Road effects on species abundance and population trend: a case study on tawny...
Urbanization and its inherent road network are one of the major movements that impulse landscape and biodiversity change, and its effects have yet to be fully understood. Few... -

Use of passages across a canal by wild mammals and related mortality.
From 1993–1998, we monitored a 24.1-km long concrete water canal in northern Spain for drowned mammals. Along the canal, 14 concrete bridges and 9 small bridges permitted... -
Simulating the consequences of roads for wildlife population dynamics.
Rapidly expanding road networks have been a key driver of the fragmentation and isolation of many wildlife species, and are a source of significant mortality due to collisions... -
Spatiotemporal persistence of bat roadkill hotspots in response to dynamics o...
Wildlife roadkill hotspots are frequently used to identify priority locations for implementing mitigation measures. However, understanding the landscape-context and the spatial... -

Infrastructure features outperform environmental variables explaining rabbit ...
Human disturbance is widespread across landscapes in the form of roads that alter wildlife populations. Knowing which road features are responsible for the species response and... -
GPS-based real-time application to warn drivers of high risk of animal-vehicl...
A wide range of mitigation measures have been proposed and tested to reduce the number of animal-vehicle collision (AVC). These mitigation measures work at different spatial... -
The responses of leaf litter invertebrates to environmental gradients along r...
Knowledge of how roads affect forest biodiversity can be improved by measuring the responses of indicator species to complex environmental gradients caused by these... -
Auditing and control programs: putting EIA recommendations for ecological imp...
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... -
El lobo en Castilla-León.
Causes of mortality of 284 wolves between 1986 and 1988 were investigated, road casualties being responsible for 5.6% of deaths. Se investigaron las causas de mortalidad de 284... -

A meta-analysis of carcass disappearance field experiments in conservation bi...
The exponential development of human infrastructures causes mortality in thousands of wildlife species. In order to evaluate its impact in population dynamics, we need to... -
Effectiveness of wildlife crossing structures and adapted culverts in a highw...
An intensive monitoring was carried out between June and September 2002 in different passage types across a highway in NW Spain in order to determine their use by terrestrial... -

Effects of road mortality on mustelids in southern Portugal: sensitivities and management implications. -
Road effects on demographic traits of small mammal populations.
Recent studies have highlighted the positive effects of road verges on the abundance of small mammals. However, most of these studies occurred in intensively grazed or... -
El lobo en Asturias.
Causes of mortality of 73 wolves between 1980 and 1986 were investigated, being road casualties responsible of 1 death (1.4%). Se investigaron las causas de mortalidad de 73... -
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... -
Animal-vehicle collisions: a new cooperative strategy is needed to reduce the...
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...
