Mapping human pressures on biodiversity across the planet uncovers anthropogenic threat complexes (2020, background): “These five main drivers have been linked with changes in multiple dimensions of biodiversity, including genetic diversity, species' population sizes, community richness and ecosystem functioning (Pereira et al., 2012).”
Approaches to defining a planetary boundary for biodiversity (2014, background): “Furthermore, despite much evidence for loss of regional and global diversity and abundance (Butchart et al., 2010; Pereira et al., 2012), there is little evidence of declines in local species richness over time (Dornelas et al.”
Addressing future trade-offs between biodiversity and cropland expansion to improve food security (2016, background): “tation of natural habitats is the globally more dominant driver of biodiversity loss, particularly in highly biodiverse tropical and subtropical regions (Foley et al. 2005; Hosonuma et al. 2012; Pereira et al. 2012).”
