Processes, Rates and Patterns of Land Cover/Use Change and Human Footprint on Biodiversity in the Megalopolis of Mexico City

2026-04-08

Abstract excerpt

In this research we analyzed land cover/use processes and their impact on biodiversity in the Megalopolis of Mexico City. We used land cover/use databases from 1976 and 2018, both validated, improved and adapted for conducting landscape dynamic analysis. We also included records of 159 threatened species of fungi, vascular plants and vertebrates to construct spatially explicit biodiversity richness models based up...
