Assessing the effects of road type and position on the road on small mammal c...
Roadkill estimates can be heavily biased due to variable carcass persistence time. If not adequately considered, this bias may lead to incorrect management actions. We designed... -
Habitat fragmentation affects culture transmission: patterns of song matching...
1 Males of many bird species match song with neighbours during territorial interactions. Although bird vocal mimicry has received much attention, the relationships between song... -
GPS-based real-time application to warn drivers of high risk of animal-vehicl...
A wide range of mitigation measures have been proposed and tested to reduce the number of animal-vehicle collision (AVC). These mitigation measures work at different spatial... -
Comentarios acerca de la mortalidad en carreteras de la lagartija roquera (Po...
Observations on the spatial distribution of Podarcis muralis kills by road casualties. Observaciones sobre la distribución espacial de atropellos de la lagartija roquera... -
Effects of linear infrastructures on the composition of local vertebrate scav...
Vertebrate scavengers provide an essential ecosystem service through the removal of carrion in natural landscapes, including wildlife casualties caused by linear infrastructures... -
Improvements in high-speed rail network environmental evaluation and planning...
High Speed Rail (HSR) in Spain began in 1992 and curently has a network of about 3400 km. In this 25-year period, accessibility has progressively increased, and its spatial... -
Soil development at the roadside: a case study of a novel ecosystem.
Over the last few decades, road construction has increased dramatically, and new surfaces have appeared in most landscapes. Standard roadside reclamation practices often fail,... -
Twenty years of road ecology: a topical collection looking forward for new pe...
The European Journal of Wildlife Research introduces a new Topical Collection focused on Road Ecology. This Topical Collection aims to be a useful tool for the development of... -
Mortalidad de vertebrados por atropello en las riberas del Miño en Orense.
Vertebrate mortality due to car collision is investigated in two roads: a 12-km stretch in a 40-year old road (OR-402) and a 17-km stretch in a one-year old road (CN-120) close... -
Road verges are refuges for small mammal populations in extensively managed M...
Understanding how roads affect the persistence of animal populations is one of the challenges of road ecology. Small mammals are of great interest on account of their value as... -

Assessing highway permeability for the restoration of landscape connectivity ...
Some highways were built in the Basque country before environmental impact assessment processes required the implementation of wildlife crossing structures. Some highway sectors... -
No evidence of a threshold in traffic volume affecting road-kill mortality at...
Previous studies have found that the relationship between wildlife road mortality and traffic volume follows a threshold effect on low traffic volume roads. We aimed at... -
Estimating roadkill risk when there is no roadkill data.
The most common way to quantify roadkill risk in different sections of infrastructures is to collect information on the location of casualties and then, model the probability... -
Spatial patterns of road mortality of medium–large mammals in Mato Grosso do ...
Context Brazil has one of the richest biodiversity and one of the most extensive road networks in the world. Several negative impacts emerge from this interaction, including... -

Analysis and management of current road traffic noise.
Road traffic noise is one of the major environmental pollutants in cities around the world that continues to increase over the years despite the implementation of regulatory... -
Predicting spatiotemporal patterns of road mortality for medium-large mammals.
We modelled the spatiotemporal patterns of road mortality for seven medium-large mammals, using a roadkill dataset from Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil (800 km of roads surveyed... -
Fragmentación de hábitat y biodiversidad en las mesetas ibéricas: una perspec...
El estudio a largo plazo de los efectos de la fragmentación del hábitat en un mismo territorio tiene dos ventajas: facilita la comprensión de procesos no siempre evidentes en... -
A road mobile mapping device for supervised classification of amphibians on r...
We present the classification results of a supervised algorithm of road images containing amphibians. We used a prototype of a mobile mapping system composed of a scanning...
