CS Gillies, CCS Clair - . of the National Academy of Sciences, 2008 - National Acad

Abstract Riparian corridors and fencerows are hypothesized to increase the persistence of
forest animals in fragmented landscapes by facilitating movement among suitable habitat
patches. This function may be critically important for forest birds, which have declined ...
What habitat is an island
FL Bunnell - Forest Wildlife and Fragmentation. Management ., 1999 - books.google.com
The equilibrium theory of island biogeography suggested mechanisms for the concepts of
fragmentation and connectivity. For the theory to be predictive in forests, forest stands
must
act as isolated islands in a sea of hostile land. There is little evidence that forest-
