Abstract

Connectivity may be structural, based on adjacency of landscape features, or functional, based on how that adjacency translates to movement of organisms. We present a modelling approach that elucidates both aspects of connectivity to identify vital corridors and conservation priorities in a river network. For the dendritic network structure of river systems, at first a graph theoretic structure is developed to model the river network at the segment scale. To derive functional connectivity, a Bayesian hierarchical modelling of species dispersal is applied to infer the influence of riparian corridor characteristics to the species colonization.
