    viable

    Correct?

    brauchbar

    Examples/ definitions with source references
    For many large mammals and some birds viable fragments of habitat are size-dependent, despite the fact that the overall area available in a country may still sum to a relatively large area.

    Fuer viele grosse Saeugetiere und einige Vogelarten haengen brauchbare (?) Habitatsfragmente von der Groesse ab, trotz der Tatsache, dass sich die allgemein verfuegbare Flaeche in einem Land zu einer relativ grossen Flaeche summieren (?) kann.

    I can't suggest suitable German translations but I can say that the whole sentence is awful English. "Sum" in particular is badly used here.

    English synonyms might be:
    viable = able to support life.
    sum = amount to.

    Viel Glück

    I totally agree - terrible English. But I think this is a case where it is not possible to do a word by word translation in order to get a proper German phrase. Here is a suggestion:

    Fuer viele grosse Saeugetiere und einige Vogelarten, ueberlebenswichtig Habitate sind groessenabhaengig, trotz der Tatsache, dass die Region in einem Land ein relative grosses Gebiet einnimmt.
