Abstract:Promoting heterogeneous agricultural landscapes could help to reduce the negative impacts of habitat conversion on biota. However, the benefits of landscape heterogeneity can vary among spatial scales and taxa. To design biodiversity-friendly landscapes, we use nationwide bird survey data and land use maps to examine the effects of compositional heterogeneity, configurational heterogeneity, and habitat amount at different scales on the species richness of different bird groups. We examine the effects of config… Show more
