DOI: 10.1007/s10980-018-0716-y

Abstract: ContextThe ecological literature is filled with studies highlighting the importance of both habitat loss and fragmentation on biodiversity. The patch concept has been central to these findings, being also at the heart of many ecological… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10980-020-01151-0

Abstract: Island Biogeography Theory and Habitat Amount Hypothesis postulate species richness and densities to increase with connectivity and habitat amount, while niche theory highlights the importance of environmental heterogeneity for species coexistence. Additional ecological niches in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.biocon.2018.08.008

Abstract: Abstract Patch size and isolation are traditionally considered as main determinants of species richness in fragmented landscapes, grounded on Island Biogeography Theory (IBT). The Habitat Amount Hypothesis (HAH) is the more recent alternative: species richness… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jbi.13958

Abstract: The habitat amount hypothesis (HAH) predicts that species richness in a habitat site increases with the amount of habitat in the ‘local landscape’ defined by an appropriate distance around the site, with no distinct effects… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/mec.70037

Abstract: Habitat loss and fragmentation are considered key drivers of biodiversity loss. Understanding their relative roles is difficult as habitat loss and fragmentation tend to co‐occur. It has been proposed that the total habitat amount available… read more here.
