Assessing habitat disturbance using an historical perspective: the case of Salisbury Plain military training area

Article Abstract:

Research using image analysis software and aerial photograph analysis indicates that habitat disturbance in England's Salisbury Plain military training area is occurring at a more rapid rate than regeneration through natural processes. The increase of bare-ground expanses between the 1940s and 1990s suggests that the region's chalk grassland flora and fauna are at significant risk.
