Land Use

Metapopulation theory
12
Fragmentation = Ecological degradation and vulnerability
13
In the modern landscape, human activities are the most prevalent cause of fragmentation/edge- but, natural disturbances also create edge. Patchiness can be ecologically beneficial. Patchiness vs. Fragmentation- - > What is the landscape context?? >Habitat Mosaic
14
These critters like patches
15
The Importance of EdgeEdge
18
“Corridor”
22
Gene flow Source-sink population action Filtering

GIS is used to examine the relationships among multiple kinds of information
