We suggest that future road construction in wetland areas should address the direct and combined effects of roads and habitat configuration (and changes) on birds, in a way that enhances both avian diversity and wetland biodiversity conservation as a whole....
The risk levels depended on the habitat and on local case study context. Synthesis and applications: A contextualised risk-based approach can help to prioritise sustainability issues for management in data-poor regions by making use of a range of knowledge types from local experts to broader ...
The IUCN Red list estimates that nearly 18,000 out of 52,000 (35%) species assessed so far are threatened with extinction with nearly all the driving causes leading back to human interference, whether it is through climate change, habitat loss or the introduction of invasive species. It is ...
To evaluate the importance of this richness for global biodiversity it is necessary to know the degree of homogenization of the city flora at a continental or even worldwide scale. Therefore, we looked for a habitat type that is typical urban and which is represented in nearly all cities of ...
" not only removes carbon from the atmosphere but also provides a unique habitat for deep-sea organisms. Smith and Baco (2003) found that whale falls create complex ecosystems that can support over 100 species, some of which are found nowhere else. The ecological contributions of whales extend...
[8]. Additionally, a complex classification of landscape services is presented by Bastian et al. [2] where the services are classified into several categories, as follows: supply services, regulatory services, biological services (habitat functions), socio-cultural services and information services. ...

aAs an example, % habitat fragmentation (highest values are least sustainable) would be normalised in the opposite direction to trends in farmland bird populations (lowest values are least sustainable) with respect to sustainability for biodiversity. 为例, %栖所破碎(上限值是最少能承受的)在到趋向...

The objective of our research is to study effects of a small-bodied fish acting as a top-predator in a species-poor habitat with high abundance of omnivorous species. To address this question we performed a field experiment in a Mediterranean salt marsh using mesocosms to assess if a small ...
