Habitat amount modulates biodiversity responses to fragmentation
Anthropogenic habitat destruction leads to habitat loss and fragmentation, both of which interact to determine how biodiversity changes at the...
-
Influence of habitat fragmentation and habitat amount on soil fungi communities in ancient forests
ContextFungi represent a large part of soil biodiversity as well as an essential role for tree hydromineral nutrition, survival, and carbon cycling....
-
Time-lag effects of habitat loss, but not fragmentation, on deadwood-dwelling lichens
ContextLandscape habitat amount is known to increase biodiversity, while the effects of habitat fragmentation are still debated. It has been...

Habitat Fragmentation and Insect Biodiversity Change in Mexican Landscapes
The long-term and large-scale cause of habitat fragmentation and loss is determined by human intervention, primarily due to the expansion of...

Habitat Fragmentation Impacts on Amazonian Nonvolant Mammals
Habitat loss and fragmentation are primary threats to mammals in the Amazon. In this chapter, we review the extent of forest loss and fragmentation,...

Consequences of Habitat Loss and Fragmentation for Primate Behavioral Ecology
Primates are a particularly sensitive order to the negative effects of habitat loss and fragmentation due to their unique life histories and habitat...

Habitat fragmentation erodes taxonomic and functional diversity of waterbird communities of the South Pacific coast of Mexico
We characterize the taxonomic and functional diversity of waterbird communities in mangrove forests of 23 coastal lagoons in the southern Mexican...

Effects of wave exposure and habitat fragmentation on growth and grazing of rocky shore seaweeds: a mesocosm experiment
Seaweeds are foundation species on rocky shores that are exposed to a series of stressors. These include wave exposure, desiccation, grazing, and...

Synergistic effects of habitat fragmentation and hunting on the extinction risk of neotropical primates
Habitat fragmentation and overexploitation of natural resources are the most prevalent and severe threats to biodiversity in tropical forests....
-
The impact of habitat loss and population fragmentation on genomic erosion
Habitat loss and population fragmentation pose severe threats to biodiversity and the survival of many species. Population isolation and the decline...

Impact of Habitat Loss and Fragmentation in Didelphid Marsupials of the Atlantic Forest
There is a current debate about the effect of habitat configuration beyond the effect of habitat loss in fragmented landscapes. In addition, almost...

Influence of the direct and indirect effects of habitat fragmentation, via microclimate change, on animal locomotion
ContextIntensive use of agricultural land often modifies the landscape by dividing continuous natural habitat into smaller and more isolated patches....
-
Plant-frugivore network simplification under habitat fragmentation leaves a small core of interacting generalists
Habitat fragmentation impacts seed dispersal processes that are important in maintaining biodiversity and ecosystem functioning. However, it is still...
-
A global analysis of habitat fragmentation research in reptiles and amphibians: what have we done so far?
Habitat change and fragmentation are the primary causes of biodiversity loss worldwide. Recent decades have seen a surge of funding, published papers...

Impact of Habitat Loss and Fragmentation on Assemblages, Populations, and Individuals of Australasian Marsupials
Australasia is home to many iconic species of marsupials, most found nowhere else. The region also leads the world in marsupial declines and...

The impact of habitat fragmentation on domatia-dwelling mites and a mite-plant-fungus tritrophic interaction
ContextHabitat fragmentation is a leading threat to biodiversity, yet the impacts of fragmentation on most taxa, let alone interactions among those...

Dietary and habitat specialization, eye size, clutch size, and aerial lifestyle predict avian fragmentation sensitivity in an Andean biodiversity hotpot
The fragmentation of tropical forests remains a major driver of avian biodiversity loss, particularly for insectivores, yet the mechanisms underlying...

Impacts of anthropogenic land transformation on species-specific habitat amount, fragmentation, and connectivity in the Adirondack-to-Laurentians (A2L) transboundary wildlife linkage between 2000 and 2015: Implications for conservation and ecological restoration
ContextThe Adirondack-to-Laurentians (A2L) transboundary wildlife linkage is one of three north–south movement linkages that connect natural areas in...
