Analysis of Tropical Forest Landscape Fragmentation in Batang Toru Watershed, North Sumatra

open access: yesJurnal Manajemen Hutan Tropika, 2014
Timber-based forest management is now shifting to as broader scope including ecosystem-based management. Timber-oriented forest management frequently affects the fragmentation of forest landscape.

How Three Decades of Forestation Has Impacted Forest Fragmentation in Southern China

open access: yesRemote Sensing
Forest cover dynamics are studied on a routine basis, but how changes in forest cover impact forest fragmentation has rarely been studied over a long time period resolution.

Effects of local tree diversity on herbivore communities diminish with increasing forest fragmentation on the landscape scale. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Forest fragmentation and plant diversity have been shown to play a crucial role for herbivorous insects (herbivores, hereafter). In turn, herbivory-induced leaf area loss is known to have direct implications for plant growth and reproduction as well as ...

Impact of Fragmentation on Carbon Uptake in Subtropical Forest Landscapes in Zhejiang Province, China

open access: yesRemote Sensing
Global changes cause widespread forest fragmentation, which, in turn, has given rise to many ecological problems; this is especially true if the forest carbon stock is profoundly impacted by fragmentation levels.

Conservation of forest cover in Mesoamerican biosphere reserves is associated with the increase of local non-farm occupation

open access: yesPerspectives in Ecology and Conservation, 2022
Protected areas can prevent forest loss, but their effects on forest fragmentation and forest regrowth are poorly understood. Furthermore, the importance of protected areas in shaping these forest spatial changes may depend on different socioeconomic ...

Conservation: Forest Fragments, Facts, and Fallacies [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2013
Most of the world's remaining habitats are split into small fragments that lose species quickly. Knowledge of this fact can guide practical actions to prevent extinctions.

Forest fragmentation and selective logging have inconsistent effects on multiple animal-mediated ecosystem processes in a tropical forest

open access: yes, 2011
Forest fragmentation and selective logging are two main drivers of global environmental change and modify biodiversity and environmental conditions in many tropical forests.

Insights into forest vegetation changes and landscape fragmentation in Southeastern China: From a perspective of spatial coupling and machine learning

open access: yesEcological Indicators
A comprehensive quantification of the relationships between forest vegetation changes and forest landscape fragmentation is urgently required to provide valuable insights for informed forest management decisions.
