How do alien plants distribute along roads on oceanic islands? A case study i...
Islands are paradigms of the pervasive spread of alien plants, but little work has been done assessing pattern and cause of the distribution of such plants in relation to roads... -
A new large-scale index (AcED) for assessing traffic noise disturbance on wil...
Anthropogenic noise is a growing ubiquitous and pervasive pollutant as well as a recognised stressor that spreads throughout natural ecosystems. However, there is still an... -
Effect of weekend road traffic on the use of space by raptors.
The traffic load near large cities may show dramatic cyclical changes induced by weekend tourism, and this could induce cyclical changes in the activity patterns of wildlife. We... -
La repercusión del tráfico en carreteras sobre las rapaces.
Diurnal raptors use roads to feed on carcasses (victims of traffic as well), while nocturnal raptors use roads mainly to feed on their usual preys. Diurnal raptors are killed on... -

Road alteration of species interactions.
We know little about how roads alter the natural flow of ecosystems and the relationships between its components. Our literature review shows how some interactions have been... -
Vegetation structure and prey abundance requirements of the iberian lynx: imp...
Habitat alteration and fragmentation are two of the greatest threats to biodiversity. The conservation of most species in highly encroached areas requires reserves that are... -
Biodiversity and Green infrastructure in Europe: boundary object or ecologica...
The concept of green infrastructure is widely used in environmental planning, but so far it has no standard definition. Planners, conservationists and scientists tend to welcome... -
Differences in the response of ACV with wildlife and livestock species during...
COVID-19 lockdowns provided a unique opportunity to study the interaction between humans and wildlife. The decrease of human presence in the territory, for example, by reducing... -
Bats and invertebrates provide evidence of ecoducts’ role as key elements of ...
Large overpasses, called ecoducts or green bridges, are considered one of the best options for providing ecological connections across linear transport infrastructures. In... -
Informe provisional del seguimiento de la mortalidad de vertebrados en las ca...
Collection of data on vertebrate mortality on roads of Cantabria (N Spain). Proportion of deaths among taxa: mammals (50%), birds (38%), reptiles (9%), and amphibians (3%). Most... -

COVID-19 related travel restrictions prevented numerous wildlife deaths on roads: a comparative analysis of results from 11 countries. -
Effects of roads on European badger occurrence in intensively used Mediterran...
Understanding how transportation infrastructure affects wildlife is a key goal in conservation biology. This goal is particularly relevant in intensively used landscapes, where... -

Traffic noise pollution does not influence habitat selection in the endangere...
Traffic noise is an associated effect of roads, potentially impacting wildlife. In the case of birds, it may alter spatial distribution, behavioural responses and physiological... -
Facilitating permeability of landscapes impacted by roads for protected amphi...
Amphibian populations are highly vulnerable to road mortality and habitat fragmentation caused by road networks. Wildlife road tunnels are considered the most promising road... -
Photoactive roadways: determination of CO, NO and VOC uptake coefficients and...
This work reports uptake coefficients and by-product yields of ozone precursors onto two photocatalytic paving materials (asphalt and concrete) treated with a commercial TiO2... -
Informe provisional del seguimiento de la mortalidad de vertebrados en las ca...
Several local and national roads as well as two highways were surveyed, being birds (37%) and amphibians (37%) the most affected taxa. Species were run over depending on their... -
Mortandad de anfibios en carreteras de la provincia de Pontevedra.
Survey of vertebrate mortality in a 13-km road stretch in Pontevedra province (NW Spain). Only amphibians were recorded. Un inventario de la mortalidad de vertebrados en un... -
