Comparative landscape genetics of three closely related sympatric Hesperid butterflies with diverging ecological traits. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
To understand how landscape characteristics affect gene flow in species with diverging ecological traits, it is important to analyze taxonomically related sympatric species in the same landscape using identical methods.

Simple individual-based models effectively represent Afrotropical forest bird movement in complex landscapes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Reliable estimates of dispersal rates between habitat patches (i.e. functional connectivity) are critical for predicting long-term effects of habitat fragmentation on population persistence.

Dimensions of integration for landscape connectivity planning: a framework for understanding challenges and opportunities

open access: yesEcology and Society
Road networks and other anthropogenic landscape changes fragment habitats, adversely affecting ecosystems and biodiversity. Landscape connectivity strategies have proven as an effective way of addressing this issue; however, implementation in North ...

Revisiting the effectiveness of biodiversity offsets in coastal wetlands of China through landscape connectivity

open access: yesEcological Indicators
We modified the landscape connectivity calculation method and applied it to assess changes in temporal connectivity under different offsetting scenarios in the Yellow River Delta High-efficiency Ecological Economic Zone of China.

Diffusion Dynamics, Moments, and Distribution of First Passage Time on the Protein-Folding Energy Landscape, with Applications to Single Molecules [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
We study the dynamics of protein folding via statistical energy-landscape theory. In particular, we concentrate on the local-connectivity case with the folding progress described by the fraction of native conformations.

Bio-Energy Connectivity And Ecosystem Services. An Assessment by Pandora 3.0 Model for Land Use Decision Making

open access: yesTeMA: Journal of Land Use, Mobility and Environment, 2014
Landscape connectivity is one of the major issues related to biodiversity conservation and to the delivery of Ecosystem Services (ES). Several models were developed to assess landscape connectivity but lack of data and mismatching scale of analysis often

Connectivity of tiger (Panthera tigris) populations in the human-influenced forest mosaic of Central India. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Today, most wild tigers live in small, isolated Protected Areas within human dominated landscapes in the Indian subcontinent. Future survival of tigers depends on increasing local population size, as well as maintaining connectivity between populations ...

Effects of urban agglomeration and expansion on landscape connectivity in the river valley region, Qinghai-Tibet Plateau

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation, 2022
Urbanization provides benefit to modern civilization, while it also creates a series of ecological issues at different scales. The study of landscape pattern and connectivity change caused by urban agglomeration is the hotspot of regional ecological ...

Role of the unstable directions in the equilibrium and aging dynamics of supercooled liquids

open access: yes, 2000
The connectivity of the potential energy landscape in supercooled atomic liquids is investigated through the calculation of the instantaneous normal modes spectrum and a detailed analysis of the unstable directions in configuration space.
