• Beringia as a glacial refugium for boreal trees and shrubs: new perspectives from mapped pollen data (2005, background): “During Quaternary glaciations, many plant taxa of the northern hemisphere were restricted to small areas outside their present ranges (e.g. Bennett et al., 1991; Webb et al., 1993; Jackson et al., 2000; Thompson & Anderson, 2000; Williams et al., 2000).”
• Of mice, mastodons and men: human-mediated extinctions on four continents (2004, background): “However, there is little evidence for the wholesale reorganization of vegetation or mammalian communities; most did not disappear altogether, but simply shifted location (Webb, 1981, 1992; Overpeck et al., 1992; Alroy, 1999; Edwards et al., 2000; Elenga et al., 2000; Prentice and Jolly, 2000; Takaha”
• Quaternary pollen analysis: recent progress in palaeoecology and palaeoclimatology (2003, background): “…of papers published in Quaternary Science Reviews (Jolly et al., 1998; Prentice et al.,. 1998; Williams et al., 1998) and Journal of Biogeography (Thompson and Anderson, 2000; Edwards et al., 2000; Elenga et al., 2000; Prentice et al., 2000; Takahara et al., 2000; Tarasov et al., 2000b; Williams…”
• Conservatism of ecological niche characteristics in North American plant species over the Pleistocene‐to‐Recent transition (2006, unknown): “…samples of vegetative material or pollen are used to characterize biomes across broad regions (Wells, 1983; Jackson & Overpeck, 2000; Jackson et al., 2000; Thompson & Anderson, 2000; Edwards et al., 2003), which provides a broad brush-stroke picture of patterns of range shifts in changing climates.”
• Population genetic structure reveals terrestrial affinities for a headwater stream insect (2007, background): “Indeed, paleoecological studies suggest that as recently as c. 10 000 years ago woodlands covered most of the region (Betancourt, Van Devender & Martin, 1990; Thompson & Anderson, 2000).”
• Pollen‐based reconstructions of biome distributions for Australia, Southeast Asia and the Pacific (SEAPAC region) at 0, 6000 and 18,000 14C yr BP (2004, methodology): “Macrofossil data from packrat middens have already been successfully used to reconstruct arid vegetation types in western North America (Thompson & Anderson, 2000).”
• A QUANTITATIVE ASSESSMENT OF THE RANGE SHIFTS OF PLEISTOCENE MAMMALS (2003, background): “Rather, analog vegetation and nonanalog vegetation are recognized (Edwards et al. 2000; Elenga et al. 2000; Overpeck et al. 1992; Prentice and Jolly 2000; Takahara et al. 2000; Tarasov et al. 2000; Thompson and Anderson 2000; Webb 1981, 1992; Williams et al. 2000, 2001; Yu et al. 2000).”
