The term "structural connectedness" describes the physical organisation of habitat as well as potential links between habitat fragment types throughout the landscape.

Structural connectedness describes how individual animals actually move around the landscape and the extent to which each landscape supports or restricts this mobility. Functional connectedness must guide efforts in landscape planning and management since it refers to how species use natural systems to travel through the landscape as opposed to how people perceive patterns of connection.

It is helpful to think of a functionally connected landscape as an assembly of habitat "islands" surrounded by "matrix," which are the outcome of habitat fragmentation (less preferred habitat). Anything can be considered a matrix, including suburban sprawl, clearcuts, and agricultural land. However, because different species have different levels of tolerance for less desirable environments, effective conservation planning and management initiatives must consider connectivity from the viewpoint of each target species.
