| Many "gap" locations worldwide -- identified in previous research as lacking conservation protection yet harboring imperiled animal species -- are ripe for conservation efforts, because they have a sparse human population and large tracts of conservation-compatible habitat, and are unattractive for agriculture. |
Landscape Corridors Promote Plant Diversity By Preventing Species Loss (View Original Story)
Source: Posted: 09-04-2006 at 12:00:28
| Landscape corridors - thin strips of habitat that connect isolated patches of habitat -- are lifelines for native plants that live in the connected patches and therefore are a useful tool for conserving biodiversity.
That's the result of the first replicated, large-scale study of plants and how they survive in both connected patches of habitat -- those utilizing landscape corridors -- and unconnected patches. |
