Reproductive rate and body size predict road impacts on mammal abundance

T Rytwinski, L Fahrig - Ecological Applications, 2011 - Wiley Online Library
It has been hypothesized that mobile species should be more negatively affected by road
mortality than less‐mobile species because they interact with roads more often, and that …

Effect of road density on abundance of white-footed mice

T Rytwinski, L Fahrig - Landscape Ecology, 2007 - Springer
While several studies have demonstrated that roads can act as barriers to small mammal
movement, the relationship between road density and small mammal abundance has not yet …
