Ecogeographical rules: elements of a synthesis (2008, background): “…abundance, temporal variability in abundance, local extinction and genetic variation (e.g. Brown, 1984; Curnutt et al., 1996; Green et al., 1996; Doherty et al., 2003; Vucetich & Waite, 2003; Murphy et al., 2006; for reviews see Sagarin & Gaines, 2002; Gaston, 2003; Sagarin et al., 2006).”
Conserving biodiversity under climate change: the rear edge matters. (2005, background): “Although the utility of this paradigm at local to regional scales is generally accepted, recent empirical work has challenged its significance at broad geographical scales (Channell & Lomolino 1999; Sagarin & Gaines 2002a,b; Vucetich & Waite 2003).”
Evolutionary ecology at the extremes of species' ranges. (2010, positive): “These explanations are consistent with conventional wisdom, models, and empirical evidence which show that core populations are more abundant and less temporally variable than peripheral populations (Vecutich and Waite 2003).”
From hotspots to site protection: Identifying Marine Protected Areas for seabirds around the globe (2012, background): “naturally high numbers of individuals, low current and future anthropogenic impacts); (b) remnant suitable (or restorable) habitats with the potential for sustaining populations; and (c) viable parts of populations at the edges of species ranges that may be important for maintaining overall genetic ”
Genetic variation across species’ geographical ranges: the central–marginal hypothesis and beyond (2008, methodology): “Ultimately, the species is expected to achieve highest abundance at the geographical centre of the range, with populations becoming progressively smaller and more spatially isolated towards the range limits (Brussard 1984; Lawton 1993; Vucetich & Waite 2003).”
Marginal coral populations: the densest known aggregation of Pocillopora in the Galápagos Archipelago is of asexual origin (2014, background): “…specific predictions about the demographic properties and genetic diversity of marginal populations (Antonovics, 1976; Brussard, 1984; Lawton, 1993; Hoffmann and Blows, 1994; Lesica and Allendorf, 1995; Vucetich and Waite, 2003) such as those in the Tropical Eastern Pacific, Japan and the Red Sea.”
Genetic differentiation and secondary contact zone in the seagrass Cymodocea nodosa across the Mediterranean–Atlantic transition region (2008, background): “…be smaller and have lower genetic variability and higher extinction probability, and although supported by some empirical studies (e.g. ArnaudHaond et al., 2006), this view has been challenged by other empirical work (Channell & Lomolino, 2000; Sagarin & Gaines, 2002; Vucetich & Waite, 2003).”
