Therefore, these are truly applied sciences where human dimensions play an important role.This book highlights the importance of conducting rigorous studies to design and implement the effective management and restoration of wild populations and their habitats. A new paradigm in conservation is developing that goes beyond the boundaries of protected areas to achieve the goal of sustainable development. The 16 papers in this book, including reviews and a project report, cover a broad range of topics, exploring a diversity of subjects that are representative of current practices and novel applications.We would like to thank both the MDPI publishers and editorial staff for their support and help during the process of editing this book, in addition to the authors for their contributions.Wildlife Protection and Habitat Management Research & information: generalbicsscGeographybicsscroad safetyroadkillclusteringgrowth ratetraffic intensitymitigation measuresroadkill analysismovement patternshabitat characterisationmultiple criteriamulti-objective rankingenvironmental awarenessmachine learningrandom forest modelstructural equation modellinglatent class analysisvisitor mappingsocial-ecological systemscultural rural landscapeprotected areasrewildingrural socioeconomicsforest expansionrural to urban land conversionbiocultural heritagebiodiversitynaturalnessland-cover changehabitat qualityInVESTecosystem-based approach and assessmentnature-based solutiondecision-making supportnational park managementwildlife protectionbiodiversity conservationpolicy frameworkpolicy formulationChinaagricultural managementamphibiansbeta diversitycommunity ecologymetacommunitiesconstructed wetlandsbatsurban ecologylong-term monitoringacousticscity parkscommunity dynamicsconservation evaluationat-risk speciesgolden-winged warblerlandowner incentivesNew England cottontailNatural Resources Conservation ServiceU.S. Department of AgricultureWorking Lands for Wildlifecamera-trappingconservation pumarelative integrated anthropization indexINRASouth American grey foxhabitat adaptabilityhabitat modelhabitat selectionhabitat suitabilityuse versus availabilityMaxentpresence pointsGPS radio-collarsanthropogenic variablesspecies distribution modelsSpermophilus citellusmaximum entropy modelingspecies distribution modelingclimate change refugiaurodelasalamandridaecaudatabiosphere reservehabitat restorationspecies managementlife projectactivity patternsLepus granatensispopulation declinenicheOryctolagus cuniculusroadside censuspredator-prey relationshipsspatio-temporal behaviorabundancedistance samplingpopulation densityR packagewildlife surveyuncertaintyoccupancy modelingroad ecologyResearch & information: generalGeographyBeltrán Juan Fedt1329336Abellán PedroedtLitvaitis JohnedtBeltrán Juan FothAbellán PedroothLitvaitis JohnothBOOK9910595076503321Wildlife Protection and Habitat Management3039447UNINA
