Interactive effects of anthropogenic nitrogen enrichment and climate change on terrestrial and aquatic biodiversity (2013, background): “…in biodiversity, as natural areas have been converted to agricultural or urban uses, patterns of wildfires and other disturbances have been altered, and new species have been introduced into ecosystems (MEA 2005; Sala et al. 2000; McKee et al. 2004; Alkemade et al. 2009; van Oorschot et al. 2010).”
Biodiversity, Governance, and the Allocation of International Aid for Conservation (2013, background): “The association may also show that donors target aid to coun- tries with larger populations because biodiversity is perceived to be under greater threat in such places (McKee et al. 2004).”
Forecasting faunal and floral homogenization associated with human population geography in North America (2006, background): “First, a wealth of empirical evidence supports strong associations between human population size and the number of threatened/extinct and introduced species (e.g., Kerr and Currie, 1995; Kirkland and Ostfeld, 1999; McKinney, 2001a; McKee et al., 2003).”
Extinction Rates in North American Freshwater Fishes, 1900–2010 (2012, background): “…whether it was the last fish to disappear in the twentieth September 2012 / Vol. 62 No. 9 www.biosciencemag.org sites or whose ranges are truncated by large impoundments are probably more vulnerable to future extinction because of exposure to multiple stressors (McKinney 2002, McKee et al. 2004).”
International Trade Status and Crisis for Snake Species in China (2004, background): “According to McKee et al. (2003), 87.9% of the variation in the numbers of threatened species of mammals and birds can be accounted for by human population density and species richness.”
