Positive effects of forest fragmentation, independent of forest amount, on bat abundance in eastern Ontario, Canada (2011, background): “Accordingly, studies have found that landscapes with more forest (and more potential roosting sites) have higher bat abundance and diversity (Humphrey 1975; Gehrt and Chelsvig 2003; Duchamp and Swihart 2008 ).”
Trait‐related responses to habitat fragmentation in Amazonian bats (2015, background): “In general, this trait appears to be a better predictor for open-space aerial insectivorous bats in the temperate zone (e.g. Boyles & Storm 2007; Duchamp & Swihart 2008).”
Moving in three dimensions: effects of structural complexity on occurrence and activity of insectivorous bats in managed forest stands (2012, background): “…relative abundance (hereafter: occurrence) of bats and individual bat species per experimental plot by considering the presence-only data during each of the 6-minute transect sections (point-stops and 100-m transects; Duchamp & Swihart 2008; Estrada-Villegas, Meyer & Kalko 2010; Jung&Kalko 2011).”
Urbanisation and Its Effects on Bats—A Global Meta-Analysis (2016, background): “Anthropogenic changes in urban ecosystems typically occur at rates drastically faster than long-lived organisms are capable of adapting to, and thus disrupt ecological processes that historically governed community structure (Duchamp and Swihart 2008).”
