Universidade de LisboaThe impact of human activities on the environment and biodiversity assumes unprecedented levels. Measuring such impacts can inform about the repercussions these impacts may have on animal species. In the Mediterranean region these impacts are of particular relevance, since most of the ecosystems coevolved with the human presence based on an extensive management, generally compatible with natural assets. However, the intensification of the landscape alterations and changes in the land-use management over the past years is responsible for the degradation of animal communities. These anthropogenic drivers can lead to profound consequences not only on the environment itself, but also on all living species. The study took place in Arrábida Natural Park (ANP) where we set 47 camera trap stations within an area of 5 587 ha to monitor carnivorous mammals. As explanatory variables, we considered groups of variables included in the most significant anthropogenic drivers: landscape alterations, land-use management, urban and industry development and, finally, the introduction of feral species. We detected five out of the eight species recorded in the ANP, but only three had the minimum occurrence data necessary for statistical analysis. Model selection revealed that the used variables were not significant on carnivore species, contrary to what we expected. Only landscape alterations and land-use management, showed positive relations with wild carnivores’ occupancy. Meanwhile, our study also demonstrated that weather variables had an impact on the detection of these species. Carnivores were present in almost all study area throughout the seasons, which impede the estimation of extinction e colonization parameters for most species. Although our results did not demonstrate an evident impact of anthropogenic disturbance on carnivore species, our data suggests that the community is already depleted. We conclude that the area may be experiencing human pressure from decades on, and only common and generalist carnivorous species prevailISAMira, AntónioRepositório da Universidade de LisboaParrinha, Marta Alcoforado da Gama de Oliveira2021-05-18T11:24:10Z20202020-01-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10400.5/21318TID:203084675engParrinha, M.A.G.O. - Impacts of human disturbance on the occurrence of canivorous mammals in the Arrabida Natural Park.
