For this article, I reviewed empirical studies finding significant ecological responses to
habitat fragmentation per se—in other words, significant responses to fragmentation …

Increasing urban green and blue structure is often pointed out to be critical for sustainable
development and climate change adaptation, which has led to the rapid expansion of …

The ability to identify regions of high functional connectivity for multiple wildlife species is of
conservation interest with respect to habitat management and corridor planning. We present …

Because many large mammal species have wide geographical ranges, spatially distant
populations may be confronted with different sets of environmental conditions. Investigating …

The establishment of protected areas is a key strategy for preserving biodiversity. However,
human use of protected areas can cause disturbance to wildlife, especially in areas that …

Variation in the physical characteristics of the environment should impact the movement
energetics of animals. Although cognizance of this may help interpret movement ecology …

The geographic range of the blacklegged tick, Ixodes scapularis, is expanding northward
from the United States into southern Canada, and studies suggest that the lone star tick …

The landscape is an ideal spatial extent for managing forests because many ecological
processes and disturbances occur on such scales. Moreover, landscape-level decision …

Core areas are often employed in space-use studies to emphasize sections of a home range
where an animal supposedly concentrates its time spent (ie, areas of intense use). The area …

Broad‐scale ecological research on species distributions commonly presumes that the
