Noise pollution mapping approach and accuracy on landscape scales.
Noise mapping allows the characterization of environmental variables, such as noise pollution or soundscape, depending on the task. Strategic noise mapping (as per Directive... -
Soil development at the roadside: a case study of a novel ecosystem.
Over the last few decades, road construction has increased dramatically, and new surfaces have appeared in most landscapes. Standard roadside reclamation practices often fail,... -
Road mortality of the little owl (Athene noctua) in Spain.
Causes of little owl road mortality were investigated, based on 418 road casualties and their relation to road characteristics and roadside cover. Road casualties are the most... -
The lost road: do transportation networks imperil wildlife population persistence?
The global road network is rapidly growing associated with human economic development. This growth also entails a high toll for biodiversity, with several well-documented... -
Impact of culvert flooding on carnivore crossings.
Along many roads worldwide, drainage culverts are the only structures wildlife can safely use to cross. However, culverts inundate and can become unavailable to terrestrial... -
Using remote-sensing to map suitable road verges for a rare small mammal,...
The Cabrera vole (Microtus cabrerae) is a rare Iberian endemism, classified as “Near-threatened” by IUCN, and “Vulnerable” in Portugal and Spain. The species has a restricted... -
Roads as drivers of population spreading: the case study of bee-eaters in Doñana.
In this study, we found that bee-eaters spread to theoretically suboptimal habitats to excavate their nests and colonize new areas. Studying this possible life strategy that can... -
