Recreational trails are an important cause of fragmentation in endangered urban forests: A case-study from Australia

Remnant urban forests are often popular sites for recreational activities such as hiking, biking and motorised recreation. This can result in the formation of extensive trail networks, fragmenting vegetation into patches separated by modified edge effects and ultimately contributing to the degradati...
