Surveying drainage culvert use by carnivores: sampling design and cost-benefi...
Environmental assessment studies often evaluate the effectiveness of drainage culverts as habitat linkages for species, however, the efficiency of the sampling designs and the... -
Enhancing wildlife conservation in road corridors by applying best maintenanc...
Road maintenance provides us excellent opportunities to reduce road’s impacts on wildlife as well as road-wildlife hazards. Mitigation measures maintenance also play a key role... -
Roadkill as a threat to global mammal conservation.
The ongoing expansion of the global road network and the associated growth in traffic intensity represent a threat for many vertebrate species. With 25 million kilometres of new... -
Incorporating acoustic objectives into Forest Management Planning when sensit...
The potentially negative effects of timber harvesting on biodiversity and habitat conservation leads to the consideration of a wide range of restrictions to forest logging in... -
How many rodents die on the road? Biological and methodological implications ...
Some small mammal species use road verges as a habitat for sheltering. As a result, their populations suffer mortality from roadkill in an unknown extent. We analysed the road... -
Road encroachment mediates species occupancy, trait filtering and dissimilari...
Assessing the road effects on biodiversity is challenging because impacts may depend on both wildlife responses to roads and on the spatial arrangement of roads. We questioned... -

Railways as barriers for wildlife: current knowledge.
In this chapter we provide practical suggestions, together with examples, to identify, monitor and mitigate railway barrier effects on wildlife, as this is considered one of the... -
The impact of river fragmentation on the population persistence of native and...
The genetic diversity of feral and ranch American mink was studied in order to detect gene flux among rivers, investigate the processes of invasion, and determine the possible... -
Movement re-established but not restored: inferring the effectiveness of road...
Wildlife crossing structures are commonly used to mitigate the barrier and mortality impacts of roads on wildlife. For arboreal mammals, canopy bridges, glider poles and... -
Are largescale citizen science data precise enough to determine roadkill patt...
Roads are one of the most transforming linear infrastructures in human-dominated landscapes, with animal road-kills as their most studied impact. Therefore, there is the need to... -

Noise pollution in national parks: soundscape and economic valuation.
In this study a national park soundscape characterisation was contrasted with an economic estimation of the impact of noise pollution on the park visitors’ perception. The main... -

Species-specific movement traits and specialization determine the spatial res...
The barrier effect is a pervasive impact of road networks. For many small mammals individual avoidance responses can be the mechanism behind the barrier effect. However, little... -
The responses of leaf litter invertebrates to environmental gradients along r...
Knowledge of how roads affect forest biodiversity can be improved by measuring the responses of indicator species to complex environmental gradients caused by these... -
Inappropriate tourist behavior in protected areas can lead to wildlife road-k...
Tourism in protected areas is increasingly important to the economy of environmentally vulnerable countries. However, when pursuing sustainable tourism in protected areas,... -
