Spatial dynamics of green corridors

2013
Forest management aims at building ecological networks that minimize the impacts on timber production. We formalize the construction of ecological networks in forest environments as the optimal control dynamic graph-theoretic problem. The ecological network is based on a set of bioreserves and patches linked by green corridors.

Green bridges and wildlife corridors in Austria

Zeitschrift für Jagdwissenschaft, 2002
Landscapes and landscape structures that enable the exchange, dispersal and migration of big forest-favouring game species are resources which densly populated Europe is running short of. Two projects in Austria provide information that is needed for the management of this ressource. “Efficient green bridge insertion in Austria” is a project which lead

Ecological Corridors and Green Space in the City of Poznan, Poland

2021
Green space is widely recognized to be key to sustainable urban planning. The basic functional functions of green corridors have been distinguished: noise insulation, absorption of atmospheric pollutants, enhancing biodiversity, improving the microclimate, and improving the visual quality of the cityscape. In contrast to earlier findings, these results

Green Corridors and Watercourses

2017
Smart regeneration should incorporate some consideration of green spaces for Ecosystem Services and human health benefits. Green corridors provide a connective network of variable habitats and perform various Ecosystem Services. Green corridors have good potential to be carbon sinks, but few empirical studies on the plant and soil organic carbon (SOC ...
