Desperately Seeking Stable 50-Year-Old Landscapes with Patches and Long, Wide Corridors
Human activities such as urbanization and roads have disrupted movement and gene flow for plants, reptiles, mammals, sedentary birds, and arthropods [1,2]. Indeed, human-caused habitat fragmentation is a leading threat to biodiversity [3]. As plant and animal populations become smaller and more isolated they become more susceptible to stochastic events and reduced genetic diversity via drift an...
متن کاملLarge-Scale Habitat Corridors for Biodiversity Conservation: A Forest Corridor in Madagascar
In biodiversity conservation, habitat corridors are assumed to increase landscape-level connectivity and to enhance the viability of otherwise isolated populations. While the role of corridors is supported by empirical evidence, studies have typically been conducted at small spatial scales. Here, we assess the quality and the functionality of a large 95-km long forest corridor connecting two la...
متن کاملA Dynamic Model for Evaluating the Utility of Railway Transit Corridors; a Case study of Bandar Abbas-Sarakhs Corridor
Currently, road transportation is the main mode of freight transit in Iran and about 90% of freight transit is done through this mode of transportation which is not in line with the transportation policies that based on them 70% of the freight transit should be done through road transportation and 30% of the freight transit should be done through rail transportation. However, Iran's railway net...
متن کاملResearchers seek guidance on "preproposal" for in utero gene therapy.
Despite all this promising work, some epidemiological data comparing tea drinkers and non-tea drinkers does not support the claim that tea prevents cancer. One study even found tea drinkers have higher cancer rates than nontea drinkers; two others showed no tea effects. Difficulties sorting out possible confounding factors, such as other diet and health-related habits , may continue to hinder s...
متن کاملCorridors for Conservation: Integrating Pattern and Process
Corridors are commonly used to connect fragments of wildlife habitat, yet the identification of conservation corridors typically neglects processes of habitat selection and movement for target organisms. Instead, corridor designs often are based on binary patterns of habitat suitability. New technologies and analytical tools make it possible to better integrate landscape patterns with behaviora...
