A comparison of 3 types of green roof as habitats for arthropods (2013, background): “…et al., 2006), we selected 30 classes that could be considered as potential habitats for arthropods that reside on green roofs: open and semi-open natural habitats, such as grasslands, sandy beaches and dunes, and their analogs, such as crops, urban parks and quarries (Tropek et al., 2010).”
Lucerne‐dominated fields recover native grass diversity without intensive management actions (2011, background): “Litter accumulation can also be negative as litter can reduce the micro-topographical heterogeneity (Tropek et al. 2010), and decrease the availability of colonisation sites (Jensen & Gutekunst 2003), which can stabilise the community in an undesirable state (Hobbs et al.”
MINI‐REVIEW: Habitat analogues for reconciliation ecology in urban and industrial environments (2010, background): “colonization by most propagules immigrating from adjacent remnant ecosystems, yet extraction sites are excellent locations for observing highly diverse assemblages typical of distant rocky outcrops and coastal sand dunes, including rare and endemic species (Davis 1976; Rehounková & Prach 2010; Trope”
