Fragmentation |
Fevers urbanized species that can persist in small patches and highly mobile species such as Birds |
|
Urban exploiters |
Increase with urbanization and exploit new and altered environments both native and non-native serve to homogenize BC's and cities |
|
Urban adapters |
Can benefit from urbanization if sufficient native habitat remains. Generalist, able to live in small patches and or adapt to altered environments, also abundant and non urban areas |
|
Novel features of urban environments |
He Island, pollutants, 24-hour light, noise, disturbance, habitat isolation and fragmentation Predators such as cars and |
|
Avoiders |
Specialist, avoiders of disturbance noise and light common on social behavior, require large or specialized habitats, competitors for the top of the pyramid |
|
Diversity of species increases ecosystem resiliency |
Multiple species, rules performing ecological functions. Loss of one species isn't disasterous |
|
Diversity of genotypes and phenotypes within a species |
Increases species resiliency |
|
Diversity of ecological functions |
Increase ecological resiliency |
|
Urbanization affect evolution of species |
Urban habitat fragmentation and isolation can drive evolutionary changes. Genetic drift increase by habitat isolation gene flow decreased by habitat isolation |
