“…To assess structural habitat connectivity created by the forest stands formally and voluntarily set aside for biodiversity conservation in our two study areas, we used the Morphological Spatial Pattern Analysis (MSPA) (Ostapowicz et al, 2008;Soille and Vogt, 2009;Vogt et al, 2007aVogt et al, , 2007bVogt et al, , 2009). The MSPA has been used to quantify the structural (Ostapowicz et al, 2008;Vogt et al, 2007a, b, c;Wickham et al, 2010) and functional ) connectivity, and landscape fragmentation (Ostapowicz et al, 2008).…”

“…As a result, the land class in each image was further classified into six categories: perforated, edge, patch, small core (,250 acres), medium core (between 250 and 500 acres), and large core (.500 acres). An edge width parameter was specified as 15 m. The literature indicates that the edge width varies according to the issue of interest (Riiters et al, 2000;Vogt et al, 2009). This edge effect distance was chosen after testing several different values for this parameter, and based on visual examinations of the resulting fragmentation maps and input data sets, it was decided that 15 m represented the optimum distance for edgeeffect influence for this data set.…”

“…So far, only some attempts have been made to combine functional and structural connectivity [16]. However, mapping and assessing functional connectivity is a complex task because of the scarcity of data available to implement species-specific assessments and because results depend on methods to analyze preferences in terms of species movements [15].…”

“…In particular, the latter is related to species' behavior in response to landscape structure and to the landscape structure per se as well [13]. Although analyses based on structural connectivity are less complicated, for example in terms of input data requirements [14], functional connectivity recognizes the species-specific character of connectivity [15]. So far, only some attempts have been made to combine functional and structural connectivity [16].…”
