Mortalidad de rapaces en carreteras españolas.
A two-year survey of vertebrate mortality was carried out in Spain, the results showing that 5% of killed animals were raptors. Of these, mostly were nocturnal species (90.92%),... -
The role of remote sensing data in habitat suitability and connectivity model...
Ecological modeling requires sufficient spatial resolution and a careful selection of environmental variables to achieve good predictive performance. Although national and... -
A comparison on the response to forest fragmentation by medium-sized iberian ...
We studied the use of forest fragments by five medium-sized carnivore species in 280 forest fragments on the two Iberian plateaus. We looked for indirect evidence (faeces,... -
Noise pollution mapping approach and accuracy on landscape scales.
Noise mapping allows the characterization of environmental variables, such as noise pollution or soundscape, depending on the task. Strategic noise mapping (as per Directive... -
Dinámica del riesgo de ignición en un área de interfase urbano-forestal.
La aceleración del proceso masivo de urbanización dispersa en zonas de interfase urbano-forestal reafirma la necesidad de aplicar políticas de prevención de los incendios... -
Informe provisional del seguimiento de la mortalidad de vertebrados en las ca...
Preliminary report on vertebrate mortality on roads of Madrid province. Frequency distribution: mammals (65%), birds (30%), reptiles (9%), and amphibians (9%). Many small-sized... -
Dogs are the main species involved in animal-vehicle collisions in southern S...
Animal-vehicle collisions have become a serious traffic safety issue. Collisions have steadily increased over the last few decades, as have their associated socio-economic... -
Why keep areas road‐free? The importance of roadless areas.
Roadless and low‐traffic areas are typically large, natural or semi‐natural areas that have no roads or few roads with low‐traffic volume. They are relatively unaffected by... -
