- The evolutionary ecology of senescence (2008, background): “Such phenotypic changes can be difficult to recognise and might be minimal in some taxa (see Ricklefs 2008 ).”
- Daily torpor and hibernation in birds and mammals (2014, unknown): “…predator avoidance may help to explain why both hibernators and daily heterotherms have relatively low body masses, compared to terrestrial mammals on average: large mammals have fewer predators and extrinsic mortality decreases as body mass increases (Owen-Smith & Mills, 2008; Ricklefs, 2008).”
- Stress Indicators in Fish (2016, background): “organismal senescence, has become an emerging field of research (Ricklefs, 2008; Monaghan et al., 2009).”
- Oxidative stress as a mediator of life history trade-offs: mechanisms, measurements and interpretation. (2009, background): “…idea that oxidative stress may cause cellular senescence has proved extremely influential, prompting intense research into the relationships between oxidative stress, senescence (both cellular and at the level of the organism) and lifespan (Beckman & Ames 1998; Monaghan et al. 2008; Ricklefs 2008).”
- Measuring senescence in wild animal populations: towards a longitudinal approach (2008, background): “The distinction between ‘intrinsic’ and ‘extrinsic’ contributions to mortality may not be useful in most field studies, where decompositions of senescence into these components is, at best, challenging, and likely impossible (see Ricklefs 2008 for an alternative view).”
