Abstract

Introduction Landscape ecology, as a problem oriented science can play a substantial role in the investigation of structural and functional changes of landscapes. FRAGMENTATION is one of the major processes causing changes in landscapes. It is considered as one of the main threats to biodiversity, causing land covers or habitats to break to smaller and less connected pieces and thus reducing their connectivity.Landscape ecological metrics which are quantitative tools to measure landscape changes have experienced lots of evolutions. Recently, landscape metrics have varied and evolved from merely describing structural changes to tools for quantification of ecological processes. One of these metrics is Effective Mesh Size (meff) which indicates the probability of connection between two points in landscape and not being separated by barriers like roads. This metric can be used to explain ecological processes like animal dispersion and habitat viability. Therefore, it is useful to investigate structural changes in sensitive areas (such as national parks).
