• The use of camera‐trap data to model habitat use by antelope species in the Udzungwa Mountain forests, Tanzania (2008, background): “The Udzungwas are part of an internationally recognized hotspot for biodiversity conservation (Myers et al., 2000; Burgess et al., 2007), and have a diverse forest antelope community including at least five species: Harvey’s duiker Cephalophus harveyi, bushbuck Tragelaphus scriptus, suni Neotragus…”
• Ancient forest fragmentation or recent radiation? Testing refugial speciation models in chameleons within an African biodiversity hotspot (2011, background): “…(Parmesan, 2006; Chen et al., 2009; Forister et al., 2010), and substantial anthropogenic pressures that are already great enough to threaten unique floras and faunas (Brooks et al., 2002; Driver et al., 2005; Burgess et al., 2007; Menegon et al., 2008; Forister et al., 2010; Sinervo et al., 2010).”
• Targeted vertebrate surveys enhance the faunal importance and improve explanatory models within the Eastern Arc Mountains of Kenya and Tanzania (2014, methodology): “We compiled all new data on species occurrence from these surveys since 2005, by mountain block, and merged them with the baseline data set (Burgess et al., 2007).”
• The partitioning of Africa: statistically defined biogeographical regions in sub‐Saharan Africa (2012, background): “…consultations with more than 25 experts and visits to 12 museums in eight countries, as well as new fieldwork in the East African Region (e.g. Burgess et al., 1998a, 2007b; Brooks et al., 2001; de Klerk et al., 2002a,b; Fjeldså & Tushabe, 2005; Linder et al., 2005; Fjeldså et al., 2010;…”
• Getting ready for REDD+ in Tanzania: a case study of progress and challenges (2010, background): “The different forest types contain carbon in different densities (FBD, 2007) and also vary in their biological significance and value to people’s livelihoods (Burgess & Clarke, 2000; Burgess et al., 2007; Campbell et al., 2008; FBD, 2008; Kapos et al., 2008).”
