Abstract Rapid urbanization will cause various land use changes and the vast occupation of green spaces, a critical factor in deterioration biodiversity urbanized areas. Some species wildlife are endangered due to habitat shrunk fragmentation. However, Malaysia's current protection range is still limited. The Ecological Network (EN) refers framework ecological components, which can be obtained by geographical technical approaches support more diversity ranges. Furthermore, little research has been found on EN Malaysia impact change EN. Therefore, Selangor region selected as study area. This paper quantifies measures extent obtain EN’s change. result shown that forestland decreased, explored people for housing agriculture from 2000 2020. trend Overall, this study's results imply led EN's worsened performance 2020 hopes could help supply information conserving future development urban sustainable planning Malaysia.

Abstract Due to the central role of landscape connectivity in many ecological processes, evaluating and accounting for it has gained attention both theoretical applied sciences. To address this challenge, researchers often use generic species simplify multi‐species assessments. Yet, approach tends oversimplify movement behaviour, likely reducing realism precision model outputs. Also, most widely used methods theories assessing connectivity, namely circuit network theories, have strong limitations. Finally, uncertainty or robustness estimates are rarely integrated Here, we propose a versatile framework, which, instead using arbitrary defined species, first identifies groups based on species' environmental niches morphological, biological, traits. Second, combines take best two assess those groups, while integrating uncertainties modelling choices. Specifically, continuities (i.e. elements contributing connectivity) calculated these together with group dispersal capacities derive network‐based metrics conservation areas. We detailed our framework through case study where 1619 protected areas metropolitan France 193 vertebrate species.

The proposed different tools provide more relevant comprehensive assessment connectivity.

Abstract Purpose of Review Landscapes can be defined as mosaics different land covers, habitats, ecosystems, or land-use systems. The link between spatial heterogeneous patterns and ecological processes is the core concept in research field landscape ecology. Nowadays, advanced computational methods are essential to due its cross-disciplinary nature, increasing availability data, complexity Recent Findings This review provides an overview recent developments that have We focus on key topics such patterns, connectivity, genetics, sampling, simulations modeling, planning. Summary highlights innovations, challenges, potential future directions field, emphasizing role addressing complex questions.
