Landscape connectivity models have been used for a variety of purposes including: conservation planning, managing landscape change and habitat fragmentation, constructing corridors and protected area networks, understanding impediments to dispersal and gene flow, estimating the availability of ecosystem services to agriculture, helping wildlife populations adapt to climate change and, reducing risks associated with the spread of human diseases or invasive species (Albert, Rayfield, Dumitru, & Gonzalez, ; Auffret et al, ; Castillo et al, ; Lechner, Sprod, Carter, & Lefroy, ; McGuire, Lawler, McRae, Nuñez, & Theobald, ; Perry, Moloney, & Etherington, ; Rayfield, Pelletier, Dumitru, Cardille, & Gonzalez, ; Sahraoui, Foltête, & Clauzel, ; Saura et al, ; Sousa & Small, ; Travis Belote et al, ; Watts et al, ).…”
