Document Summary

Describe the three di erent types of corridors: habitat corridor: passively increase patch connectivity, facilitates movement corridor: actively increase patch connectivity, barrier of lter corridor: actively decrease matric connectivity, and eliminate natural barriers. Edge= boundary or interface between two biological communities between di erent landscape elements. How it patch size and shape related to interior habitat. The smaller the patch the smaller the interior habitat. Provide one landscape level strategy and one local level strategy to restore a landscape with linear disturbance features. How does increasing the amount of impervious surface in uence runo and evapotranspiration. De ne the term novel ecosystem and discuss the risks associated with accepting novel ecosystems as part of restoration.
