Linking multispecies connectivity modelling and ecosystem services in the context of landscape urbanizationIn light of the ongoing biodiversity crisis and increasingly fragmented urbanized landscapes, facilitating ecological connectivity of species habitats is crucial for effective conservation management. Past approaches of ecological connectivity are manifold and often inconsistent regarding inferred management guidelines. Furthermore, they typically lack an adequate incorporation of species interactions, which can have important consequences for the movement and persistence of a multitude of species in the ecological network. Therefore, in our project, we develop a methodological framework where we integrate multiple species interactions to assess and evaluate “multi-species connectivity” in urban and peri-urban landscapes. Specifically, we will identify key-indicators of ecological networks allowing the consistent and robust assessment of multi-species connectivity and evaluate recent changes thereof across Canada and further regions. Finally, we will implement our method into a replicable workflow that considers connectivity as well as other ecosystem services and that can be applied across spatial scales and landscape contexts. This project is set up in close collaboration with the environmental research firm Habitat (habitat-nature.com) and co-supervised by Dr. Brian Leung (McGill University) and Dr. Andrew Gonzalez (McGill University, co-founder of Habitat). With this work we aim to support the design of effective conservation networks that sustain biodiversity across local, regional and national scales.
