Facilitating permeability of landscapes impacted by roads for protected amphibians: patterns of movement for the great crested newt (2017)
Journal Article
Matos, C., Petrovan, S., Ward, A. I., & Wheeler, P. (2017). Facilitating permeability of landscapes impacted by roads for protected amphibians: patterns of movement for the great crested newt. PeerJ, 2017(2), e2922. https://doi.org/10.7717/peerj.2922

Amphibian populations are highly vulnerable to road mortality and habitat fragmentation caused by road networks. Wildlife road tunnels are considered the most promising road mitigation measure for amphibians yet generally remain inadequately monitore...

Uncovering environmental, land-use and fire effects on the distribution of a low-dispersal species, the Hermann's tortoise Testudo hermanni (2017)
Journal Article
Badiane, A., Matos, C., & Santos, X. (2017). Uncovering environmental, land-use and fire effects on the distribution of a low-dispersal species, the Hermann's tortoise Testudo hermanni. Amphibia-Reptilia, 38(1), 67-77. https://doi.org/10.1163/15685381-00003086

Habitat destruction has resulted in the fragmented distribution of numerous terrestrial species, which poses a challenge for conservationists. Furthermore, species management can be further compounded by life history constraints such as low dispersal...
