Displacement

Potential for the loss of habitat due to disturbance or barrier effects.

Displacement is the potential for the loss of habitat due to disturbance or barrier effects. This may be in the form of redistribution from an area or complete avoidance of an area. The consequences of an organism's displacement from an area depends on that organism's functional use of the area. Even small degrees of avoidance may result in displacement and potential barrier effects.
