Does the type of matrix matter? A quantitative review of the evidence (2010, background): “2002; Bender and Fahrig 2005), and may regulate the use of corridors and stepping stones (Baum et al. 2004).”
Green corridors in urban landscapes affect the arthropod communities of domestic gardens (2012, background): “As showed by some authors, matrix properties could play a major role in the landscape connectivity and in corridor efficiency (Baum et al., 2004; Prevedello and Vieira, 2010; Rosenberg et al., 1997).”
Can agroforest woodlots work as stepping stones for birds in the Atlantic forest region? (2008, background): “According to previous results, in less-permeable matrix the function of the stepping stones in facilitating biological Xuxes is reduced (Baum et al. 2004).”
Small mammals in a mosaic of forest remnants and anthropogenic habitats—evaluating matrix quality in an Atlantic forest landscape (2007, background): “1993), and that the contribution of the matrix to the flow of organisms or genes in fragmented landscapes is usually complementary (Hudgens and Haddad 2003) or synergetic (Baum et al. 2004) to that of corridors.”
Modelling geographic distribution and detecting conservation gaps in Italy for the threatened beetle Rosalia alpina (2013, background): “…management of biodiversity, such models have been used to detect core regions of geographic distribution, recognise or plan continuous corridors or stepping-stone interconnections (Baum et al. 2004; Drag et al. 2011), as well as identify sites where restoration actions are more urgent.”
Analyzing the effect of stepping stones on target patch colonisation in structured landscapes for Eurasian lynx (2011, background): “This is in line with the empirical findings of Baum et al. (2004).”
Corridors for Conservation: Integrating Pattern and Process (2006, background): “First, it assumes that movement is categorically facilitated by corridors and impeded by the matrix (Baum et al. 2004, Rosenberg et al. 1997, Simberloff et al. 1992), whereas real landscapes create a continuum of influences on movement (Puth & Wilson 2001).”
Do corridors promote dispersal in grassland butterflies and other insects? (2007, background): “Only two studies (Berggren et al. 2002; Baum et al. 2004) out of six showed positive effects of corridors consisting of grassy vegetation surrounded by an open matrix.”
Are urban parks refuges for bumble bees Bombus spp. (Hymenoptera: Apidae)? (2006, positive): “A matrix that is hostile to dispersal has been shown to hinder movement between patches in planthoppers and butterflies (Ricketts, 2001; Baum et al., 2004).”
