Impacts of global climate change on the floras of oceanic islands – Projections, implications and current knowledge (2015, background): “…et al., 2013), expiration of control of herbivore or parasite populations by particular predators (Wilmers et al., 2006; Spiller and Schoener, 2007; Thomson et al., 2010), alteration of plant community structures essential for microclimate (Roux et al., 2005; Royer et al., 2011), lack of…”
How climate change affects the seasonal ecology of insect parasitoids (2020, background): “…explore the response of multiple species within a food web, because changes in phenology (e.g. diapause expression) can translate into modifications in the strength, occurrence, and frequency of multi-trophic interactions (Davis et al., 1998; Thomson et al., 2010; Gilbert et al., 2014).”
Pests and diseases in a changing climate a major challenge for Finnish crop production (2008, background): “Due to varying conditions and time scales definitive effects of these interactions will be difficult to predict (Thomson et al. 2009).”
Mitigating the effects of insecticides on arthropod biological control at field and landscape scales (2014, background): “Increasing reproductive potential of crop pests may be counteracted by similar increases in natural enemies, although phenological mismatches can cause unexpected dynamics in the levels of biological control (Parmesan, 2006; Thompson et al., 2010; Welch and Harwood, 2014).”
Grapevine insect pests and their natural enemies in the age of global warming (2016, background): “Climate change will influence tri-trophic interactions between plants, herbivores and antagonists in various and complex ways (Thomson et al. 2010).”
Bats in the Anthropogenic Matrix: Challenges and Opportunities for the Conservation of Chiroptera and Their Ecosystem Services in Agricultural Landscapes (2016, background): “…production, but it will also likely lead to range expansions of tropical pests, increases in pest numbers and damage, with a parallel risk of a drop in the efficacy of pest suppression by natural enemies that might be negatively affected by climate change (Thomson et al. 2010; Bebber et al. 2013).”
Plant pathogens, insect pests and weeds in a changing global climate: a review of approaches, challenges, research gaps, key studies and concepts (2012, background): “In general, the interactions between crops and pests, their respective natural enemies and competitors are complex and poorly understood in the context of climate change (Thomson et al. 2010).”
Diapause research in insects: historical review and recent work perspectives (2019, background): “Thus, potential modifications in overwintering strategies, either of the pests or their natural enemies, can destabilize food webs andmodify (positively or negatively) the efficiency of biological control (Thomson et al., 2010; Furlong & Zalucki, 2017).”
Ecosystem services by birds and bees to coffee in a changing climate: A review of coffee berry borer control and pollination (2019, background): “CBB is a highly specialized herbivore whose distribution is restricted by both temperature and the availability of coffee host plants, so it is likely to follow the shifting distribution of coffee production (Jaramillo et al., 2009; Thomson et al., 2010).”
Linking plant phenology to conservation biology (2016, background): “Phenological mismatches between agricultural pest insects and their natural enemies due to climate change could also decrease the effectiveness of biocontrol measures (Thomson et al., 2010).”
