Multiple habitat associations: the role of offsite habitat in determining onsite avian species density [PDF]

, 2012
Many animal populations continue to decline despite occurring in protected areas or on sympathetically managed sites. Frequently, this is because a specific habitat patch may not fulfil all the niche requirements of a threatened species.

Livestock production land and conservation areas play a complementary role in the conservation of a critically endangered grassland bird

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, 2022
In many parts of the world, livestock production and biodiversity conservation are important land uses of native grasslands in agricultural landscapes. Approaches to managing grasslands typically differ between production farms and conservation areas as ...

Incorporating spatio-temporal connectivity for prioritized conservation of individual habitat patches in a dynamic landscape

Ecological Indicators, 2021
Habitat fragmentation has largely reduced biodiversity in the urban fringe. The prioritization of individual habitat patches can provide spatially explicit guidance for ecological conservation and restoration. Numerous studies discussed the effectiveness

Are hedgerows effective corridors between fragments of woodland habitat? An evidence-based approach [PDF]

, 2007
Anthropogenic modification of the countryside has resulted in much of the landscape consisting of fragments of once continuous habitat. Increasing habitat connectivity at the landscape-scale has a vital role to play in the conservation of species ...

Spatial priority conservation areas for vegetation habitat across the Upper Reaches of Min River located in Sichuan Province, China

Global Ecology and Conservation, 2019
Considered as a hotspot for biodiversity in the upstream of Yangtze River, many vegetation habitats have been seriously damaged in Upper Reaches of Min River located in Sichuan Province, China due to the continuous deterioration of ecosystems.

Application of habitat thresholds in conservation: Considerations, limitations, and future directions

Global Ecology and Conservation, 2015
Habitat thresholds are often interpreted as the minimum required area of habitat, and subsequently promoted as conservation targets in natural resource policies and planning.
