Resultados del seguimiento del uso de los pasos para fauna por parte de...
Los pasos se localizan en puntos de la carretera A-494 (entre Matalascañas y la A-49) donde se había registrado una incidencia relativamente alta de atropellos. El seguimiento... -
The effects of a motorway on movement behaviour and gene flow in a forest...
Roads represent barriers to animal movement due to physical obstruction, mortality, or behavioural avoidance. The population-level consequences of such constraints remain poorly... -
A review of searcher efficiency and carcass persistence in...
Infrastructures in natural areas are expanding rapidly worldwide. Consequently, roads, power-lines, and wind-farms cause millions of fatalities across several animal groups.... -

El efecto barrera en poblaciones de Lobo en Castilla-León.
Entre 1997 y 1999 estudiamos la influencia sobre los lobos (Canis lupus) de una autopista vallada de cuatro carriles sin pasos específicos para la fauna salvaje en un entorno... -
Landscape connectivity estimates are affected by spatial resolution, habitat...
Connectivity assessments and corridor delineation are key contributions to landscape management and biodiversity conservation. We examined the influence of three potentially... -
Informe provisional del seguimiento de la mortalidad de vertebrados en las...
Se inspeccionaron semanalmente cinco carreteras locales y una nacional. Además, se recogieron datos sobre otras carreteras. Las aves fueron los taxones más afectados (53%.... -
Influence of anthropogenic noise for predicting cinereous vulture nest distribution.
Natural landscapes are increasingly under anthropogenic pressures, and concern about human impacts on wildlife populations is becoming particularly relevant in the case of... -
Habitat quality predicts the distribution of a lizard in fragmented...
Organisms often face a higher risk of local extinction in fragmented than in continuous habitat. However, whether populations are affected by reduced size and connectivity of... -
Woody colonization of road embankments: a large spatial scale survey in...
Planting of woody species is a commonly used method to restore road embankments. Given the importance of road verges as potential corridors and refuge for biodiversity, natural... -
On-board video recording unravels bird behavior and mortality produced by...
Large high-speed railway (HSR) networks are planned for the near future to accomplish increased transport demand with low energy consumption. However, high-speed trains produce... -
Fine-scale determinants of vertebrate roadkills across a biodiversity...
An increasing number of wildlife-vehicle collisions occur each year worldwide, which involves extensive economic costs and constitutes one of the main anthropogenic causes of... -
Predictive models for the location of animal-car accidents and their...
Many provinces in Spain are suffering an increasing number of animal-car collisions in the recent years so as to become one of the main issues to the official bodies with... -
Perspectiva histórica de los estudios de impacto ambiental de las carreteras...
Una perspectiva histórica de los estudios de EIA. Hasta 1991 únicamente los grupos ecologistas dedicaron esfuerzos en España a la obtención de datos sobre el impacto de las... -
Vertebrate road-kill patterns in Mediterranean habitats: who, when and where.
Road-kill is the most recognized impact of traffic and an important threat for biodiversity. Nevertheless, most research on this topic deals with particular species or with road... -
Efectos de la fragmentación de hábitats: el papel de las infraestructuras de...
Los cambios en el uso del suelo (cambios en los tipos de cultivo, deforestación, reforestación, desarrollo, obras públicas, etc.) suelen implicar una fragmentación cada vez... -
Wire marking results in a small but significant reduction in avian mortality...
Collision with electric power lines is a conservation problem for many bird species. Although the implementation of flight diverters is rapidly increasing, few well-designed... -
Carnivore abundance near motorways related to prey and roadkills.
Landscape disturbance by roads may increase abundance of prey in verges (i.e., strips of terrain adjacent to roadways) or create other features that can attract carnivores and... -
Road edge effect on the abundance of the lizard Gallotia galloti (Sauria:...
Transportation infrastructure is a main cause of environmental change in forest landscapes worldwide. In the Canary Islands, a dense road system fragment the native Canarian... -
Are protected areas truly protected? The impact of road traffic on vertebrate fauna.
The extension of road networks is considered one of the major factors affecting fauna survival. Roadkill has been documented widely and affects all taxonomic groups. Although...
