3 #SCBMelb20 We use Spanowicz & Jaeger 2019 method to quantify the degree of habitat fragmentation across a landscape. Habitat patches are connected if they are within a reasonable distance for that animal to cross, AND are not separated by a barrier.

Using a metric that includes within-patch connectivity (like effective mesh size) can correct for misleading increases in connectivity that may result from other metrics. Paper here: https://t.co/SxscYKoGiQ #CSBQ2019

Honours student Ariel Spanowicz and her supervisor Dr. Jaeger have published a new paper about landscape connectivity in the journal Landscape Ecology:Measuring landscape connectivity: On the importance of within-patch connectivity https://t.co/SnvvXmMSao
