Environmental Impact - Wildlife/Vegetation Effects
August, P. V., Clarke, J.W., McGaugh, M.H. & Packard, R.L. (1979). Demographic patterns of small mammals: A possible use in impact assessment. Biological Investigations: 333-340.
Abstract
Demographic patterns of small mammals can be useful in determining the
effects of human use upon a given area. Comparisons of populations before
and after periods of human use reveal changes associated with the use
which may serve as a measurement of disturbance. Preliminary results of
pre-use studies in a National Park in Texas and applications to the measurement
of human disturbance are discussed.
