Time-lag in biological responses to landscape changes in a highly dynamic Atlantic forest region (2009, unknown): “…and matrix type; additionally, it also depends on species behaviour, such as gap-crossing capacities and the ability to use disturbed habitats, corridors and stepping-stones (Tischendorf and Fahrig, 2000; Uezu et al., 2005, 2008; Awade and Metzger, 2008; Boscolo et al., 2008; Umetsu et al., 2008).”
