Biological connectivity is understood as those "corridors" that allow the connection between two or more natural elements of interest at a landscape scale. These corridors indicate, for example, how two patches of forest can be linked and which is the most appropriate path to achieve this connection, so that animal and plant species can use them and pass through them to get from one place to another and to perform their biological functions. Obviously, this connection occurs in the midst of a landscape matrix that includes ...

Biological connectivity is understood as those "corridors" that allow the connection between two or more natural elements of interest at a landscape scale. These corridors indicate, for example, how two patches of forest can be linked and which is the most appropriate path to achieve this connection, so that animal and plant species can use them and pass through them to get from one place to another and to perform their biological functions. Obviously, this connection occurs in the midst of a landscape matrix that includes both natural and artificial or agricultural elements. Therefore, understanding how biodiversity interacts in environments with so many variables or effects is key when establishing conservation or restoration programs in a territory.
