Resistance surfaces are often used to fill gaps in our knowledge surrounding animal
movement and are frequently the basis for modeling connectivity associated with …

The need to conserve and create linkages among fragmented habitats has given rise to a
range of techniques for maximizing connectivity. Methods to identify optimal habitat linkages …

Summary 1 Better tools are needed to predict population connectivity in complex
landscapes.'Least‐cost modelling'is one commonly employed approach in which dispersal …

Maintaining and restoring connectivity among high-quality habitat patches is recognized as
an important goal for the conservation of animal populations. To provide an efficient …

Context Habitat loss is a major factor influencing declines in landscape connectivity for many
species, but forest patch configuration and changes in matrix permeability can also …

Habitat fragmentation and habitat loss are widely recognized as major threats to biodiversity
on a regional as well as on a global scale. To restrict its effects, ecological networks such as …

Resistance-surface-based connectivity modeling has become a widespread tool for
conservation planning. The current ease with which connectivity models can be created …

Biodiversity loss is progressing despite biodiversity being essential for human survival,
prosperity, and well-being. Conservation, restoration, and sustainable use of the habitat …

This paper aims to identify and evaluate a potential ecological network including core areas
and large-scale corridors in the İzmir Province and its surrounding areas, Turkey. It is one of …

A review of road-ecology literature suggests that impacts of forest roads on species and
ecosystems begin during the road construction phase, but persist and accumulate well after …
