Sampling Hubbell's neutral theory of biodiversity (2004, unknown): “These geographical patterns typically covary with temperature and/or water availability (or related variables) with coefficients of determination between 70 and 90% (Wright et al. 1993; Hawkins et al. 2003a).”
Broad‐scale patterns of body size in squamate reptiles of Europe and North America (2006, methodology): “Because of the strong relationship between AET and plant productivity at large scales, this variable has been used as a proxy for productivity (Rosenzweig, 1968b; Lieth, 1975; Hawkins et al., 2003; Hawkins, 2004).”
Spatial species‐richness gradients across scales: a meta‐analysis (2009, background): “biome area); the studies by Turner et al. (1988) and Hawkins et al. (2003b) are exceptions.”
Environment–richness relationships for mammals, birds, reptiles, and amphibians at global and regional scales (2010, background): “…on vertebrate richness shift from water constraints at low latitudes to ambient energy at high latitudes (‘water–energy dynamics hypothesis’, Hawkins et al. 2003a, 2007a), which has previously been documented in a global model of bird richness (Hawkins et al. 2003b) and is indirectly…”
The significance of geographic range size for spatial diversity patterns in Neotropical palms (2006, methodology): “The strong relationship between overall species richness and water or energy related variables agrees with numerous previous studies (compare Hawkins et al. 2003a).”
Climatic history and dispersal ability explain the relative importance of turnover and nestedness components of beta diversity (2012, background): “The effect of this relatively recent environmental change (glaciations) was found to be important in the determination of the diversity (alpha and beta) patterns for several groups (Hawkins & Porter, 2003; Jansson, 2003; Araújo et al., 2008; Baselga, 2008; Davies et al., 2009).”
Analysis of determinants of mammalian species richness in South America using spatial autoregressive models (2004, methodology): “In fact, there are at least two versions of the energy hypothesis (Hawkins et al. 2003).”
Bird species richness patterns of northern Taiwan: primary productivity, human population density, and habitat heterogeneity (2006, background): “The ‘energy hypothesis’ has received a great deal of attention in the past 20 years (Hawkins et al ., 2003; Currie et al ., 2004; Evans et al ., 2005).”
