Hotspots of species richness, threat and endemism for terrestrial vertebrates in SW Europe (2011, background): “Species distribution We collected data on the distribution of 398 vertebrate species in the form of extent of occurrence (hereafter EOO; sensu Gaston and Fuller, 2009): 84 mammals (72 species from Schipper et al., 2008; 12 species whose distribution was uncertain in Schipper et al., 2008 from…”
Drought-driven change in wildlife distribution and numbers: a case study of koalas in south west Queensland (2011, background): “However, within a geographic range, there is a complex internal structure of distribution, often termed the area of occupancy, which reflects finer scale variations in habitat suitability, local and metapopulation dynamics and legacies of past events (Brown et al. 1996; Gaston and Fuller 2009).”
Subpopulations, locations and fragmentation: applying IUCN red list criteria to herbarium specimen data (2010, background): “Some attention has been given to comparing different range measures (Burgman and Fox 2003; Willis et al. 2003; Hernandez et al. 2006; Callmander et al. 2007; Gaston and Fuller 2009), however, there is no”
Will climate change promote future invasions? (2013, background): “We only considered abiotic variables, our analyses disregarded dispersal capacities, biotic interactions, and opportunity of invasive alien species introduction (Gaston & Fuller, 2009).”
Important Plant Areas: revised selection criteria for a global approach to plant conservation (2017, background): “There are a number of ways in which a species’ range can be deﬁned (see, e.g., Gaston and Fuller 2008) and we do not wish to be overly prescriptive in how this should be calculated, as it will depend in part upon how much data are available for a particular species as to how accurately the range…”
Weed Abundance, Distribution, Diversity, and Community Analyses (2015, unknown): “The extent of occurrence is the entire area that lies within the outer boundaries of a range (Gaston and Fuller 2009).”
Using species distribution models to inform IUCN Red List assessments (2014, background): “We may have been fortunate that our predictions of range extent using limited abiotic data enabled reliable predictions of the EOO for our species in which historical factors and dispersal limitation were not essential for their range extents (Gaston and Fuller 2009).”
Habitat availability for amphibians and extinction threat: a global analysis (2015, methodology): “In this case, the knowledge of relationships between species and habitat is derived from expert knowledge and from the literature, to obtain ordinal scales of habitat suitability (Rondinini et al., 2006; Gaston & Fuller, 2009).”
