Spatial concordance between seed rain and seedling establishment in bird‐dispersed trees: does scale matter? (2005, background): “An unresolved question is whether the concordance patterns emerging at a given scale are the result of scalespecific mechanisms or, alternatively, the consequence of the accumulation of similar patterns at immediately smaller scales (Wiens 1989; García & Ortiz-Pulido 2004).”
Birds as agents of seed dispersal in a human-dominated landscape in southern Costa Rica (2008, background): “For instance, Garcia and Ortiz-Pulido (2004) showed that frugivore activity was positively correlated with fruit availability on the landscape scale, but not on the local scale.”
Fruit tracking between sites and years by birds in Mediterranean wintering grounds (2008, methodology): “We assumed that these data represented independent situations in which birds responded to the spatiotemporal heterogeneity of fruit resources (for a similar approach see Garcı́a and Ortiz-Pulido 2004).”
Global patterns in fruiting seasons (2008, background): “A second explanation might be that the processes occurring on smaller, regional scales may be different from the processes operating at the global scale (see Blackburn & Gaston, 2002; Aukema, 2004; Burns, 2004; Garcia & Ortiz-Pulido, 2004 ).”
Seed dispersal by a frugivorous marsupial shapes the spatial scale of a mistletoe population (2009, background): “Thus, our data suggest a scale-dependent fruit-resource tracking by the marsupial, as previously evidenced for other vertebrate frugivores (García & Ortiz-Pulido 2004; Saracco et al. 2004).”
Quantifying habitat use and preferences of pelagic seabirds using individual movement data: a review (2009, methodology): “…of the scale at which the phenomenon of interest occurs, then this can be determined either during exploratory data analysis using indirect techniques such as first-passage time analysis (see ‘Behavior’), or by adopting a multi-scale approach (e.g. Garcia & Ortiz-Pulido 2004, Suryan et al. 2006).”
Seed dispersal effectiveness revisited: a conceptual review. (2010, background): “For example, the degree to which frugivorous birds spatially and temporally track variable fruit crops (Herrera, 1998; Garcı́a & Ortiz-Pulido, 2004; Hampe, 2008; Tellerı́a et al., 2008; Lehouck et al., 2009) will affect how variable assemblages are on the quantitative axis of the SDE landscape.”
