“…Other scales shown to be relevant to urban pond ecosystems include 100 m for macroinvertebrates in West Midlands, UK (Thornhill et al 2017), 100-300 m for wetland birds in eastern Massachusetts, USA (Tavernia and Reed 2010), and 500 m for submerged and floating-leaved macrophytes in Hyogo, Japan (Akasaka et al 2010). Differences in the scale of influence have also been reported for the same taxonomic group (e.g., amphibians): 200 m in Gresham, Oregon, USA (Guderyahn et al 2016), 300-1000 m in the Eastern and Central USA (Marsh 2017), and 1 km in southeastern Australia (Villasenor et al 2017).…”

Review: Toward management of urban ponds for freshwater biodiversity

2019

Many cities around the world are expanding and this trend in urbanization is expected to sharply increase over coming decades. At the same time, the integration of green and blue spaces is widely promoted in urban development, potentially offering numerous benefits for biodiversity. This is particularly relevant for urban waterbodies, a type of ecosystem present in most cities. However, site managers often lack the knowledge base to promote biodiversity in these waterbodies, which are generally created to provide other ecosystem services. To address this, our review presents guidelines for promoting biodiversity in urban ponds. We found a total of 516 publications indexed in ISI Web of Sciences related to this topic, of which 279 were retained for the purposes of our review. The biodiversity of urban ponds, measured by species richness, appears to be generally lower than in rural ponds; however, urban ponds often support threatened species. Furthermore, if well managed, urban ponds have the potential to support a much greater biodiversity than they currently do. Indeed, this review shows that a range of urban factors can impair or promote pond biodiversity, including many that can easily be controlled by site managers. Local factors include design (surface area, pond depth, banks and margins, shade, shoreline irregularity), water quality (conductivity, nutrients, heavy metals), and hydroperiod and biotic characteristics (stands of vegetation, fish, invasive species). Important regional factors include several indicators of urbanization (roads, buildings, density of population, impervious surfaces, car traffic), and the presence of other wetlands or green spaces in the surrounding landscape. We considered each of these factors and their potential impact on freshwater biodiversity. Taking into account the management measures listed in the publications reviewed, we have proposed a framework for the management of urban ponds, with guidelines to promote biodiversity and other ecosystem services, and to avoid ecosystem disservices or the creation of ecological traps. At the city scale, the biodiversity of a pondscape benefits from a high diversity of pond types, differing in their environmental characteristics and management.

“…Noise levels could be high in some highways, especially when heavy trucks make an important portion of the traffic volume (Eigenbrod, Hecnar and Fahrig, 2009). For instance, road density and noise affected frog species richness at the scale of ≤ 5 km in different landscapes in the United States (Marsh, et al, 2016). Other factors that may also affect protected areas within two kilometers of distance are illumination from vehicles at night and chemical pollutants carried by wind and runoff (Forman et al, 2003;Coffin, 2007;Leonard and Hochuli, 2017).…”

(Enero-Junio, 2018 AbstractRoad networks are spatially disposed across landscapes and are differentially used by traffic, generating levels of noise that may negatively affect protected areas. The objective of this study is to quantify the length of road stretches in contact and in close proximity to protected areas, and to investigate differential effects parks may have in relation to traffic volumes and noise pollution. We measured road networks in proximity to protected areas using a geographic information system and the Atlas of Costa Rica. Noise and traffic volumes were quantified in three protected areas with direct adjacency with roads. We generated environmental sound maps to assess the influence of noise on natural sounds, such as those produced by streams (geophony) and birds (biophony). We recorded biophony close and far to the road in one of the protected areas. We found that 70 protected areas are directly or indirectly affected by road proximity. Noise was greater in roads with higher traffic usage than those with lower traffic usage, but the type of vehicles also influenced noise levels. Noise penetrated the forest with greater levels during the dry season than in the wet season. We found that the amount of biophony in seconds was lower close than far from the road, and that the stream sound was masked by traffic noise. Our results suggest that noise may contribute to habitat degradation through a decrease and loss of natural sounds, decreasing the quality of biodiversity protection. Interdisciplinary action and rigorous planning must be considered to avoid road encroachment on protected areas.Keywords: Anthrophony, biodiversity conservation, biophony, geophony, soundscape conservation, traffic volume.

Urbanization is a major driver of global amphibian declines. For the study on the effect of urbanization on amphibians, we compared the growth and the health status of Hyla japonica amphibians collected in the urban areas of Incheon and in the rural area of Gapyeong, Korea. The size and weight of Hyla japonica body in the urban area were smaller than those in the rural area. However, there was no significant difference in their condition factors as a health indicator between the two areas. Our study emphasizes the need for research into the specific mechanism of effects of urbanization on amphibian heath status for the further understanding of the relationship between urbanization and amphibians.
