Summary
Links to other chapters -- Further reading -- Part V: Mitigating the Negative Effects of Landscape Change on Species and Assemblages -- Managing Landscape Pattern to Mitigate the Decline of Species and Assemblages -- Strategy 1: Maintain and/or restore large and structurally complex patches of native vegetation -- Rationale -- Protection -- Restoration -- Strategy 2: Maintain and/or restore a matrix that is structurally similar to native vegetation -- Rationale -- Managing the vertical structure of the matrix -- Managing the spatial pattern of the matrix -- Strategy 3: Maintain and/or restore buffers around sensitive areas -- Rationale -- Examples of buffers -- Large-scale buffer zones -- A semi-formal approach to buffer design -- Strategy 4: Maintain and/or restore corridors and stepping stones -- Rationale -- Corridors -- Stepping stones -- Small patches as valuable complements to large patches.
