Landscape metrics as indicators of avian diversity and community measures
Original language description
The identification of landscape metrics that could be used as surrogate of biodiversity is still of broad and current interest in ecology. Several landscape metrics used to provide a quantitative description of environmental structure and related to the landscape heterogeneity were proposed in ecological modelling procedures as surrogates or indicators of biodiversity metrics. Most frequently, the species occupancy in a given area is related to the niche availability, which is correlated with the spatial heterogeneity of the landscape (e.g. number of different land use patches). However, the effectiveness of biodiversity indicators (biotic indicators: e.g. species, group of species: abiotic indicators: e.g. environmental characteristics, landscape metrics) is still discussed and more efficient surrogates are needed. In this study, we explored the associations among the most common landscape metrics and several diversity and community metrics calculated for bird assemblages in the Czech Republic. U
