Summary Habitat destruction and degradation represent serious threats to biodiversity, quantification of land‐use change over time is important for understanding the consequences these changes organisms ecosystem service provision. Comparing land use between maps from different periods allows estimation magnitude habitat in an area. However, digitizing historical manually time‐consuming analyses are usually carried out at small spatial extents or low resolutions. HistMapR contains a number...
Intensive management of arable land reduces earthworm density and diversity. This may impair earthworm-mediated soil functions, such as nutrient mineralization structure formation. To sustain source populations for re-colonization cultivated soils, it is therefore important to preserve habitats with high Semi-natural grasslands, a long continuity without disturbance, could serve diversity reservoirs. particularly in mixed agricultural landscapes elements multiple uses. Nonetheless, vary...
Abstract Studies of ecological processes should focus on a relevant spatial scale, as crude resolution will fail to detect small scale variation which is potentially critical importance. Remote sensing methods based multispectral satellite images are used assess primary productivity and aerial photos map vegetation structure. Both the principle that photosynthetically active has characteristic spectral signature. Yet they applied differently due technical differences. Satellite suitable for...
Abstract 1. Habitat destruction and degradation represent serious threats to biodiversity, quantification of land-use change over time is important for understanding the consequences these changes organisms ecosystem service provision. 2. Comparing land use between maps from different periods allows estimation magnitude habitat in an area. However, digitizing historical manually time-consuming analyses are usually carried out at small spatial extents or low resolutions. 3. We developed a...
The abstract classification system Nature in Norway (NiN) has detailed ecological definitions of a high number ecosystem units, but its applicability practical vegetation mapping is unknown because it was not designed with specific method mind. To investigate this further, two methods for – 3D aerial photographic interpretation colour infrared photos and field survey were used to map comparable neighbouring sites 1 km2 Hvaler Municipality, south-eastern Norway. accuracy each evaluated using...
The intention of this study was to analyse the changes in pattern certain landscape elements, land use types and small biotopes (linear structures), determine how these have influenced occurrence grassland plant species. This accomplished by combining retrospective studies aerial photographs from 1947, 1965 1984 with field data over results showed that total types, which affected 27% area, reduced distribution areas 61%. Altogether, linear structures decreased line length 28%. most class,...
Intensive agriculture reduces earthworm density and diversity. This may impair earthworm-mediated soil functions, such as nutrient mineralization structure formation. To sustain source populations for re-colonization of cultivated soils, it is therefore important to preserve habitats with high Semi-natural grasslands, a long continuity without disturbance, could serve habitats. Nonetheless, diversity vary greatly among grasslands. optimally manage the most suitable knowledge about which...
