DoomsdaysCW<p>Understanding Wildlife Behavioral Responses to Traffic Noise and Light to Improve Mitigation Planning</p><p>Product Type: Policy Brief<br>Publication Date: June 09, 2020</p><p>"As roads and other developed land uses proliferate, the resulting habitat fragmentation and loss of wildlife connectivity hinder animals’ ability to forage, establish new territories, and maintain genetic diversity. Wildlife crossing structures such as culverts and bridges theoretically can reduce these impacts by allowing species to effectively cross highways. However, previous research has shown that traffic presence and density can disrupt wildlife use of highway crossing structures, and that noise and light from human activities can affect animal behavior. Researchers at the University of California, Davis, Road Ecology Center measured traffic noise and light levels and placed motion- and heat-triggered cameras at 26 bridges and culverts along four interstate highways, 11 state highways and one major county road across California. The presence and behavior of animals at these highway crossing structures were compared to those detected at sites unaffected by roads to understand the effects of noise and light from a highway on wildlife behavior. This policy brief summarizes findings from that research and provides policy implications.</p><p>"Traffic moving on transportation corridors affects wildlife connectivity. Many wildlife species move across road surfaces, or through culverts and bridges, with varying levels of success depending on species, infrastructure and traffic levels. As roads and other developed land uses proliferate, the resulting habitat fragmentation and loss of wildlife connectivity hinder animals’ ability to forage, establish new territories, and maintain genetic diversity. Wildlife crossing structures such as culverts and bridges theoretically can reduce these impacts by allowing species to effectively cross highways. However, the physical roadway barrier may not be the only deterrent. Previous research has shown that traffic presence and density can disrupt wildlife use of highway crossing structures, and that noise and light from human activities can affect animal behavior."</p><p><a href="https://ncst.ucdavis.edu/research-product/understanding-wildlife-behavioral-responses-traffic-noise-and-light-improve" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">ncst.ucdavis.edu/research-prod</span><span class="invisible">uct/understanding-wildlife-behavioral-responses-traffic-noise-and-light-improve</span></a></p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/GorhamConnector" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GorhamConnector</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SaveSmilingHillFarm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SaveSmilingHillFarm</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SaveRedBrook" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SaveRedBrook</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SaveTheForest" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SaveTheForest</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WorkingFarms" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WorkingFarms</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/MaineTurnpikeAuthority" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MaineTurnpikeAuthority</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Sprawl" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Sprawl</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/InducedDevelopment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>InducedDevelopment</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/GorhamSpur" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GorhamSpur</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Wetlands" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Wetlands</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Meadows" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Meadows</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/EnvironmentalImpact" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>EnvironmentalImpact</span></a><br><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SaveTheWoods" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SaveTheWoods</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Maine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Maine</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/GorhamMaine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GorhamMaine</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ScarboroughMaine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ScarboroughMaine</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WestbrookMaine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WestbrookMaine</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/RapidTransit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RapidTransit</span></a></p>
