Effects of Prairie Fragmentation on the Nest Success of Breeding Birds in the Midcontinental United States (2003, background): “Because edge effects in grassland birds appear to be most pronounced in areas 50 m from an edge ( Johnson & Temple 1990; Winter et al. 2000), these effects should have been most evident in prairies of 100 ha, the prairies with the highest ratios of edge to interior habitat.”
SURVIVAL OF POSTFLEDGING GRASSLAND BIRDS IN MISSOURI (2007, background): “In southern climates, such as southwestern Missouri, we observed juvenile Dickcissels and meadowlarks that appeared to succumb to heat waves (.35uC and .80% humidity) within a few hours if unable to find shelter under shrubs or dense clumps of vegetation.”
RECENT ADVANCES IN GRASSLAND BIRD RESEARCH: WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE? (2001, background): “…2000, Peer et al. 2000), 4 E-mail: pvickery@massaudubon.org edge effects (e.g. Helzer 1996, Delisle and Savidge 1997, Jensen 1999, O’Leary and Nyberg 2000, Winter et al. 2000), and area requirements (Herkert 1994, Vickery et al. 1994, Helzer and Jelinski 1999, Winter and Faaborg 1999, Bakker 2000).”
Spatial and temporal dynamics of turtle nest predation: edge effects (2002, result): “Though generalization of threshold values detected in this study should be made cautiously, the approximately 30–40 m threshold identified here corresponds to edge effects found in other studies with larger study sites ranging from 31 to 1084 ha (Winter et al. 2000).”
Tree and shrub invasion in northern mixed-grass prairie: implications for breeding grassland birds (2004, background): “In the tall-grass prairie, Winter et al. (2000) found higher predation rates for Henslow’s sparrow (Ammodramus henslowii) and dickcissel (Spiza americana) nests and higher brood-parasitism rates for dickcissel nests near shrubby edge, although they found no such effects for nests locat- ed near…”
Patch Size and Landscape Effects on Density and Nesting Success of Grassland Birds (2006, methodology): “…would find that nesting success decreases with smaller patch size and with higher percentage of shrubs and trees in the landscape because such nests should be exposed to a larger number and variety of potential nest predators (e.g., Gates and Gysel 1978, Winter et al. 2000, Kuehl and Clark 2002).”
MIXED-GRASS PRAIRIE PASSERINES EXHIBIT WEAK AND VARIABLE RESPONSES TO PATCH SIZE (2006, background): “Although factors infl uencing area-sensitivity have not been explored in most grassland systems (but see Winter et al. 2000), previous research has found that several grassland bird species are found more o en and in higher abundance in relatively large parcels of remnant grassland habitat (Vickery…”
EDGE AVOIDANCE BY NESTING GRASSLAND BIRDS: A FUTILE STRATEGY IN A FRAGMENTED LANDSCAPE (2005, background): “…nest density or fewer territories near edges than in the patch interior, include Henslow’s Sparrow (Ammodramus henslowii; O’Leary and Nyberg 2000, Winter et al. 2000), Grasshopper Sparrow (A. savannarum; Delisle and Savidge 1996, O’Leary and Nyberg 2000), Eastern Meadowlark (Sturnella magna;…”
Predation rate on artificial nests increases with human housing density in suburban habitats (2003, background): “The deleterious effect of edges often extends 30 ‐50 m or more into adjacent habitat patches (Brand and George 2000, Winter et al. 2000 ).”
