Spatial Structure • Composition = The presence and amount of each element type without spatially explicit measures. • Proportion, richness, evenness, diversity • Configuration = The physical distribution in space and spatial character of elements. • Isolation, placement, adjacency

Types of Metrics • Area, Density, Diversity • Shape • Core area • Isolation/proximity, Nearest-Neighbor • Contrast metrics • Contagion / Interspersion • Connectivity • Diversity
Area, Density, Diversity Metrics Shannon Diversity Index Patch Density
Shape Metricsperimeter-area relationships Fractal: a pattern composed of identical parts
E = total edge A = total area • Fractal Dimension (D), or (FRACT) • - log P = 1/2D*log A; P = perimeter, A = area • Shape Index (SHAPE) -- complexity of patch compared to standard shape • vector uses circular; raster uses square • Mean Shape Index (MSI) = perimeter-to-area ratio • Area-Weighted Mean Shape Index (AWMSI) • Landscape Shape Index (LSI) fractal dimension indicates the extent to which the fractal object fills the Euclidean dimension
M = number of classes Eik = length of edge between classes Contagion, Interspersion and Juxtaposition • When first proposed (O’Neill 1988) proved incorrect, Li & Reynolds (1993) alternative • Based upon the product of two (2) probabilities • Randomly chosen cell belongs to patch “i” • Conditional probability of given type “i” neighboring cells belongs to “j” • Interspersion (the intermixing of units of different patch types) and Juxtaposition (the mix of different types being adjacent) index (IJI)

Landscape Ecology • Structure = the spatial relationships among the distinctive ecosystems or “elements” • Function = the interactions among the spatial elements • Change = the alteration in the structure and function of the ecological mosaic over time
Landscape Structure Physiognomy / Pattern • Composition = The presence and amount of each element type without spatially explicit measures. • Proportion, richness, evenness, diversity • Configuration = The physical distribution in space and spatial character of elements. • Isolation, placement, adjacency • ** some metrics do both **

A raised to D, and D = 1 (a line) • as polygons move to complexity P = A, and D -> 2 • A few fractal metrics • Double log fractal dimension (DLFD) • Mean patch fractal (MPFD) • Area-weighted mean patch fractal dimension (AWMPFD)
