Green corridors in urban landscapes affect the arthropod communities of domestic gardens (2012, background): “The role of urbanisation should be investigated as is known to strongly affect the diversity of woodland carabids (Croci et al., 2008; Gaublomme et al., 2008; Magura et al., 2010; Small et al., 2006).”
The influence of native versus exotic streetscape vegetation on the spatial distribution of birds in suburbs and reserves (2013, background): “The role of habitat-enhancing practices at the suburb-scale, for example, neighbourhood parks (Croci et al., 2008; Stagoll et al., 2010), and the residential-scale, for example, private gardens (Catterall, 2004; Evans et al.”
Novel urban ecosystems, biodiversity, and conservation. (2011, background): “Generally, less mobile species seem to be sensitive to fragmentation, which usually increases towards urban centers, while mobile species such as birds or bees are more affected by habitat features (e.g., Marzluff, 2001; Angold et al., 2006; Croci et al., 2008; Kearns and Oliveras, 2009).”
A comparison of 3 types of green roof as habitats for arthropods (2013, result): “This is a surprising result because previous studies highlighted its strong effect on arthropod communities in urban areas (Croci et al., 2008; Penone et al., 2012; Vergnes et al., 2012).”
Climatic variability and landscape heterogeneity impact urban mosquito diversity and vector abundance and infection (2011, background): “Several studies have demonstrated that landscape heterogeneity can impact the diversity of organisms such as insects (Frankie and Ehler 1978, McIntyre 2000), birds (Blair 1996, Loss et al. 2009b) and more generally whole communities of plants and animals (Tait et al. 2005, Croci et al. 2008).”
Non-native species in urban environments: patterns, processes, impacts and challenges (2017, background): “Many urban areas have high levels of biodiversity and are therefore important foci for regional and global conservation efforts (e.g. Miller and Hobbs 2002; Kühn et al. 2004; Croci et al. 2008; Kowarik 2011).”
