Population | All species and communities of the temperate climatic zonea |
Exposure | LTI verges (road, railway, power line and pipeline verges and waterway banks) |
Intervention | Management practices or environmental disturbance of LTI verges |
Comparator | Both temporal and spatial comparators, including but not restricted to: Temporal comparators: Ecosystem present before infrastructure construction (when the habitat of the previous ecosystem and of the verge will be similar) Verge before management intervention Spatial comparators: Nearby undisturbed similar ecosystem Nearby unmanaged similar verge |
Outcome | All outcomes relating to corridor or habitat assessment, including but not restricted to, species dispersal and species richness |
