The use of native vegetation as a proxy for habitat may overestimate habitat availability in fragmented landscapes
(Springer, 2016-05-01)
Native vegetation is often used as a proxy for habitat to estimate habitat availability in landscapes. This approach may lead to incorrect estimates of the impacts of habitat loss and fragmentation on species, which have ...
Effects of habitat fragmentation on seed quality of Lapageria rosea Efecto de la fragmentación del hábitat sobre la calidad de las semillas en Lapageria rosea
(2004)
Habitat fragmentation is commonly associated to a reduction in plant fitness, because the reduction in the number of seeds produced. However habitat fragmentation might also affect plant fitness through a reduction in the ...
Habitat fragmentation negatively affects effective gene flow via pollen, and male and female fitness in the dioecious tree, Spondias purpurea (Anacardiaceae)
(2021-03-01)
Habitat fragmentation is recognized as one of main threats to global biodiversity. Habitat fragmentation negatively affects population size and mutualistic interactions that directly impact plant fitness and genetic ...
Meta-analysis of anthropogenic habitat disturbance effects on animal-mediated seed dispersal
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2015)
Anthropogenic habitat disturbance is a strong biodiversity change driver that compromises not only
the species persistence but also the ecological interactions in which they are involved. Even though
seed dispersal is a ...
The species-fragmented area relationship
(National Academy Of Sciences, 2013-07)
The species–area relationship (SAR) gives a quantitative description of the increasing number of species in a community with increasing area of habitat. In conservation, SARs have been used to predict the number of extinctions ...
Habitat quality, not habitat amount, drives mammalian habitat use in the Brazilian Pantanal
(2021-01-01)
Context: An understanding of species-habitat relationships is required to assess the impacts of habitat fragmentation and degradation. To date, habitat modeling in fragmented landscapes has relied on landscape composition ...
Unraveling the drivers of community dissimilarity and species extinction in fragmented landscapes
(ECOLOGICAL SOC AMERWASHINGTON, 2012)
Communities in fragmented landscapes are often assumed to be structured by species extinction due to habitat loss, which has led to extensive use of the species-area relationship (SAR) in fragmentation studies. However, ...
