(Pontificia Universidad Catolica de Chile, Facultad de Agronomia e Ingenieria Forestal, 2011)Habitat fragmentation can affect the morphological design of flying insects in different ways through changes in the costs and benefits of dispersal patterns. Larger wings should be favored if necessary resources are ...
-
(Ecological Society of America, 1999)Impacts of habitat fragmentation on forest bird communities have often been studied in landscapes dominated by agriculture. The striking structural differences between forest fragments and the matrix have led most researchers ...
-
(Sociedad de Biología de Chile, 2022)Background Habitat fragmentation and degradation processes affect biodiversity by reducing habitat quantity and quality, with differential effects on the resident species. However, their consequences are not always noticeable ...
-
(Czech Academy of Sciences, 2008)In agro-ecosystems, habitat loss and fragmentation may alter the assemblage of aphidophagous insects, such as foliarforaging (coccinellids) and ground-foraging predators (carabids), potentially affecting intraguild ...
-
(2011)The impact of recent habitat fragmentation on population genetic diversity and structure has often been studied, mainly related to anthropogenic causes; however its long-term effect has been much less evaluated. In this ...
-
(2007)Forest fragmentation alters plant-animal interactions, including herbivory. Relying manipulative experiments, we test if the reduction in insect herbivory associated with forest fragmentation translates into increased ...
-
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2015)Anthropogenic habitat disturbance is a strong biodiversity change driver that compromises not only the species persistence but also the ecological interactions in which they are involved. Even though seed dispersal is a ...
-
(Oxford Univ Press, 2015)Landscape fragmentation is often a major cause of species extinction as it can affect a wide variety of ecological processes. The impact of fragmentation varies among species depending on many factors, including their ...
-
(Springer, 2015)Disentangling the relative effects of forest loss versus fragmentation on species distribution and abundance is crucial for adopting efficient biodiversity conservation actions, which could change with the nature of the ...
-
(2013)Mediterranean-type ecosystems are one of the most affected environments by habitat loss and fragmentation due to urban development, however only few studies have evaluated the effects of urbanization on the biodiversity ...
