This book is open access under a CC BY 4.0 license. This book
provides a unique overview of the impacts of railways on
biodiversity, integrating the existing knowledge on the ecological
effects of railways on wildlife, identifying major knowledge gaps
and research directions and presenting the emerging field of
railway ecology. The book is divided into two major parts: Part one
offers a general review of the major conceptual and theoretical
principles of railway ecology. The chapters consider the impacts of
railways on wildlife populations and concentrate on four major
topics: mortality, barrier effects, species invasions and
disturbances (ranging from noise to chemical pollution). Part two
focuses on a number of case studies from Europe, Asia and North
America written by an international group of experts.
