DOI: 10.1007/s00267-025-02206-1
Abstract: Habitat reduction is significantly threatening biodiversity, making ecological connectivity which facilitates species movement across habitat patches, essential for human impacts mitigation, promoting genetic exchange, and enabling colonization of new areas. Ecological connectivity in the River… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10980-024-01890-4
Abstract: Species-agnostic connectivity models are often used to inform management over broad spatial scales. The four main approaches to species-agnostic models parameterize resistance to movement based on naturalness, structural features, climate, or geodiversity variables. Though all… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2017.e00325
Abstract: Urban expansion increases fragmentation of the landscape. In effect, fragmentation decreases connectivity, causes green space loss and impacts upon the ecology and function of green space. Restoration of the functionality of green space often requires… read more here.
