The breeding performance of raptors in urban landscapes: a review and meta-analysis (2017, background): “The importance of prey abundance for the breeding performance of small mammaleating birds has been described in various raptor species (e.g. Korpimäki and Hakkarainen 1990; Korpimäki and Norrdahl 1991; Salamolard et al. 2000; Sundell et al. 2004).”
Roles of Raptors in a Changing World: From Flagships to Providers of Key Ecosystem Services (2016, background): “Furthermore, there are abundant empirical studies about how raptor abundance or raptor rodent consumption relates to rodent population density (e.g. Korpimäki, 1985; Salamolard et al., 2000; Bernard et al., 2009; Millon et al., 2014).”
Application of thermodynamic principles in ecology (2004, methodology): “Examples of the case studies he examines are the allocation of biomass to maximize early growth (McConnaughay and Coleman, 1999), variation in number of species with latitude and area (Lyons and Willig, 2000), effect of chemical substances on food benefits to herbivores (Schmidt, 2000), increase in ”
Capital-breeding and reproductive effort in a variable environment: a longitudinal study of a viviparous snake (2002, result): “This estimator of food levels provides results that are consistent with those from line trapping; for example, the same annual peaks in vole density are detected by both methods (Bonnet et al. 2000; Salamolard et al. 2000 ).”
Diet specialisation and foraging efficiency under fluctuating vole abundance: a comparison between generalist and specialist avian predators (2011, unknown): “The Montagu’s harrier is considered as a generalist raptor species that hunts for a wide variety of prey types, although it may favour certain prey in particular areas (Arroyo 1997), including voles in some parts of Western Europe (Salamolard et al. 2000).”
Response of the small mammal community to changes in western French agricultural landscapes (2003, background): “Conversely, these species also constitute the main prey biomass that directly influence abundance and diversity of predator species (Butet and Leroux 1993, 2001; Salamolard et al. 2000) and thus contribute to the complexity of food webs (Korpimaki and Norrdahl 1991).”
