The Fractal Dimension as a Measure of the Quality of Habitats
Acta Biotheoretica, 2004Habitat fragmentation produces isolated patches characterized by increased edge effects from an originally continuous habitat. The shapes of these patches often show a high degree of irregularity: their shapes deviate significantly from regular geometrical shapes such as rectangular and elliptical ones.

A review of approaches for classifying benthic habitats and evaluating habitat quality
Journal of Environmental Management, 2004We have assessed the current state of knowledge relative to methods used in assessing sub-tidal benthic habitat quality and the classification of benthic habitats. While our main focus is on marine habitat, we extensively draw on knowledge gained in freshwater systems where benthic assessment procedures are at an advanced stage of maturity.

We explore a spatially implicit patch-occupancy model of a population on a landscape with continuous-valued heterogeneous habitat quality, primarily considering the case where the habitat quality of a site affects the mortality rate but not the fecundity of individuals at that site.

Assessing Habitat Quality for a Migratory Songbird Wintering in Natural and Agricultural Habitats
Conservation Biology, 2006Abstract: As tropical forests are cleared, a greater proportion of migratory songbirds are forced to winter in agricultural and disturbed habitats, which, if poorer in quality than natural forests, could contribute to population declines. We compared demographic indicators of habitat quality for a focal species,

Naturalness-based habitat quality of the Hungarian (semi-)natural habitats
Acta Botanica Hungarica, 2008Effective conservation of (semi-)natural habitats needs knowledge on the naturalness, the actual quality of a habitat or vegetation patch. Nevertheless, there are only a few studies have been published in this topic so far. During the META project, between 2002–2005, we have surveyed the semi-natural vegetation of Hungary and assessed the naturalness ...

Impact of Renewable Energy Installations on Habitat Quality
2020In all the disciplines referring to environmental protection, the reference to ecosystem services (ES) is widely increasing. The growing awareness of climate change and the recognized need to secure energy production has been a driving force behind the expansion of the Renewable Energy Sources (RES) and their technologies.
