   Oct 1, 2002 · Urbanization is a rapidly growing cause of many environmental problems (Benfield et al. 1999). The impact of urbanization is documented in the growing literature on the urban–rural gradient. These studies show consistent changes in species richness and species composition along the gradient.

   Nov 25, 2020 · With rapid urbanization, human contact with nature declines, decreasing the positive influence of nature on health, including mental health (Bratman et al. 2019). If urban growth and urbanization proceed unplanned or haphazardly, it can destroy natural habitat and impact biodiversity and erode human well-being.

   Does urbanization contribute to urban biodiversity management?

   • Urbanization can cause rapid evolutionary responses among city-dwelling species but evolution is rarely accounted for in urban conservation efforts. Here, the authors outline a framework for integrating evolutionary principles into the management of urban biodiversity.

   What is the difference between urbanization and urban growth?

   • Following the scheme outlined by McDonald et al. ( 2020 ), the term “urbanization” refers to “the change in the proportion of a population living in an urban area,” (p. 16) whereas “urban growth” is the “increase in the area of cities or towns,” (p. 16).

   Is urbanization a maladaptive physiological response?

   • These findings suggest that potentially maladaptive physiological responses to urbanization may arise in response to the urban heat island effect, perhaps if selection is acting on correlated traits (e.g., heat tolerance). Alternatively, elevated metabolic rates may confer adaptive benefits in unanticipated ways.

   Feb 19, 2021 · In this review, we assess the current state (2015–2020) of urban landscape genetics research, examining what types of urban features are quantified, what genetic measures are used, what species are studied, and in which geographic regions they are conducted. We then make recommendations for future research. Recent Findings.
