Recent changes in landscape structure and function in a Mediterranean region ...
Changes in landscape patterns are analysed in two areas of southern Spain during the second half of the 20th century. There was a general trend of the human population to... -
Behavioral responses of the European mink in the face of different threats: c...
Prey species assess the risk of threat using visual, olfactory, and acoustic cues from their habitat. Thus, they modify their behavior in order to avoid encounters with... -
The lost road: do transportation networks imperil wildlife population persist...
The global road network is rapidly growing associated with human economic development. This growth also entails a high toll for biodiversity, with several well-documented... -
Testing wild plants seed mixtures along grey infrastructures.
Linear infrastructures, like roads and railways, exist all around the world and spread throughout a great variety of environments. Despite their known negative impacts, these... -
An approach to road networks and soundscapes.
Roads and traffic are the most important source of noise in the environment. Moreover, much research effort has been aimed to identify and to quantify road impacts on animal... -
Wolf response to two kinds of barriers in an agricultural habitat in Spain.
We examined the effect of two kinds of barriers on an expanding gray wolf, Canis lupus L., 1758, population in an agricultural habitat in north-central Spain. The barriers were... -
Living on the verge: are roads a more suitable refuge for small mammals than ...
Retaining natural remnant corridors of habitat is a useful and practical conservation tool, which can attenuate the effects of habitat loss and fragmentation on wildlife. By... -
Patterns of amphibian fatalities in a Mediterranean landscape: insights from ...
Amphibian fatalities were monitored on the local road M1078 (of total length 7.1 k m) that runs across a rural Mediterranean landscape in the Alentejo region (Southern Portugal)... -
Magnitude, composition and spatiotemporal patterns of vertebrate roadkill at ...
Although roadkill studies on a large scale are challenging, they can provide valuable information to assess the impact of road traffic on animal populations. Over 22 months... -
Wildlife–vehicle collision mitigation: Is partial fencing the answer? An agen...
Evaluating management options for mitigating the impacts of wildlife–vehicle collisions (WVC) is a major goal for road ecology. Fencing along roads in conjunction with the... -
Influence of landscape factors on amphibian roadkills at the national level.
Roads exert multiple effects on wildlife, from animal mortality, habitat and population fragmentation, to modification of animal reproductive behaviour. Amphibians are the most... -
Informe provisional del seguimiento de la mortalidad de vertebrados en las ca...
On a weekly basis, five local and one national roads were surveyed. Moreover, data on other roads were collected. Birds were the most affected taxa (53%. Passer domesticus,... -
Conservation status and farmland requirements of pin-tailed sandgrouse Pteroc...
It is discussed how agricultural practices and, consequently, changes in land use influence the distribution of sandgrouse species. -

Metodología y resultados del proyecto de seguimiento de la mortalidad de vert...
Description of the methodology employed in the survey of vertebrate mortality by roads in peninsular Spain, Canary Islands and Baleary Islands until july 1992. N= 41955... -
Wildlife-vehicle collisions in Spain.
Wildlife-vehicle collisions (WVC) are important in wildlife management due to their increasing socioeconomic impacts and pervasive effect on some endangered species. In this... -
