- Developing incentives and economic mechanisms for in situ biodiversity conservation in agricultural landscapes (2007, background): “At the same time, habitat fragmentation increases the risk of invasion by unwanted destructive off-farm species at the landscape level (Östman et al., 2003; Perrings, 2005).”
- Organic versus conventional systems in viticulture: Comparative effects on spiders and carabids in vineyards and adjacent forests (2015, background): “The increase, or even the mere preservation of species richness and abundance of spider and carabid predator guilds through organic farming may improve natural pest control, cntributing thereby to enhanced agricultural productivity (Östman et al., 2003).”
- Diversification Practices: Their Effect on Pest Regulation and Production (2008, unknown): “Although previous studies seem to be very promising, we have to take into account that those studies actively manipulate the presence of natural enemies in the field (Cardinale et al. 2003; Ostman et al. 2003), not reflecting what would happen in an agricultural setting.”
- Economic valuation of a seed dispersal service in the Stockholm National Urban Park, Sweden (2006, methodology): “For example, natural insect pest control services could be valued by the estimation of yield losses in agriculture or forestry in cases of absence of natural enemies, as proposed by Östman et al. (2003).”
- Efficacy and economics of shelter habitats for conservation biological control (2008, background): “For example, at the semi-field and field level numerous studies have shown that fungal pathogens, aphid specific predators, parasitoids and polyphagous predators can considerably reduce peak aphid numbers and/or yield loss (Chambers et al., 1986; Ostman et al., 2003; Schmidt et al., 2004; Winder et ”
- Land‐use intensity and the effects of organic farming on biodiversity: a hierarchical meta‐analysis (2014, background): “…that considerable uncertainty about ecological function exists for several groups: carabid beetles, for example, are often considered to provide pest control (€Ostman, Ekbom & Bengtsson 2001, 2003), but many species are known to be at least partly herbivorous seed eaters (Jonason et al. 2013).”
