No evidence of a threshold in traffic volume affecting road-kill mortality at...
Previous studies have found that the relationship between wildlife road mortality and traffic volume follows a threshold effect on low traffic volume roads. We aimed at... -
The effects of forest fragmentation on butterfly communities in central Spain.
In a mosaic landscape in Guadalajara province (central Spain) butterfly diversity was positively correlated with the area of woodland fragments and negatively correlated with... -
Mapping and monitoring large mammal underpasses on motorway A29.
In Greece, the brown bear (Ursus arctos) is a priority species listed in Annex II and IV of the EU Habitats Directive (92/43/EEC) and thus, it is implied that Member States... -
The influence of traffic noise on vertebrate road crossing through underpasses.
Noise produces multiple effects on ecosystems and it influences habitat use by vertebrates near roads. Thus, it may reduce the effectiveness of mitigation measures installed on... -

Spatial–temporal patterns in mediterranean carnivore road casualties: consequ...
Many carnivores have been seriously impacted by the expansion of transportation systems and networks; however we know little about carnivore response to the extent and magnitude... -
Factors determining roadkills in a mammal carnivore are road type specific.
Carnivores are one of the most affected taxa by roadkill of their high mobility searching for food, mate or territory. We compared 85 polecat roadkills in highways with 73... -
Spatial patterns of road kills: a case study in Southern Portugal.
Roads promote high levels of animal-vehicle collisions and have one of the most visible man-made impacts on wildlife. In Portugal, SW Europe, very few ecological studies have... -
Effects of woodland islets introduced in a Mediterranean agricultural landsca...
This study assesses whether the afforestation approach consisting in the introduction of woodland islets in “agricultural seas” can reconcile the restoration of woody vegetation... -
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... -
