Mechanisms underlying the road effects on owls: move towards mitigation.
The negative effects of roads on wildlife are recognized as important contributors to the global biodiversity crisis but the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood, a... -
Spatial analysis of amphibian road mortality levels in northern Portugal coun...
Animal mortality caused by vehicle collisions is one of the main ecological impacts of roads. Amphibians are the most affected group and road fatalities have a significant... -
Overcoming the barrier effect of roads - How effective are mitigation strateg...
Roads, railways and other linear infrastructure are pervasive components of most landscapes throughout the world. Combined with the effect of vehicles, they have the potential... -
Assessing the consistency of hotspot and hot-moment patterns of wildlife road...
Spatial and temporal aggregation patterns of wildlife-vehicle collisions are recurrently used to inform where and when mitigation measures are most needed. The aim of this study... -
Transportation planning and quiet natural areas preservation: aircraft overfl...
Global transportation growth causes several disproportionate impacts on the environment as, for instance, noise pollution which is related to negative effects on human health... -
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... -
Testing wild plants seed mixtures along grey infrastructures.
Linear infrastructures, like roads and railways, exist all around the world and spread throughout a great variety of environments. Despite their known negative impacts, these... -
Road verges are refuges for small mammal populations in extensively managed M...
Understanding how roads affect the persistence of animal populations is one of the challenges of road ecology. Small mammals are of great interest on account of their value as... -
Factors influencing vertebrate carcasses retention time on roads: a prelimina...
Monitoring vertebrate roadkills is a task increasingly done in the last decades in order to better evaluate the impact of roads on wildlife. However, these studies usually... -

Estudio bionómico de la nutria (Lutra lutra L., 1758) en aguas continentales ...
Se investigaron las causas de mortalidad de 54 nutrias en el Noroeste de la Península Ibérica. Los datos se refieren a dos períodos: 1950-1980 y 1981-1993. Los atropellos... -
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... -
General versus specific surveys: estimating the suitability of different road...
The use of wildlife road‐crossing structures (WCS hereafter) is less monitored for small mammals than for more emblematic species. Furthermore, because of the undeniable... -
Environmental and traffic-related factors determining wildlife road-kills thr...
This is the first study focusing on the roadkill of large vertebrates in Mediterranean environments, entailing relevant implications for road safety in this relatively... -

Distributional patterns of insectivorous passerines in the iberian forests: does abundance decrease near the border? Palabras clave: Bird, Forest -
Mainstreaming biodiversity in transport infrastructure management in the digi...
Biodiversity objects are to date almost absent from the BIM world. Developing the biodiversity theme in the BIM environment offers unexplored research opportunities with strong... -
Las aves comunes reproductoras en España: población en 2004-2006.
Exposición de los resultados sobre la evolución de las poblaciones de aves reproductoras mediante muestreos repartidos por toda España entre los años 2004 y 2006. Palabras... -
Fragmentación de hábitat y biodiversidad en las mesetas ibéricas: una perspec...
El estudio a largo plazo de los efectos de la fragmentación del hábitat en un mismo territorio tiene dos ventajas: facilita la comprensión de procesos no siempre evidentes en... -
Road and topography effects on invasion: edge effects in rat foraging pattern...
We studied the effect of road edges on foraging activity by introduced ship or roof rats Rattus rattus in road-fragmented laurel and pine forests on Tenerife (Canary Islands).... -
