Assessing the ecological relevance of conservation planning using landscape graph modelling
Résumé
The connectivity of ecological habitat networks is key for maintaining biodiversity and has therefore been the objective of several conservation policies. In France, the Green and Blue In-frastructure strategy “Trame Verte et Bleue” is dedicated to the protection and management of ecological networks. However, the application of this strategy reveals various spatial patterns considering the diversity of environments and species. Our research aims to compare different forest networks mappings with regards to potential connectivity. This research is based on a generic modelling approach using landscape graphs and develops a way to assess ecological connectivity in conservation planning.
