ecologically obvious, it is much less clear when knowledge of animal movement is a …

Summary 1 I synthesize the understanding of the relationship between landscape structure
and animal movement in human‐modified landscapes. 2 The variety of landscape structures …

It has been increasingly recognized that the type of matrix surrounding habitat patches can
affect biodiversity in landscapes, but there were only qualitative reviews of the subject …

Landscape connectivity can be viewed from two perspectives that could be considered as
extremes of a gradient: functional connectivity (refers to how the behavior of a dispersing …

Dispersal is a central process in ecology and evolution. At the individual level, the three
stages of the dispersal process (ie, emigration, transience and immigration) are affected by …
