Habitat fragmentation and ecological networks in Europe

Habitat fragmentation and ecological networks in Europe. Tillmann, J. E. GAIA - Ecological Perspectives for Science and Society, 14(2):119 – 123, Oekom Verlag, 2005. Cited by: 27

Paper doi abstract bibtex

This article describes the status quo of habitat fragmentation and gives an introduction to nature conservation initiatives on the European scale. The main focus lies on the concepts of ecological networks and the EU COST 341 Action (Cooperation in the field of Scientific and Technical Research) as a programme comprising expertise on the effects of linear transportation infrastructure on habitats. The discussion of this subject is still in its infancy, as is the exchange of information which could optimize "de-fragmenting" measures. It is recommended that an international forum be established on the basis of an initiative at the European scale as a COST Action. Such an on-going international forum would facilitate bilateral co-operation for the designation of transboundary ecological corridors, which is one of the major challenges of European habitat protection.
