To address this problem, conservationists have increasingly turned to biological corridors, areas of land set aside to facilitate the movement of species and ecological processes. However, while hundreds of corridor initiatives are under way worldwide, there is little practical information to guide their design, location, and management. ""Applying Nature's Design"" offers a comprehensive overview of current knowledge on corridors, their design, and the 606 $aCorridors (Ecology) 615 4$aCorridors (Ecology). 676 $a333.9516 700 $aAnderson$b Anthony B$0623860 701 $aJenkins$b Clinton N$01597477 801 0$bAU-PeEL 801 1$bAU-PeEL 801 2$bAU-PeEL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910816536703321 996 $aApplying Nature's Design$93919235 997 $aUNINA
