Distribution and activity of bats at local and landscape scales within a rural–urban gradient (2008, background): “Bat habitat selection may occur as a hierachical series of decisions, beginning at the geographic or landscape scale and ending at the local or home-range scale (Johnson 1980; Ford et al. 2006; Loeb and O'Keefe 2006).”
Positive effects of forest fragmentation, independent of forest amount, on bat abundance in eastern Ontario, Canada (2011, background): “However, studies have suggested that increasing the level of heterogeneity [the spatial complexity and variability of different land cover types ( Li and Reynolds 1995 )] in agricultural landscapes should have a positive effect on bat abundance and distribution (Loeb and O’Keefe 2006; Yates and Muzi”
Bat activity in relation to fire and fire surrogate treatments in southern pine stands (2008, unknown): “Although bat activity in our study was relatively low, it was comparable to activity levels in the Upper Piedmont and Mountains of South Carolina (Loeb and O'Keefe, 2006).”
Roost tree selection by northern myotis (Myotis septentrionalis) maternity colonies following prescribed fire in a Central Appalachian Mountains hardwood forest (2009, background): “Although it is unclear if prescribed fire creates a net increase in roost tree density in the long-term, a spatial mosaic of prescribed fire of <25-year return intervals might provide a continuum of forest and roosting conditions throughout the landscape (Ford et al., 2006a; Loeb and O’Keefe, 2006).”
