Influence of landscape structure on stink bug and their adult parasitoid populations on soybean culture
The simplification of the agricultural landscape affects trophic interactions, impacting on biological pest control. On a field scale, this...

Spatial and temporal scales of landscape structure affect the biodiversity-landscape relationship across ecologically distinct species groups
ContextThe effects of landscape structure on biodiversity may change with the spatial and temporal scale at which landscape structure is measured....

Landscape Structure, Functions and Biodiversity
The concept of landscapes, such as agricultural landscapes, landscape approaches, landscape scale, cultural landscapes, and multifunctional...

Landscape structure is a key driver of soil protist diversity in meadows in the Swiss Alps
ContextHuman-induced changes in landscape structure are among the main causes of biodiversity loss. Despite their important contribution to...
-
Landscape homogenisation and simplified butterfly community structure go on par across Northern Austria
ContextAgricultural intensification has led to strong homogenization of landscapes. Field copses have become larger, the boundaries between habitats...

Structure of the assemblage of fruit-feeding butterflies in a high Andean anthropogenic landscape
The high Andean mountains are ecosystems subject to high human pressure activities, resulting in disturbed areas increasingly dominating the...

Landscape structure does not hinder the dispersal of an invasive herbivorous mammal in the New Caledonian biodiversity hotspot
Biological invasions are a major threat to biodiversity and have particularly devastating impacts on island ecosystems. The New Caledonia archipelago...

Effective dispersal and genetic structure of a small mammal in an intensively managed agricultural landscape: is there any barrier to movement?
Dispersal and gene flow are key processes for the persistence of populations, because they enable the maintenance of large effective population sizes...

Landscape anthropization explains the genetic structure of an endemic Mexican bird (Thryophilus sinaloa: Troglodytidae) across the tropical dry forest biodiversity hotspot
ContextTropical dry forests (TDFs) are one of the richest and also one of the most threatened ecosystems in the world due to anthropization. In...

Landscape structure has a weak influence on the parasite richness of an arboreal folivorous–frugivorous primate in anthropogenic landscapes
ContextEnvironmental change can affect the ecology and behavior of host and parasite species and modulate the composition of within-host parasite...

Impacts of urban-rural integration on landscape patterns and their implications for landscape sustainability: The case of Changsha, China
ContextLandscape patterns result from complex social-ecological interactions, such as urban-rural integration which is especially notable in China....

Land-use pattern and landscape structure impact butterfly diversity and abundance in organic agroecosystems
ContextAgricultural intensification and land-use patterns impact biodiversity and reduce ecosystem functions. Organic farming is often seen as a more...

Performing Landscape
This article describes the redefinition of landscape in relation to current transformation of cartography and speculative design.

From the local landscape organization to land abandonment: an analysis of landscape changes (1956–2017) in the Aísa Valley (Spanish Pyrenees)
ContextThe Mediterranean mountains have witnessed the revegetation of former pasture and cultivated fields since the mid-20th century. The process...

Landscape connection and patch complexity explain plant community similarity in sandy grasslands better than habitat amount and landscape heterogeneity via network analysis
Based on the island biogeography theory and the habitat amount hypothesis, species richness and alpha diversity increase with an increase in...

Differing responses of native and non-native slugs (Mollusca: Gastropoda) to local vegetation structure and landscape composition in cool-temperate forested wetlands
Slugs are fungivores, herbivores, carnivores and decomposers that provide important ecosystem services and disservices in natural and disturbed...

Owner attitudes and landscape parameters drive stand structure and valuable habitats in small-scale private forests of Lower Saxony (Germany)
Small-scale private forests cover large areas in Europe and often contain structures and habitats of high nature conservation value that are...

Present and historical landscape structure shapes current species richness in Central European grasslands
ContextCurrent diversity and species composition of ecological communities can often not exclusively be explained by present land use and landscape...

Aesthetically Performed Landscape Criticism
The role of landscape analysis in a professional planning situation is to convey a common, imagined, future landscape. To represent the complexity of...

Landscape Planning Policy as a Measure of Implementation of the European Landscape Convention
The paper asks whether and to what extent the Italian planning system conforms to the European Landscape Convention’s objectives and rationale. To do...
