Do people prefer natural landscapes? An empirical study in Chile
(2018)
There is a growing consciousness that the viability of landscape-related policy depends on support from the general public. However, during planning stages, knowledge regarding landscape perceptions and preferences of ...
Forest cover and landscape heterogeneity shape ant–plant co-occurrence networks in human-dominated tropical rainforests
(2019-01-15)
Context: The effects of habitat loss and fragmentation on biodiversity involve a series of mechanisms and processes that cannot be studied in isolation, mainly because human-modified landscapes are spatially heterogeneous. ...
The landscape complexity relevance to farming effect assessment on small mammal occupancy in Argentinian farmlands
(Springer, 2019-11-05)
The responses of organisms to organic farming depend on the taxonomic group and landscape complexity. Following the intermediate landscape complexity hypothesis, organic farming can compensate for the lack of complexity ...
How deforestation pattern in the Amazon influences vertebrate richness and community composition
(SPRINGERDORDRECHT, 2012)
The effects of habitat configuration on species persistence are predicted to be most apparent when remaining habitat cover is below 30%. We tested this prediction by comparing vertebrate communities in 21 landscapes located ...
Effects of habitat loss, habitat fragmentation, and isolation on the density, species richness, and distribution of ladybeetles in manipulated alfalfa landscapes
(BLACKWELL, 2006-12)
1. Habitat loss and fragmentation are the main causes of changes in the distribution and abundance of organisms, and are usually considered to negatively affect the abundance and species richness of organisms in a landscape. ...
What do we know about the effects of landscape changes on plant–pollinator interaction networks?
(Ecological IndicatorsBrasil, 2013)
Biotic interactions play an important role on the organization and persistence of biodiversity. Unnatural modifications of landscape structure such as habitat loss and fragmentation can isolate populations and disrupt ...
Dispersal movement through fragmented landscapes: the role of stepping stones and perceptual range
(2021-11-01)
Context: Dispersal is a crucial process for species persistence under natural and disturbed landscapes. The effectiveness of stepping stones as a connectivity strategy for increasing dispersal success depends on landscape ...
Landscape complexity affects cover and species richness of weeds in Brazilian agricultural environments
(2016-12-01)
The influence of the landscape context on weed communities in farmland has been investigated mostly in temperate regions, while there is a paucity of information for the Neotropics. The aim of this study was to estimate ...
Measuring cumulative effects in a fragmented landscape
(Elsevier Science BvAmsterdamHolanda, 2012)
Landscape heterogeneity shapes bird phylogenetic responses at forest–matrix interfaces in Atlantic Forest, Brazil
(2021-03-01)
Agricultural intensification is one of the major factors driving biodiversity loss. However, most studies in human-dominated landscapes have used taxonomic diversity in their analysis, ignoring evolutionary relationships. ...
