Fragmented nature: consequences for biodiversity
We discuss how fragmentation of resources and habitat operate differently on species diversity across spatial scales, ranging from positive effects on local species coexistence to negative effect on intermediate spatial scales, to again positive effects on large spatial and temporal scales. Species with different size and mobility can be regulated by different processes at the same spatial scal...
متن کاملEvaluating Biodiversity in Fragmented Landscapes
UK forests and woodlands are often of considerable value to biodiversity. There is now a growing need to evaluate the impacts of forest management on biodiversity, in order to maintain and enhance the wildlife value at the landscape scale. The development of biodiversity evaluation tools will enable forest and land managers to make informed choices at this scale in order to provide sustainable ...
متن کاملCauses and Consequences of Fragmented Process Information
Having access to the right information is vital to the effective and efficient execution of an organization’s business processes. A major challenge in this regard is that information on a single process is often spread out over numerous models, documents, and systems. Despite the potential consequences of this situation, there is a lack of insights on how to mitigate its impact. Against this ba...
متن کاملAn Aesthetics of Nature Consequences of Merleau-Ponty’s embodied ontology
In his courses on Nature, the French phenomenologist Maurice Merleau-Ponty clearly does not agree with Kant's antropocentrism. In particular the Kantian notion of the disinterestedness of aesthetic perception is untenable in an aesthetics of nature which is inspired by Merleau-Ponty's thought. Nature and human embodiment are seen as separated in this Kantian tradition. In Merleau-Ponty’s pheno...
متن کاملBiodiversity, Species Interactions and Ecological Networks in a Fragmented World
Biodiversity is organised into complex ecological networks of interacting species in local ecosystems, but our knowledge about the effects of habitat fragmentation on such systems remains limited. We consider the effects of this key driver of both local and global change on both mutualistic and antagonistic systems at different levels of biological organisation and spatiotemporal scales. There ...
