• Uncut grass refuges mitigate the impact of mechanical meadow harvesting on orthopterans (2012, background): “Similarly, immediate migration of spiders and staphylinid beetles (but not carabid beetles) following grass cutting has been noted by Thorbek and Bilde (2004).”
• Using selective food plants to maximize biological control of vineyard pests (2006, background): “…adjustment of the current form of habitat manipulation to increase its impact or for complementary approaches, such as revised crop management (Thorbek & Bilde 2004) and alterations to nearby non-crop vegetation (Schmidt et al. 2005), to be developed for predator enhancement, thereby…”
• Land-use effects on the functional distinctness of arthropod communities (2015, background): “Araneae communities in arable fields for example suffer from intense soil management (Thorbek and Bilde 2004) and species that prefer to live under stones or in cracks in the soil particularly benefit from the absence of tillage practices (Birkhofer et al.”
• Biological Control of Insect Pests in Agroecosystems: Effects of Crop Management, Farming Systems, and Seminatural Habitats at the Landscape Scale: A Review (2010, background): “Thorbek and Bilde (2004) studied the effects of different mechanical crop treatments on generalist predator arthropods and have found that these indirect effects (i.e., habitat deterioration) of soil cultivation may have a stronger overall impact on arthropod dynamics than direct mortality.”
• Arthropod pest management in organic crops. (2007, background): “, mechanical weed control and grass cutting) may reduce numbers of generalist arthropod predators, particularly spiders and staphylinid beetles (148).”
• The cropping systems mosaic: How does the hidden heterogeneity of agricultural landscapes drive arthropod populations? (2013, background): “Indirect effects exist, through shifts in environmental conditions (plant cover, soil, air, prey) due to cultivation practices, crop growth, and crop rotation (Franzluebbers et al., 1995; Doucet et al., 1999; Thorbek and Bilde, 2004).”
• Spillover edge effects: the dispersal of agriculturally subsidized insect natural enemies into adjacent natural habitats. (2006, background): “For example, generalist predators (spiders, carabid and staphylinid beetles) have been found to respond to a variety of crop management practices primarily by emigrating, which can result in the aggregation of predators in less disturbed habitats (Thorbek & Bilde 2004).”
• Vegetation increases the abundance of natural enemies in vineyards (2009, background): “These effects have been detected for a variety of enemies including parasitoids, spiders, beetles and predatory mites (Symondson et al., 2002; Thorbek and Bilde, 2004; Tsitsilas et al., 2006).”
• Landscape configuration, organic management, and within‐field position drive functional diversity of spiders and carabids (2018, background): “Thus, many species overwinter in field margins and colonize the arable fields from these seminatural habitats (Thorbek & Bilde, 2004).”
