Landscape effects on the complex of Bactrocera oleae parasitoids and implications for conservation biological control (2009, background): “The splitting index, which is a measure of the degree of habitat fragmentation, refers to landscape configuration (Jaeger 2000; Keyghobadi et al. 2005).”
Conefor Sensinode 2.2: A software package for quantifying the importance of habitat patches for landscape connectivity (2009, background): “It is a generalization of the degree of coherence by Jaeger (2000); – landscape coincidence probability, defined in a similar way to the previous metric but when the two random points can fall anywhere within the landscape (either in habitat or non-habitat areas); – integral index of connectivity,…”
A common currency for the different ways in which patches and links can contribute to habitat availability and connectivity in the landscape (2010, methodology): “…as the basis for their computation, such as the area-weighted mean patch size (Turner et al. 1996, Li and Archer 1997) or the degree of coherence (Jaeger 2000). dPCfluxk corresponds to the area-weighted dispersal flux through the connections of patch k to or from all of the other patches in the…”
Integrating landscape connectivity in broad-scale forest planning through a new graph-based habitat availability methodology: application to capercaillie (Tetrao urogallus) in Catalonia (NE Spain) (2006, background): “…and Saura 2006) equals 0.18 for the capercaillie habitat, where CCP is defined as the probability that two individuals randomly placed within the habitat are able to find each other (Jaeger 2000; Pascual-Hortal and Saura 2006), which occurs if they are placed within the same component.”
Parsimony in landscape metrics: Strength, universality, and consistency (2008, background): “…two decades there has been a proliferation of statistical measures of landscape structure (O’Neill et al., 1988; Turner, 1990; Turner and Gardner, 1991; Baker and Cai, 1992; Li and Reynolds, 1995; McGarigal and Marks, 1995; Gustafson, 1998; He et al., 2000; Jaeger, 2000; McGarigal et al., 2002).”
Urban sustainability in developing countries’ megacities: modelling and predicting future urban growth in Lagos (2003, methodology): “Spatial metrics have been largely used in ecological studies of landscape (Simpson, 1949; Patton, 1975; Gustafson and Parker, 1992; Jaeger, 2000; McGarigal et al., 2002).”
A new habitat availability index to integrate connectivity in landscape conservation planning : Comparison with existing indices and application to a case study (2007, background): “The definition of PC as a probability is equivalent to that for he degree of coherence (Jaeger, 2000), although the indices by aeger (2000) do not measure connectivity and do not consider he possibility of dispersal among habitat patches.”
Who Sprawls Most? Exploring the Patterns of Urban Growth across 26 European Countries (2012, background): “In addition, the fragmentation of natural habitats through a process of perforation, dissection, and isolation of natural or seminatural ecosystems is reported to be an effective predictor of species loss and pressure on biodiversity (Jaeger, 2000; Theobald et al, 1997).”
The Effect of Urban Green Spaces on the Urban Thermal Environment and Its Seasonal Variations (2017, neutral): “The splitting index is usually used to characterize landscape fragmentation in a geometric perspective and increases as the landscape is increasingly subdivided into smaller patches [60].”
