Roads can constrain movements of individuals and consequently gene flow across landscape. There is a consensus among experts that some species show road surface and width... -
Especies exóticas invasoras: diagnóstico y bases para la prevención y el manejo.
A pesar que en España se han iniciado alguna estrategias regionales o locales para la prevención y manejo de las especies invasoras, no existe hasta la fecha una estrategia... -
Do roads alter the trophic behavior of the mesocarnivore community living clo...
Roads have impacts on the fauna arising from habitat fragmentation, roadkill and the barrier effect. Furthermore, roads lead species to change their activity with repercussions... -
Wildlife roadkills and underpass use in Northern Spain.
Simultaneous monitoring of wild mammal roadkills and underpass use was conducted for two years along two neighboring highways in Navarre (Northern Spain).... -
Measures applied to mitigate habitat fragmentation in Spain.
The PanEuropean Strategy for the Conservation of Biological Diversity identifies habitat fragmentation as the main cause of biodiversity loss in Europe. The expansion of urban... -
Vegetation structure and prey abundance requirements of the iberian lynx: imp...
Habitat alteration and fragmentation are two of the greatest threats to biodiversity. The conservation of most species in highly encroached areas requires reserves that are... -
The link between roadkills distribution and the surrounding landscape in two ...
A research on wildlife road-kills, mostly medium-sized mammals, has been conducted for two years along two highways (namely A-15 and A-10) in the Euro Siberian area of northwest... -
Mortalidad de vertebrados en el tramo Ourense-Penalba de la CN-120 durante 1989.

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... -
Changes in plant species composition and litter production in response to roa...
Road density has increased in the Canary Islands' forests during the last century, affecting an unknown amount of forested area. We studied road effects on vegetation in the... -

Little owls (Athene noctua) were censused 200 times at night with the aid of a light intensifier along a 40 km road-transect which ran across habitats allowing enough... -
Risky wandering close to the railway: flight behavior of birds across the pla...
Running trains kill birds, and this problem is foreseeable larger in high speed railways (HSRs). However, HSRs have been planned and built over years with scant knowledge of... -
