Delineating a Wildlife Corridor in an Agricultural Mosaic. Effects of Landscape and Conservation Pattern
Original language description
In conservation the establishment of links between major habitats is commonly used to reduce the effect of habitat fragmentation and loss. There is no common model of a corridor, as it largely depends on the particular spatial configuration of land typesand the way it is used. Geospatial information on land management practices provide the information required for corridor building programs. This paper aims to delineate a wildlife corridor between the Bardia National Park in Nepal and Katerniyaghat Wildlife Sanctuary in India. Data obtained from maps, a questionnaire and vegetation survey were integrated and used to quantify land cover and land use patterns. It proved difficult to delineate the boundary of corridors in a landscape consisting of diverse land types, when each is managed differently. Instead of delineating forest areas as a corridor, the integrated conservation of all land parcels, including private and settlement areas, provided the best approach. This makes the corrido
