Abstract Assessing the state and trend of biodiversity in face anthropogenic threats requires large‐scale long‐time monitoring, for which new recording methods offer interesting possibilities. Reduced costs a huge increase storage capacity acoustic recorders have resulted an exponential use passive monitoring ( PAM ) on wide range animal groups recent years. has led to rapid growth quantity data, making manual identification increasingly time‐consuming. Therefore, software detecting sound...
Abstract Aim Animal movement determines home range patterns, which in turn affect individual fitness, population dynamics and ecosystem functioning. Using temperate bats, a group of particular conservation concern, we investigated how morphological traits, habitat specialization environmental variables sizes daily foraging movements, using compilation 30 years published bat telemetry data. Location Northern America Europe. Time period 1988–2016. Major taxa studied Bats. Methods We compiled...
Abstract Habitat fragmentation and isolation as a result of human activities have been recognized great threats to population viability. Evaluating landscape connectivity in order identify protect linkages has therefore become key challenge applied ecology conservation. One useful approach evaluate is least‐cost path ( LCP ) analysis. However, several studies highlighted importance parameterization with empirical, biologically relevant proxies factors affecting movements well the need...
Abstract Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) of land‐use planning is a major tool to minimize the environmental impact urbanization. SEA implementation is, however, often based on incomplete biodiversity diagnostics and almost entirely focused lists priority species with high conservation value. At same time, recent studies in Systematic Conservation Planning illustrate how integrate multidimensionality large scale, such as ecosystem function species' evolutionary uniqueness, which...
Abstract Roads have many negative effects on wildlife, including their role in habitat fragmentation. Habitat fragmentation affects bats during daily movements between roosts and foraging areas. As are protected Europe, developers must implement specific mitigation measures that hierarchically structured to achieve a null net impact. However, very few been undertaken specifically for bats. Bat overpasses (e.g. gantries) among proposed improvements intended reduce the impact of roads, but...
Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) of land-use planning is a fundamental tool to minimize environmental impacts artificialization. In this context, Systematic Conservation Planning (SCP) tools based on Species Distribution Models (SDM) are frequently used for the elaboration spatially exhaustive biodiversity diagnostics. Despite paradigm “garbage in - garbage out” that emphasises importance testing suitability data SDM and priority conservation areas, assessment database sources...
Roads have a multitude of direct negative effects on wildlife due to collisions and noise play prominent role in overall habitat fragmentation. For bats, landscape fragmentation by roads causes disturbance during nocturnal movements road kill negatively affects local abundance bat population dynamics. Mitigation measures such as crossings (green bridges) are among the proposed improvements intended reduce impact for many taxa, but their efficiency has rarely been tested bats. In this study,...
Roads have a multitude of negative effects on wildlife, including bat casualties. Most species rely life history traits characterised by high adult survival (associated with greater longevity) and low reproduction rates (hence slow population growth rates). Therefore, road kills are expected to negatively affect local abundance dynamics. Bat overpasses among the proposed improvements intended increase flight height reduce collisions, but their effectiveness has rarely been tested. In this...
