This is the trinity of landscape ecology. Considerations of extent/range/scale, determination of landscape patterns, and the role of humans as an agent of landscape change. While the first two are passive focuses for landscape ecology study, the role of humanity is equated to indicate our active role in reversing our previous detrimental actions to the environment. #landscapeecology #landscape #ecology #enrm230 #upou (at Sablayan Occidental Mindoro)
Humans create and affect landscape patterns. Landscape ecology also focuses on the role of humans as an agent, and a dominant one at that, of landscape change. Thus, landscape ecology does not only look at natural, but at semi-natural and built-in landscapes as well. #landscapeecology #landscape #ecology #enrm230 #upou (at Global City, Fort Bonifacio)
Broad what? Landscape ecology focuses on large geographic areas, thus the term broad extents. This is because we humans see the world through a coarse lens. We see the actions we take on the environment as far as the eyes can see. Landscape ecology however, studies areas on a relevant scale, be it a few square meters of grassland or hundreds of hectares of wildlife habitat.

"Patterns influence processes." In landscape ecology, an interesting pattern affects and is affected by an ecological process. Look at the patterns around you--roads that bisect a forest, patches of ricefields or a meandering river. Are the trees by the roadside healthy? What are the animals living in the ricefields? Does the river overflow during typhoons? #landscapeecology #landscape #ecology #enrm230 #upou (at Victorias City, Negros Occidental)
There are so many definitions of landscape ecology. Simply put, it is a subdiscipline of ecology and geography. Patterns in the landscape and their effects on the environment are studied. Landscape ecology is important especially in understanding the impact of human activities on land, water, air and society. Still with me?
