Surface metrics: an alternative to patch metrics for the quantification of landscape structure
Modern landscape ecology is based on the patch mosaic paradigm, in which landscapes are conceptualized and analyzed as mosaics of discrete patches. While this model has been widely success- ful, there are many situations where it is more meaningful to model landscape structure based on continuous rather than discrete spatial heterogeneity.

Plant–pollinator metanetworks in fragmented landscapes: a simulation study
Background The topology of the plant–pollinator network can be explained by the species’ abundance and their random interactions. Plant–pollinator networks can be studied in the context of a landscape, because each patch can accommodate a certain local ...

Does land use and landscape contribute to self-harm? A sustainability cities framework [PDF]
Self-harm has become one of the leading causes of mortality in developed countries. The overall rate for suicide in Canada is 11.3 per 100,000 according to Statistics Canada in 2015.

Advancing Texture Metrics to Model Landscape Heterogeneity [PDF]
We advance methods to study landscape heterogeneity and assess the suitability of these methods to detect boundary regions between land cover types. We employ 2nd-order texture metrics on continuous and on discrete vegetation data in North Eurasia and on a smaller region therein.
