• Effects of landscape composition, habitat features, and nest distribution on predation rates of simulated turtle nests (2004, background): “The type of edge likely influences predator activity and thus rates of predation (Heske et al., 1999; Dijak and Thompson, 2000).”
• Predator Activity Related to Landscape Features in Northern Iowa (2002, methodology): “Previous studies have identified various landscape composition variables such as farms (Lariviere and Messier 1998), woodland (Pedlar et al. 1997, Dijak and Thompson 2000), grassland (Clark et al. 1999, Greenwood et al. 1999), wetland (Greenwood et al. 1999, Phillips 2001), and pastureland…”
• Effects of Prairie Fragmentation on the Nest Success of Breeding Birds in the Midcontinental United States (2003, background): “Some of these nest predators can be more common near edges in some landscapes (e.g., Dijak & Thompson 2000; Winter et al. 2000), but several nest predators such as mice and snakes are not known to be influenced by fragmentation at the scales we considered.”
• Spatial and Temporal Structure of a Mesocarnivore Guild in Midwestern North America (2015, background): “In more natural settings, raccoons select forest edges near agricultural land and streams, especially those areas with higher concentrations of den and resting sites (Dijak and Thompson 2000, Wilson and Nielsen 2007).”
• USING THE SPATIAL AND SPECTRAL PRECISION OF SATELLITE IMAGERY TO PREDICT WILDLIFE OCCURRENCE PATTERNS (2005, background): “These components include vegetation structure (Collins, 1983; Collins et al., 1982; Probst et al., 1992; Smith & Shugart, 1987) and landscape factors such as edge effects, patch sizes and patch isolation (Dijak & Thompson, 2000; Kotliar & Wiens, 1990; Sisk & Haddad, 2002).”
• Nest Predation and Population Declines in Illinois Songbirds: a Case for Mesopredator Effects (2003, background): “…and the conversion of natural habitats to agricultural land—resulting in large quantities of unharvested grain—are all known to increase densities of mesopredators (Soulé et al. 1988; Palomares et al. 1995; Pedlar et al. 1997; Crooks & Soulé 1999; Heske et al. 1999; Dijak & Thompson 2000 ).”
• Predation rate on artificial nests increases with human housing density in suburban habitats (2003, background): “Several studies have suggested that the relationships between habitat edges, predator abundance and nest predation may be both scale and landscape-specific ( Dijak and Thompson 2000, Lahti 2001, DeSanto and Willson 2001).”
• Nest Predators and Fragmentation: a Review and Meta‐Analysis (2002, background): “1994; Gardner 1998), rodents in 7% of tests (Rosenberg & Raphael 1986; Bayne & Hobson 1998), and medium and large mammals in 14% of tests ( Dijak & Thompson 2000).”
• A Hierarchical Analysis of Habitat Selection by Raccoons in Northern Indiana (2007, background): “Despite their general adaptability, raccoons are closely tied to forested habitats (Pedlar et al. 1997, Dijak and Thompson 2000, Chamberlain et al. 2003).”
