Landscape--wildfire interactions in southern Europe: implications for landscape management. (2011, result): “For example, Van Doorn and Baker (2007), in a region of southern Portugal, registered a 75% decline in the area of agricultural fields during the period 1985-2000, and an increase in matorral (shrubland) and forest plantations.”
Global Biodiversity Change: The Bad, the Good, and the Unknown (2012, background): “For instance, the conversion of farmland into forest may lead to the decline of farmland bird populations but result in a population increase of forest species (17, 18).”
Past, present and future of wild ungulates in relation to changes in land use (2010, background): “Agriculture is the most widespread type of land use in Europe, so any change in this can produce environmental changes that affect species diversity and distributions (e.g. Moreira and Russo 2007).”
Reshaping agri-environmental subsidies: From marginal farming to large-scale rewilding (2015, background): “For instance, it has been argued that many open-habitat species are fully dependent on agricultural activities such as mowing and livestock grazing (Moreira & Russo, 2007; Halada et al., 2011).”
Predicted impact of climate change on European bats in relation to their biogeographic patterns (2010, background): “In fact, habitat loss or alteration is currently recognized as one of the major causes of the extinction of species (Moreira & Russo, 2007).”
The effects of modern war and military activities on biodiversity and the environment (2015, background): “1963; Craft 1964) that may extend the immediate population and (or) diversity reduction outside of the blast area for both plants (Noble and Slatyer 1980; Rowell and Moore 2000; Grace and Keeley 2006) and animals (Singer et al. 1989; Kaufman et al. 1990; Moreira and Russo 2007; Lindenmayer et al. 20”
