Energy Development Affects Populations of Sagebrush Songbirds in Wyoming (2011, background): “Songbird population declines may be driven by increased nest predation risk as generalist predators become more abundant in human-altered areas (Chalfoun et al. 2002).”
Multi-scale models of grassland passerine abundance in a fragmented system in Wisconsin (2008, background): “This is especially relevant for studies assessing effects of habitat fragmentation (e.g., Chalfoun et al. 2002 ), and has been recommended specifically for grassland bird species (Koper and Schmiegelow 2006).”
Predation rate on artificial nests increases with human housing density in suburban habitats (2003, background): “…1969, Hatchwell et al. 1999, Buler and Hamilton 2000, Knutson et al. 2000) and has thus become a focus of many studies examining the impacts of habitat alterations on avian demography, especially that of habitat fragmentation and edge effects (for reviews see Paton 1994 and Chalfoun et al. 2002).”
Sex and sociality in a disconnected world: A review of the impacts of habitat fragmentation on animal social interactions (2007, background): “Conversely, increased predation in fragmented habitat, particularly associated with edge effects and (or) exposure to feral predators, has also been detected (Kareiva 1987; Chalfoun et al. 2002; Ries et al. 2004).”
Responses of invasive predators and native prey to a prescribed forest fire (2017, background): “In addition, predators are sometimes able to exploit the edges of dense habitat more effectively than the interior (Chalfoun et al. 2002).”
Spillover of functionally important organisms between managed and natural habitats (2012, background): “Although there have been no fewer than six review papers (Paton, 1994; Andrén, 1995; Hartley and Hunter, 1998; Soderstrom, 1999; Chalfoun et al., 2002; Lahti, 2009) on the subject in the last two decades, this literature has not succeeded in producing a consensus as to what effect being near a…”
Predictors of Species Sensitivity to Fragmentation (2004, background): “Predator effects were more prevalent in tests conducted at the landscape than at the local scale, in agricultural landscapes than in predominantly forested landscapes, and for avian predators than for mammalian predators (Chalfoun et al. 2002).”
Alternatives to statistical hypothesis testing in ecology: a guide to self teaching. (2006, background): “…(Gelman et al. 1995), and have recently been extensively used in fisheries (Hilborn and Liermann 1998, Myers 2001, Myers et al. 2001, 2002, Dorn 2002) and ecology (Bender et al. 1998, Connor et al. 2000, Schmitz et al. 2000, Chalfoun et al. 2002, Fahrig 2002, Hillebrand and Cardinale 2004).”
Hypotheses to explain patterns of population change among breeding bird species in England (2010, background): “Predation or lack of nesting sitesmay also limit populations of species if for instance habitat change exposes them to greater risk (Martin and Clobert, 1996; Chalfoun et al., 2002; Gregory et al., 2007).”
