Connectivity conservation is a community-led approach to conservation that brings people together to reverse the impacts of habitat loss, fragmentation and degradation by reconnecting our natural world. Research clearly shows that the conventional approach of prioritising the conservation of isolated patches of habitat in national parks is insufficient by itself to ensure the long-term survival and adaptability of our wildlife and the resilience and integrity of our ecosystems – connectivity(the degree to which landscapes and seascapes allow species to move freely and ecological processes to function unimpeded) is crucial for our survival. 2, record 3, English, - connectivity%20conservation

Shoreline hardening is the clearing of the natural vegetation along the shore and into the water and putting in things like concrete docks and walls right next to the water's edge. Cutting the grass right to the water's edge is another way of hardening the shoreline. Water becomes dirty and both natural plants and animal communities are destroyed. This causes a dramatic loss of habitat. 2, record 4, English, - shoreline%20hardening

Species loss again is mainly a matter of land use. The whole world population can fit on the surface of Texas, even with enough land to build a house and have fun. But as humans are spreading everywhere, lots of habitats are lost. Thus it is a matter of world wide urban planning, letting large parts of habitat really wild.

Habitat fragmentation is the loss and subdivision of portion of a given habitat and the corresponding increase in other habitats in the landscape.

Bosques cortados y reducidos a su mínima extensión, transformaciones de tierras, cambios drásticos de usos del suelo, contaminación de suelos y aguas, sobreexplotación de recursos naturales, todo ello está llevando a la más grave extinción de biodiversidad que el hombre haya podido conocer a lo largo de su historia.

These industrial practices affect biodiversity through soil erosion, stream siltation, loss of beneficial soil biota, and loss of humus, effects on micro-and macroclimate, and loss of major habitat.

Normes de diversité génétique. Chaque espèce est unique et possède sa propre norme de diversité génétique, à tout moment de son évolution au sein de l'écosystème. Si on définissait une norme pour ce type de diversité, il devrait être possible de détecter et de mesurer les écarts qui existent par rapport à elle. Ces écarts comprendraient les nouvelles mutations et combinaisons géniques d'origine humaine, les pertes de gènes, les pressions résultant d'une fragmentation de l'habitat, les changements appréciables dans la fréquence d'un gène dans une population donnée et les disparitions de populations uniques sur le plan génétique. 1, record 32, French, - combinaison%20g%C3%A9nique

A major cause of species loss today is the fragmentation of previously continuous habitat over large regions. Many species simply cannot breed successfully in fragmented ecosystems for a variety of reasons(predation, inbreeding, interference with daily/seasonal movements, lack of pollinators, etc). Recolonization of fragments of suitable habitat from other areas or regions is a constant necessity. 1, record 34, English, - movement

De nos jours, un des principaux facteurs qui contribuent à la disparition des espèces est la fragmentation des habitats qui s'étendaient autrefois de façon ininterrompue sur de vastes territoires. De nombreuses espèces ne parviennent tout simplement plus, pour diverses raisons (prédation, consanguinité, déplacements journaliers ou saisonniers entravés, absence de pollinisateurs, etc.), à se reproduire dans ces écosystèmes morcelés. 1, record 34, French, - d%C3%A9placement

The general principles of plant community succession, applied to the species complex in the wetlands and the expected changes in the moisture regime, could be used to predict the future plant community within specified time and space boundaries. Predicting, in any rigorous sense, the effects of the resulting habitat changes on species of concern would be difficult due to the complexity of most species-habitat interactions. Furthermore, it would be unlikely that the effects of the loss of habitat on the longer-term population dynamics of such species could be determined beforehand. 1, record 37, English, - moisture%20regime
