La mortalidad de anfibios y reptiles en las carreteras
Reptiles and amphibian road kills are examined. Amphibian kills are often a consequence of reproductive migratory behaviour, occurring in springtime as well as in autumn.... -
Vertebrados atropellados en dos carreteras orensanas. Primer informe.
Data on vertebrate mortality in two roads of Orense province (NW Spain). A total of 18 km were surveyed in one national and one local road during six months on a weekly basis. A... -
Assessing the effects of road type and position on the road on small mammal c...
Roadkill estimates can be heavily biased due to variable carcass persistence time. If not adequately considered, this bias may lead to incorrect management actions. We designed... -
Carreteras que constituyen puntos negros para vertebrados. Criterios de valor...
Definition and localization of black spots. The urgency to implement mitigation measures is highlighted. Identificación y localización de puntos negros en España. Se comenta la... -
New real-time mitigation measures based on animal-vehicle collision spatio-te...
Road ecologists have proposed a wide range of mitigation measures in order to reduce the number of animal-vehicle collisions (AVC). Some measures aim to modify driver behaviour... -
Wildlife-vehicle collisions in Spain.
Wildlife-vehicle collisions (WVC) are important in wildlife management due to their increasing socioeconomic impacts and pervasive effect on some endangered species. In this... -
Informe provisional del seguimiento de la mortalidad de vertebrados en las ca...
In Badajoz (W Spain) almost 50% of provincial roads were sought for vertebrate carcasses. The frequencies of vertebrate taxa were: birds (44%), mammals (32%) amphibians (14%)... -
Implications for conservation and game management of the roadkill levels of t...
The Iberian hare (Lepus granatensis) is an important small game species endemic to the Iberian Peninsula for which the incidence of roadkill is unknown. We surveyed Iberian... -
Predicting spatiotemporal patterns of road mortality for medium-large mammals.
We modelled the spatiotemporal patterns of road mortality for seven medium-large mammals, using a roadkill dataset from Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil (800 km of roads surveyed... -

Accidentes de tráfico causados por especies cinegéticas de caza mayor en la p...
El incremento sustancial de los accidentes de tráfico provocados por fauna silvestre está relacionado, sin duda, con el progresivo aumento en la última década de algunas... -

Beyond crippling bias: carcass‐location bias in roadkill studies.
Beyond crippling bias: carcass‐location bias in roadkill studies. -
Mainstreaming biodiversity in transport infrastructure management thanks to s...
Biodiversity and transport sectors use data and tools for specific purposes which can often be mutualised offering opportunities for costefficient improvement of transport... -
Bringing science and technology together: Real-time road signs based on tempo...
Numerous types of mitigation measures aimed at reducing animal-vehicle collisions (AVC) are available. These measures are oriented both to the driver and the animal and show... -
Assessing behaviour states of a forest carnivore in a road-dominated landscap...
Anthropogenic infrastructures and land-use changes are major threats to animal movements across heterogeneous landscapes. Yet, the behavioural consequences of such constraints... -
A new large-scale index (AcED) for assessing traffic noise disturbance on wil...
Anthropogenic noise is a growing ubiquitous and pervasive pollutant as well as a recognised stressor that spreads throughout natural ecosystems. However, there is still an... -
The role of remote sensing data in habitat suitability and connectivity model...
Ecological modeling requires sufficient spatial resolution and a careful selection of environmental variables to achieve good predictive performance. Although national and... -
Bad moon rising? The influence of the lunar cycle on amphibian roadkills.
Annually, roads, and their associated users, are responsible for millions of roadkills worldwide. Mortality affects multiple taxonomic groups, but amphibians are particularly... -
Mobile mapping system (MMS2) for detecting roadkills.
Roads affect negatively wildlife, from direct mortality to habitat fragmentation. Mortality caused by collision with vehicles on roads is a major threat to many species....
