Titel: Lessons Learned in the Field About Habitat Fragmentation.
Autoren: Templeton, Alan R.1 (AUTHOR) temple_a@wustl.edu
Quelle: Israel Journal of Ecology & Evolution. Aug2025, p1-21. 21p.
Schlagwörter: *CONSERVATION biology, *HABITAT conservation, *GENETIC variation, *ECOLOGICAL resilience, *FRAGMENTED landscapes, *RESTORATION ecology, *FIELD research, *PHENOTYPIC plasticity
Abstract: The article focuses on habitat fragmentation and its implications for conservation biology, presenting seven key lessons learned from field studies and management programs. It emphasizes the importance of the surrounding matrix in which fragmented habitats exist, the variability of habitat patches, and the necessity of monitoring life history plasticity in species. The article also discusses how geography can mislead conservation efforts, the complexity of effective population sizes, and the potential for habitat fragmentation to preserve genetic diversity. Ultimately, it concludes that habitat fragmentation can be managed through restoration and informed conservation strategies, highlighting the resilience of fragmented habitats in the face of environmental changes.
