Accelerating urbanization has led to the shrinkage of natural habitats, intensification landscape fragmentation, reduction cropland and forest areas, degradation biodiversity. Against this background, considering ecological corridors are important linear structures connected habitat patches, helping enhance urban resilience protect A growing number studies focus on identifying potential evaluat...

The ability of populations to be connected across large landscapes via dispersal is critical to long-term viability for many species. One means to mitigate population isolation is the protection of movement corridors among habitat patches. Nevertheless, the utility of small, narrow, linear features as habitat corridors has been hotly debated. Here, we argue that analysis of movement across cont...

Questions Habitat isolation is a major driver of biodiversity as it affects dispersal among local communities, especially for plants. Corridors are supposed to facilitate the movement organisms and hence their effective dispersal, thereby increasing biodiversity. Hedgerows provide favorable habitats forest plant establishment, but role in patches still unknown. In addition, seeds can be more pr...

Habitat and ecosystem fragmentation and, consequently, the loss of landscape connectivity are major causes of biodiversity destruction, leading to disruption of material, energy, and information flow at the landscape scale. Given the importance of this issue, the current study aimed to evaluate the ecological connectivity and spatial planning of Qazvin Province, in order to re-establish and pro...

Wildlife corridors are components of landscapes, which facilitate the movement of organisms and processes between intact habitat areas, and thus provide connectivity between the habitats within the landscapes. Corridors are thus regions within a given landscape that connect fragmented habitat patches within the landscape. The major concern of designing corridors as a conservation strategy is pr...

Habitat fragmentation leads to isolation and reduce habitat areas, in addition to a series of negative effects on natural populations, affecting richness, abundance and distribution of animal species. In such a context, habitat corridors serve as an alternative for connectivity in fragmented landscapes, minimizing the effects of structural isolation of different habitat areas. This study evalua...

As the climate changes, human land use may impede species from tracking areas with suitable climates. Maintaining connectivity between areas of different temperatures could allow organisms to move along temperature gradients and allow species to continue to occupy the same temperature space as the climate warms. We used a coarse-filter approach to identify broad corridors for movement between a...
