The two indices of connectivity are operatively defined, one (IC) that can be calculated in a GIS environment and represents a connectivity assessment based on landscape's information, and another that can be evaluated in the field (FIC) through direct assessment.
However, grouping sites based on landscape attributes revealed significant reserve effects between site classes.
Instead, qualitative recommendations about which types of habitats or wood types that have the most threatened fauna and flora can be made based on information about landscape history and microhabitat associations of red-listed species.
For each of these metrics, cutoff values for high, medium, and low habitat value were suggested, based on available information on distributions of organisms and landscape features, as well as habitat use information.
Along the way, you'd learn the product landscape and make a decision based on the information you were given.
In short, thanks to algorithms, anything goes in today's online advertising landscape where even Facebook ads target users based on myriad information garnered from how we use social media.
We used FRAGSTATS software to calculate landscape metrics and characterize landscape structure of the buffer zone based on information extracted from remote sensing data collected in 2006 and 2010.
Based on topographic information combined with an updated list of the vertebrate faunal assemblage, the corresponding palaeo-landscape has been reconstructed.
Recent studies used 'least-cost' modelling (available as a toolbox in GIS-systems) to calculate 'effective distance', a measure for distance modified with the cost to move between habitat patches based on detailed geographical information on the landscape as well as behavioural aspects of the organisms studied.
Based on that information, Netflix bought "House of Cards".
