Habitat loss and discontinuity as drivers of habitat fragmentation: The role of contamination and connectivity of habitats

Environmental Research
Habitat discontinuity of aquatic environments is a serious problem that might hamper the different activities performed by organisms. When combined with contamination, the consequences for the population's dynamics might be exacerbated, particularly regarding foraging activity.

Habitat Fragmentation Research Brief

, 2022
This outline brief was originally a short plan for a habitat fragmentation project for a government department in 2016. After various refinements and contributions from workshops, the brief grew in size. The information here is based on various literature and guidance from NRW in Wales and Natural England. I used the QGIS plugin 'FragScape' for some of

Variation in species' dispersal capacities amplifies effects of habitat loss and fragmentation on biodiversity loss

Ecosphere
Habitat loss and fragmentation can have a substantial impact on biodiversity loss. Modeling studies showing these effects generally work under the implicit assumption that all species in the community have equal dispersal capacities.

Fragmented Habitats, Fragmented Functions: Unveiling the Role of Habitat Structure in Andean Bird Communities

Ecologies
Understanding the processes that shape biodiversity patterns is an important challenge in ecology. Land-use change is often recognized as a pivotal factor influencing biodiversity at large scales, with habitat heterogeneity being one of the most critical drivers of community composition and diversity.

The comparative effects of landscape‐level forest fragmentation, forest area, and habitat on Connecticut bird communities

Ecosphere
I studied how breeding and wintering forest bird communities across Connecticut responded to variation in habitat characteristics, particularly landscape attributes such as forest fragmentation.

Primates in Fragmented Habitats

Annual Review of Anthropology
Forest fragmentation was highlighted as a conservation priority in primatology more than 20 years ago, yet this issue unfortunately remains a key challenge. In this article, I review the literature on primate responses to habitat fragmentation and propose priority areas for future studies.

Habitat amount–fragmentation interactions drive Canada Warbler dynamics across spatial scales

Avian Conservation and Ecology
The Canada Warbler ( Cardellina canadensis ) is a long-distance neotropical migrant that has experienced significant population declines across its range and is listed as threatened in Canada.
