Biodiversity Conservation in Urban and Rural Areas

It is now recognised that nature conservation objectives concern ordinary areas, under strong influence of human activities, as much as protected nature areas. In our research projects, we examine those landscape factors which may influence the distribution of common biodiversity (species and communities of wild plants and animals), in farmed and urban landscapes. To do this, we study the distribution, in space and over time, of fragmented semi-natural habitats (hedgerow networks, woodlands, grassy roadsides) but also the landscape mosaic as a whole.
