Habitat loss and degradation are perceived to be one of the main
factors threatening biodiversity through detrimental effects on
species and populations. These processes reduce habitat
availability, increase isolation and generate patchy environments,
which reduces species richness, population genetic diversity, and
modifies community structure. The loss of biodiversity associated
with habitat alteration is particularly problematic in forest
habitats, because forests are one of the most species-rich habitat
types. The conservation implications have become greater with
evidence that climate change may exacerbate and speed up ongoing
processes. This book focuses on topics that include niche
restriction and conservatism in a neotropical psittacine;
consequences for distribution patterns of specialist fauna; and
paths to habitat loss in European Atlantic heathlands.
