- Patterns of Seed Dispersal and Dispersal Failure in a Hawaiian Dry Forest Having Only Introduced Birds (2010, background): “Like their global counterparts, which have experienced a significant loss in area (Murphy & Lugo 1986, Janzen 1988, Bullock et al. 1995), these Hawaiian communities have been reduced to ca 10 percent of their former cover (Mehrhoff 1998).”
- The role of tropical dry forests for biodiversity, carbon and water conservation in the neotropics: lessons learned and opportunities for its sustainable management (2015, background): “…stability and maintenance of ecosystem services for rural communities (e.g. Ewel 1977; Brown and Lugo 1982; Murphy and Lugo 1986; Janzen 1988; Mooney et al. 1995; Trejo and Dirzo 2000; Frankie et al. 2004; Pennington et al. 2006; PortilloQuintero and Sanchez-Azofeifa 2010; Dirzo et al. 2011;…”
- A Phytogeographical Metaanalysis of the Semiarid Caatinga Domain in Brazil (2016, background): “SDTFs usually have fertile soils and are home to plants lacking adaptation to survive wildfires, as well as a wealth of succulent plant taxa, such as Cactaceae (Bullock et al., 1995; Sampaio, 1995; Pennington et al., 2000, 2006; Oliveira-Filho et al., 2013).”
- Long‐term fire exclusion and ant community structure in an Australian tropical savanna: congruence with vegetation succession (2006, background): “The dynamics of boundaries between rain forest and savanna is a key issue in tropical biogeography (Furley et al., 1992; Bullock et al., 1995; Bowman, 2000).”
- Principles of Natural Regeneration of Tropical Dry Forests for Restoration (2006, background): “A comprehensive review of SDTFs can be found in the book Seasonally Dry Tropical Forests (Bullock et al. 1995); distribution patterns and ecological characteristics are discussed by Murphy and Lugo (1986); and seed and seedling ecology in SDTF species are extensively reviewed by Khurana and Singh…”
- The diversification of eastern South American open vegetation biomes: Historical biogeography and perspectives (2011, background): “In common, all are seasonally stressed by drought, have vegetations adapted to these climatic conditions, unique biotas, complex mosaic-type distributions, and have received less research attention than tropical wet forests (Furley and Metcalfe, 2007; Mooney et al., 1995).”
