Abstract The Edge Influence is one of the most pervasive effects of habitat fragmentation, as
many forest remnants in anthropogenic landscapes are within 100 m of edges. Forest …

Edge influence, characterized by differences in ecosystem characteristics between the edge
and the interior of remnants in fragmented landscapes, affects a variety of organisms and …

As one of the main components of forest operations and sustainable management, forest
roads affect the vegetation communities around the road. In this study, the effects of the edge …

Urban greenspaces including remnant patches of vegetation, backyard gardens and public
parks provide important habitat for wildlife conservation. Maintaining and enhancing the …

Transportation infrastructure may be the most important driver of social and economic
development, but it is a major cause of environmental change in landscapes. The main …

Because roads through forested sites may affect the soil invertebrate community within the
forest, we investigated collembolan community structure at various distances from roads …

Road edge effects consist of changes in abiotic and biotic conditions resulting from the new
artificial boundaries on the vegetation that are created by a road. It is known that edge …

Edge effects threaten organisms and ecological processes in habitat remnants, but they
have been poorly studied in non-humid forests such as cerradão, a tropical dry forest …

Sustainable soil management is essential to conserve soil biodiversity and its provision of
vital ecosystem services. The EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2030 highlights the key role of …

Applied road ecology often focus on mitigation of negative impacts of roads on biodiversity
(eg van der Ree et al. 2015), but road ecology also includes positive effects of roads on …
