Avian trait-mediated vulnerability to road traffic collisions.
Collision with vehicles is an important source of bird mortality, but it is uncertain why some species are killed more often than others. Focusing on passerines, we tested... -
Road effects on demographic traits of small mammal populations.
Recent studies have highlighted the positive effects of road verges on the abundance of small mammals. However, most of these studies occurred in intensively grazed or... -

Roadless and low-traffic areas as conservation targets in Europe.
With increasing road encroachment, habitat fragmentation by transport infrastructures has been a serious threat for European biodiversity. Areas with no roads or little traffic... -
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.
Las rapaces diurnas utilizan las carreteras para alimentarse de los restos de animals atropellados, mientras que las rapaces nocturnas utilizan principalmente para alimentarse... -

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...
La recogida de datos sobre la mortalidad de vertebrados en las carreteras de Cantabria (N España). Las proporciones de mortalidades entre los distintos taxones: mamíferos (50%),... -

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...
