How do Changes in Land Use Patterns Affect Species Diversity? an Approach for Optimizing Landscape Configuration [PDF]
Heterogeneity of agricultural landscapes is supposed to be of significant importance for species diversity in agroecosystems (Weibull et al. 2003). Thus it is necessary to account for structural aspects of landscapes in land management decision processes.

Modelled habitat suitability of fungi in floodplains
To maximize restoration efforts, knowledge on habitat key structures and potential for species occurrence is crucial for conservation. Contemporary protected areas such as national parks and nature reserves can provide refugia for fungal species. Still, the relative importance of single areas might vary across species, especially as they might have ...
