Introduction

Coastal habitats are vital ecosystems that support a diverse range of species and provide numerous ecosystem services. However, these habitats are increasingly under threat from human activities, leading to fragmentation and loss of connectivity. Habitat connectivity plays a crucial role in maintaining the functionality and resilience of coastal ecosystems, allowing for the movement of species, nutrients, and genetic material between different habitats.

Restoring coastal habitat connectivity has become a key conservation priority, as it can help to enhance the resilience of ecosystems to climate change, support biodiversity conservation, and improve the delivery of ecosystem services. In recent years, there has been growing interest in understanding the factors influencing habitat connectivity and developing effective restoration strategies to enhance connectivity between coastal habitats.

This thesis aims to contribute to the growing body of knowledge on coastal habitat connectivity restoration by exploring the factors influencing habitat connectivity, and evaluating the effectiveness of different restoration techniques in enhancing connectivity. The study will focus on a specific coastal habitat type and assess the impact of restoration efforts on connectivity within and between different habitat patches.

Thesis Overview on Coastal Habitat Connectivity Restoration

Coastal habitats are critical ecosystems that provide essential services to both humans and wildlife. However, these habitats are increasingly threatened by human activities, leading to fragmentation and loss of connectivity. Restoring coastal habitat connectivity is crucial for maintaining ecosystem functionality, supporting biodiversity conservation, and enhancing ecosystem resilience.

This thesis aims to contribute to the understanding of coastal habitat connectivity restoration by examining the factors influencing habitat connectivity and evaluating the effectiveness of restoration techniques. The study will focus on a specific coastal habitat type and assess the impact of restoration efforts on connectivity within and between habitat patches.

Chapter 1 provides an introduction to the study, including the background, problem statement, objectives, limitations, scope, significance, structure of the thesis, and definition of terms. Chapter 2 conducts a comprehensive literature review on habitat connectivity, including its importance, influencing factors, assessment methods, current status, impacts of fragmentation, restoration techniques, case studies, challenges, and future directions.

Chapter 3 outlines the research methodology, including the study area description, sampling design, data collection methods, data analysis techniques, evaluation criteria, stakeholder engagement, ethics, permits, timeline, budget, and risk assessment. Chapter 4 discusses the findings of the study, including factors influencing connectivity, effectiveness of restoration techniques, dynamics of habitat connectivity, comparison of approaches, key implications, recommendations, and conclusions.

Chapter 5 concludes the thesis by summarizing key findings, drawing conclusions, discussing implications for habitat management, highlighting contributions to the field, offering recommendations for future research and conservation efforts, and providing a final conclusion on coastal habitat connectivity restoration.
