Patch Contrast is a patch-level metric in landscape ecology that quantifies the dissimilarity in composition or structure between a focal patch and its surrounding matrix or neighboring patches, distinguishing it from other patch metrics by explicitly measuring contextual heterogeneity at the patch boundary.
