Percentual Influence (pooled positive and negative) of different landscape metric groups on bird data in landscapes dominated by forest (left) and agriculture (right). Percentages describe the significant influence of the variable depending on the frequency of use.

In this state-of-the-art review, we investigate the use of landscape metrics in landscape ecology studies to predict structure of avian communities. We reviewed papers published in international peer-reviewed journals indexed by Web of Science Core, from January 2010 to December 2021. We give an overview of the study methods used in the past twelve...

... both landscape types (forest and agricultural), PLAND has frequently a significant influence on the bird community. In forest areas, the use of this variable led to a significant result in 71% of cases, and in the agricultural context in 91% of cases (Fig. 3). To create a simplified overview of landscape metrics used and the explanatory value for bird communities we grouped landscape metrics by the aspect of landscape pattern as previously described by McGarigal (2017). Commonly selected in forest areas are landscape metrics in the group of AREA, SHAPE and ISOLATION and based on the results ...
