The related process, habitat fragmentation, is broadly defined and can include many potentially confounded processes.

For these populations, viability analysis requires careful consideration of the issues of spatial heterogeneity and scaling of ecological processes, habitat connectedness, and temporal dynamics of the landscape.
Reference standards have to be based on the original landscape dynamics as defined by hydrology and bedload transport which resulted in a dynamic equilibrium of fluvial processes, habitat composition and consequently characteristic patterns of biodiversity and biogeochemical processes.
Therefore, additional efforts must be made to enhance our understanding of ecological and climatic processes; habitats must be monitored using a standardized methodology; biological, cultural, economic and institutional diversity must be incorporated into the planning, implementation and monitoring of eWMUs; and agreements must be established to strengthen social organization and human capital.
As distance between suitable habitats increases, the ongoing process of habitat fragmentation is expected to generate strong selection pressures on movement behaviour.
The process of habitat urbanization has intense and manifold effects on the biota that we need to better understand.
This scenario suggests a reduction of agricultural expansion in the region and an attenuation in the process of habitat loss and fragmentation.
By simulation analysis Kraft et al. [34] show the process of habitat filtering that produces phylogenetic clustering is best detected by the net relatedness index than by the nearest taxon index, as was the case here for H5N1.
If the same process of habitat choice/host fidelity applied to A. nerii populations, we would have expected to see genetic variation between populations inhabiting Oleander and those inhabiting Milkweed, regardless of geographic proximity.
Considering that the most remnant populations of C. taliensis are turning into smaller as a result of human destruction, however, it is quite possible that the process of habitat fragmentation will lead to a loss of genetic diversity by dramatically increasing mating opportunities between relatives within small populations.
In combination with the fact that the presence of conspecifics plays a prominent role in the process of habitat choice (Stamps 2001), we think this working hypothesis should be revised to incorporate the possibility that decisions of dispersers are influenced by cues they encounter during transfer, even if they use special dispersal movements (Clobert et al. 2009).

Since I tried Ludwig back in 2017, I have been constantly using it in both editing and translation. Ever since, I suggest it to my translators at ProSciEditing.
