Multispecies assessment of core areas and connectivity of desert carnivores in central Iran (2018, background): “The connector fraction evaluates a patch’s contribution to landscape connectivity between other patches by acting as a stepping stone patch (Saura & Rubio, 2010).”
Spatio‐temporal connectivity: assessing the amount of reachable habitat in dynamic landscapes (2017, methodology): “…connectivity, we now generalize and adapt two existing habitat availability (habitat reachability) metrics, namely the Probability of Connectivity (PCs) and Equivalent Connectivity (ECs) (Saura & Rubio 2010; Saura, Bodin & Fortin 2014), to account for both the spatial and temporal dimensions.”
Integrating dispersal proxies in ecological and environmental research in the freshwater realm (2017, positive): “270 Overall, graphs are useful for quantifying the physical relationships among the 271 landscape elements (i.e. structural connectivity; e.g. Saura and Rubio 2010) and how this 272 topological structure affects the movement of organisms across the landscape (i.e. potential 273 functional…”
Network analysis in conservation biogeography: challenges and opportunities (2010, background): “Most conservation-oriented applications of network analysis to landscape fragmentation have focused on populations of a single species (e.g. Urban & Keitt, 2001; Saura & Rubio, 2010).”
The flickering connectivity system of the north Andean páramos (2019, background): “The total PC is built up in three ‘fractions’, namely the ‘intrapatch’, the ‘flux’, and the ‘connector’ fractions (Saura & Rubio, 2010).”
Ranking individual habitat patches as connectivity providers: Integrating network analysis and patch removal experiments (2010, background): “All rights reserved. landscape-wide network, and the links between the nodes represent possibilities for movement or dispersal between them (i.e. functional connectivity, see Taylor et al., 1993).”
Connectivity of the global network of protected areas (2016, methodology): “We generated connectivity response curves by plotting ECAnorm against dispersal distance, to compare how connectivity changes across a range of dispersal distances relevant for mammal species (Saura & Rubio, 2010; Ernst, 2014).”
