Análisis de conectividad estructural en el corredor kárstico del oriente antioqueño : un análisis exploratorio para el manejo ambiental del territorio

Biological corridors are those linkages that connect two or more remnants of one original habitats within a studied landscape. For example, they tell us about how forest patches can be connected in a fragmented matrix in order to allow wildlife flow throughout their habitats in an evaluated landscape. Thus, these kind of GIS explorations become relevant in conservation projects or in spatial planning. Also, connectivity can be seen from two non-excluded perspectives: functional connectivity, which focuses on how plants or animals move between natural habitats in a landscape; and structural connectivity, which only calculate how natural habitats can be connected in the evaluated matrix. Here I present a structural connectivity analysis in the karstic corridor of eastern Antioquia, in order to define which sites of this zone are better for conservation purposes, and with the interest to bring GIS tools for the environmental corporation of this zone. It is expected that this kind of studies provide a baseline information for other explanatory or scientific studies in the zone, as well as giving some basic tools for other academic studies in biological corridors
