Economic prosperity, biodiversity conservation, and the environmental Kuznets curve (2009, unknown): “Only two prior studies have provided any support for an EKC for biodiversity, and that support was limited to birds (Naidoo and Adamowicz, 2001; McPherson and Nieswiadomy, 2005) and mammals (McPherson and Nieswiadomy, 2005).”
The Value of Biodiversity (2013, background): “…significant relation between the natural log of per capita income and the number of threatened species that is linear in the case of plants; ‘‘U’’ shaped in the case of amphibians, reptiles, fishes and invertebrates, and inverted ‘‘U’’ shaped in the case of birds (Naidoo and Adamowicz, 2001).”
Ecologically Unequal Exchange, World Polity, and Biodiversity Loss (2009, background): “Despite this alarming trend and the availability of data on threatened mammal species, there has been little cross-national research on the topic – see Hoffmann (2004), Naidoo and Adamowicz (2001) and Noos and Cooperrider (1994) as notable exceptions.”
Pathways of ornamental and aquarium fish introductions into urban ponds of Epping Forest (London, England): the human vector* (2005, background): “With the increasing affluence of British society in the late 20th century, the pressure on threatened species is expected to increase (Naidoo and Adamowicz, 2001) as the importance of introduced non-native species increases (Fig.”
