Ecosystem decay exacerbates biodiversity loss with habitat loss

Nature, 2020
Although habitat loss is the predominant factor leading to biodiversity loss in the Anthropocene1,2, exactly how this loss manifests-and at which scales-remains a central debate3-6. The 'passive sampling' hypothesis suggests that species are lost in proportion to their abundance and distribution in the natural habitat7,8, whereas the 'ecosystem decay ...

A Massive Loss of Habitat

Sociology of Development, 2016
The paper examines three emergent migration flows, each with specific features that can be described as extreme. The effort organizing the paper is to understand conditions at places of origin that lead people to risk their lives in dangerous trips to escape those places of origin.

Deforestation and habitat loss

1992
The Earth’s vegetation patterns are highly dynamic, and within the past million years they have changed considerably in response to changing climates (especially the recurrent Quaternary glaciations, which were associated with relatively cool and dry conditions in the tropical zones).

HABITAT LOSS

Abstract Habitat loss refers to the disappearance of natural environments that house specific plant and animal species. Habitat loss encompass three main types: habitat destruction, degradation, and fragmentation. Habitat destruction involves extensive devastation of natural environments, habitat degradation results from the depletion

Habitat loss

1995
Abstract There is widespread concern over the damage that humans are inflicting upon the environment. One of the consequences of this is a reduction in area of various habitats. Further habitat loss may be expected due to processes such as industrial development, agricultural intensification, deforestation, and sea level rise. There is a

Habitat Loss, Fragmentation, and Restoration

Restoration Ecology, 1999
AbstractThe loss and fragmentation of habitat is a major threat to the continued survival of many species. We argue that, by including spatial processes in restoration management plans, the effects of habitat loss and fragmentation can be offset. Yet few management plans take into account spatial effects of habitat conservation/restoration despite the ...

Species loss after habitat fragmentation

Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2000
Currently, we are losing large areas of natural and seminatural habitats. The big conservation question now is: how far does this habitat loss translate into species loss? Species–area relationships (SAR) describe the increase in the number of species S with increasing area A of a habitat. Generally, SAR obey a power law with an exponent

No Net Loss of Fish Habitat: A Review and Analysis of Habitat Compensation in Canada

Environmental Management, 2005
The achievement of No Net Loss (NNL) through habitat compensation has rarely been assessed in Canada. Files relating to 124 Fisheries Act Section 35(2) authorizations issued by Fisheries and Oceans Canada for the harmful alteration, disruption, and destruction of fish habitat (HADD) were collected and reviewed.
