Mountain roads and non-native species modify elevational patterns of plant diversity.
We investigated patterns of species richness and community dissimilarity along elevation gradients using globally replicated, standardized surveys of vascular plants. We asked... -
Influence of separating home range and dispersal movements on characterizing...
Understanding connectivity patterns in relation to habitat fragmentation is essential to landscape management. However, connectivity is often judged from expert opinion or... -
Fragmentación de bosques y selección de hábitat de un oso pardo (Ursus...
Se rastreó a un oso macho (Ursus arctos) de la pequeña población que vive en las Montañas Cantábricas en un paisaje fragmentado en el que quedaba un 29% de bosque. Este... -
Animal-vehicle collisions: a new cooperative strategy is needed to reduce...
Animal-vehicle collisions are a major issue for traffic safety. Despite the measures applied to reduce the conflict, the numbers of accidents involving wildlife are still... -
Human-caused wildfire risk rating for prevention planning in Spain.
This paper identifies human factors associated with high forest fire risk in Spain and analyses the spatial distribution of fire occurrence in the country. The spatial units... -
El lobo en Asturias.
Se investigaron las causas de mortalidad de 73 lobos entre 1980 y 1986, siendo los atropellos la causa de muerte en un lobo (1,4%). Palabras clave: Siniestralidad con fauna,... -

El lobo en Castilla-León.
Se investigaron las causas de mortalidad de 284 lobos entre 1986 y 1988, siendo los atropellos los responsables del 5,6% de la mortalidad. Palabras clave: Siniestralidad con... -
Auditing and control programs: putting EIA recommendations for ecological...
If we examine the EIA process in different countries, it seems that it is linked to a previous phase of discussion of projects, through the administrative process.This previous... -
