Metadata

Methodology:: Fragmentation geometry has been created from input data (VECTOR25, DHM25) and landscape fragmentation metrics (Jaeger 2000) has been calculated. The trans-regional corridor network in Switzerland for terrestrial fauna includes the wildlife corridors and the trans-regional movement axes after Holzgang et al.
