Threatened woodland habitats

Visualization of narrower problems
Name(s): 
Endangered open-forest habitats
Threatened habitats of open woodlands
Nature 
Woodlands are under pressure from fragmentation due to agriculture and urbanisation, pollution and the introduction of non native species for commercial use. Woodlands consisting of natural climax communities are rare as woodlands have been 'worked' and influenced by the activities of man.
Incidence 
The Geographic Information System (GIS) shows that the loss of UK woodlands and other natural habitats continues at a rate of 4.5% per decade.
